Tax Treaties: Canada Has 92 of Them in Force

Most recently, on January 15, Canada and Taipei signed an Arrangement for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, based on standards developed by the OECD for the exchange of tax information.
