WHAT IS DOUBLE TAXATION?

DOUBLE TAXATION, DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL  — Domestic double taxation arises when comparable taxes are imposed within a federal state by sovereign tax jurisdictions of equal rank. International double taxation arises when comparable taxes are imposed in two or more states on the same taxpayer in respect of the same taxable income or capital, e.g. where income is taxable in the source country and in the country of residence of the recipient of such income.
DOUBLE TAXATION, ECONOMIC AND JURIDICAL  — Double taxation is juridical when the same person is taxed twice on the same income by more than one state. Double taxation is economic if more than one person is taxed on the same item.
