Abstract
This paper adopts the view that the beneficial ownership concept in taxation should not be interpreted by reference to domestic laws of any state as provided under Article 3(2) of the OECD Model Code. It argues that because the beneficial ownership concept is a specific anti-avoidance provision, it should take its colour from an International Fiscal Meaning. Contracting State may then introduce elaborate anti-abuse provisions when negotiating tax treaties.
