Bab 5 PERBANDINGAN TAX TREATY DALAM MODEL OECD, UN, DAN MODEL INDONESIA

UN OECD

Model yang dikembangkan untuk memperjuangkan kepentingan negara-negara berkembang, sehingga prinsip sumber penghasilan tergambar dalam model ini.

Model yang dikembangkan oleh negara-negara Eropa Barat, prinsip yang digunakan adalah azas pengenaan pajak domisili.

Negara Indonesia dalam kebijakan di bidang persetujuan penghindaran pajak berganda atau P3B menggunakan campuran antara kedua model tersebut dan Undang-Undang Pajak Penghasilan. Menurut Rachmanto Surachmat, Indonesia menggunakan Model Indonesia yang dijadikan pijakan dalam perundingan P3B.1

Perjanjian perpajakan mula-mula dicetuskan pada tahun 1921 oleh Liga Bangsa-Bangsa. Model ini merupakan dasar dari model yang dibuat pada tahun 1928 yang dipakai oleh negara-negara yang kemudian tergabung dalam 1 Rachmanto Surahmat, Persetujuan Penghindaran Pajak Berganda, sebuah pengantar, PT. Gramedia, Hal.4

88 BAB 5: Perbandingan Tax Treaty dalam Model OECD, UN, dan Model Indonesia

Organization For Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) yang semula merupakan konvensi bilateral yang tergabung dalam The Council of the Organization for European Economic Cooperation (OEEC) dengan 70 anggota negara.

Model ini kemudian disempurnakan dalam Model Mexico pada tahun 1943 dan Model London tahun 1946. Komite Fiskal dalam OECD kemudian membuat draft konvensi guna memecahkan permasalahan pajak ganda agar dapat diterima oleh semua anggota OECD, kemudian pada tahun 1963 dibuatlah laporan final dengan judul Draft Double Taxation Convention on Income and Capital yang diubah lagi pada tahun 1992, 1997, 2000, dan terakhir 2005.

Kemudian untuk perjanjian tax treaty negara berkembang, dibuat oleh The Economic and Social Council of the United Nations, pada tahun 1967. Pada tahun 1980 dikembangkan lagi dan namanya berubah menjadi The Group of Experts yang terdiri dari 25 anggota negara, 10 negara maju dan 15 negara yang sedang berkembang. Kemudian diubah lagi pada tahun 1974 dan 1979. Pada tahun 1979 The Group of Expert me-review lagi draft United Nations Model Convention. Diubah lagi pada tahun 1995, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 dan terakhir 2005.

Model Indonesia adalah model P3B yang merupakan pengembangan dari kedua model tersebut, yaitu UN dan OECD.

2. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 3, where an enterprise of a Contracting State carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein, there shall in each Contracting State be attributed to that permanent establishment the profits which it might be expected to make if it were a distinct and separate enterprise engaged in the same or similar activities under the same or similar conditions and dealing wholly independently with the enterprise of which it is a permanent establishment.


3. In the determination of the profits of a permanent establishment, there shall be allowed as deductions expenses which are incurred for the purposes of the business of the permanent establishment including executive and general administrative expenses so incurred, whether in the State in which the permanent establishment is situated or elsewhere.

6. Where profits include items of income which are dealt with separately in other articles of this Convention, then the provisions of those articles shall not be affected by the provisions of this article.

(NOTE: The question of whether profits should be attributed to a permanent establishment by reason of the mere purchase by that permanent

2. Where a Contracting State includes in the profits of an enterprise of that State -- and taxes accordingly -- profits on which an enterprise of the other Contracting State has been charged to tax in that other State and the profits so included are profits which would have accrued to the enterprise of the

In determining such adjustment, due regard shall be had to the other provisions of the Convention and the competent authorities of the Contracting States shall, if necessary, consult each other.

METHODS FOR THE ELIMINATION OF DOUBLE TAXATION

Article 23 A

EXEMPTION METHOD

1. Where a resident of a Contracting State derives income or owns capital which, in accordance with the provisions of this Convention, may be taxed in the other Contracting State, the first-mentioned State shall, subject to the provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3, exempt such income or capital from tax.

2. Where a resident of a Contracting State derives items of income which, in accordance with the provisions of articles 10, 11 and 12, may be taxed in the other Contracting State, the first-mentioned State shall allow as a deduction from the tax on the income of that resident an amount equal to the tax paid in that other State. Such deduction shall not, however, exceed that part of the tax, as computed before the deduction is given, which is attributable to such items of income derived from that other State.

3. Where in accordance with any provision of this Convention income derived or capital owned by a resident of a Contracting State is exempt from tax in that State, such State may nevertheless, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income or capital of such resident, take into account the exempted income or capital.

Article 23 B

CREDIT METHOD

2 Where, in accordance with any provision of this Convention, income derived or capital owned by a resident of a Contracting State is exempt from tax in that State, such State may nevertheless, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income or capital of such resident, take into account the exempted income or capital.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

Article 24

NON-DISCRIMINATION

The case must be presented within three years from the first notification of the action resulting in taxation not in accordance with the provisions of the Convention.

2. The competent authority shall endeavour, if the objection appears to it to be justified and if it is not itself able to arrive at a satisfactory solution, to

The competent authorities shall, through consultation, develop appropriate conditions, methods and techniques concerning the matters in respect of which such exchanges of information shall be made, including, where appropriate, exchanges of information regarding tax avoidance.

2. In no case shall the provisions of paragraph 1 be construed so as to impose on a Contracting State the obligation:

b. to supply information which is not obtainable under the laws or in the normal course of the administration of that or of the other Contracting State;

Where a Contracting State includes in the profits of an enterprise of that State -- and taxes accordingly -- profits on which an enterprise of the other Contracting State has been charged to tax in that other State and the profits so included are profits which would have accrued to the enterprise of the first-mentioned State if the conditions made between the two enterprises had been those which would have been made between independent enterprises, then that other State shall make an appropriate adjustment to the amount of the tax charged therein on those profits. In determining such adjustment, due regard shall be had to the other provisions of this Convention and the competent authorities of the Contracting States shall if necessary consult each other.

In such case the provisions of Article 7 shall apply.

In such case the provisions of Article 7 shall apply.

5. Interest shall be deemed to arise in a Contracting State when the payer is a resident of that State. Where, however, the person paying the interest, whether he is a resident of a Contracting State or not, has in a Contracting State a permanent establishment in connection with which the indebtedness on which the interest is paid was incurred, and such interest is home by such permanent establishment, then such interest shall be


deemed to arise in the State in which the permanent establishment is situated.

6. Where, by reason of a special relationship between the payer and the beneficial owner or between both of them and some other person, the amount of the interest, having regard to the debt-claim for which it is paid, exceeds the amount which would have been agreed upon by the payer and the beneficial owner in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount.

In such case, the excess part of the payments shall


remain taxable according to the laws of each Contracting State, due regard being had to the other provisions of this Convention.

5. Menyimpang dari ketentuan-ketentuan yang diatur dalam pasal ayat 1 dan 2, adalah Orang atau badan disuatu negara (kecuali agen yang berdiri sendiri, dimana ketentuan ayat 7 berlaku) yang bertindak untuk kepentingan suatu perusahaan dari negara lain, maka perusahaan itu akan dianggap memiliki pendirian tetap di negara itu sehubungan dengan kegiatan-kegiatan yang dilakukan untuk perusahaan tersebut, apabila:

a. orang atau badan untuk memiliki kuasa untuk menandatangani kontrak atas nama perusahaan tersebut, kecuali bila kegiatan-kegiatan yang dilakukan terbatas pada yang disebut dalam ayat 4, yang meskipun dilakukan melalui suatu tempat usaha tetap, tempat tersebut bukan merupakan BUT sesuai dengan ketentuan tersebut; atau

b. tidak memiliki kuasa seperti itu, tetapi ia mempunyai kebiasaan menyimpan persediaan barang-barang atau barang dagangan kepunyaan dan secara teratur menyerahkan barang-barang tersebut atas nama perusahaan yang diwakilinya.

6. Menyimpang dari ketentuan-ketentuan yang diatur dalam pasal ini, suatu perusahaan asuransi di salah satu negara pada persetujuan, kecuali yang berkenaan dengan reasuransi, akan dianggap mempunyai BUT di negara lainnya apabila perusahaan tersebut memungut premi di negara domisili atau menanggung resiko yang terjadi di negara itu melalui seorang pegawai atau perwakilan yang bukan merupakan agen yang berdiri sendiri dalam arti menurut ayat 7.

7.

Penjelasan:

1. Pasal 5 ayat 1 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

Dengan demikian BUT memiliki karakteristik sebagai berikut: yaitu adanya tempat usaha berupa gedung atau pabrik dll., tempatnya bersifat tetap dan dalam menjalankan usahanya melalui tempat yang tetap tersebut.

2. Pasal 5 ayat 2 dan 3 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

BUT merupakan cabang perusahaan, atau tempat kedudukan manajemen, kantor, pabrik, tempat kerja atau suatu hak penambangan dan kekayaan alam lainnya. Dalam pengertian ini juga termasuk proyek pembuatan gedung atau konstruksi yang dilakukan dan melewati tes waktu yang ditentukan dalam Undang-undang di negara domisili, di Indonesia diatur dalam Pasal 2 ayat 5 bahwa untuk dianggap BUT, apabila mereka melakukan kegiatan di Indonesia lebih dari 183 hari dalam jangka waktu 12 bulan, sedangkan untuk pemberian jasa, waktu tes yang diberikan untuk menjadi BUT apabila jasa yang diberikan lebih dari 60 hari dalam jangka waktu 12 bulan.

3. Pasal 5 ayat 4 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

Penggunaan fasilitas-fasilitas semata-mata dengan maksud untuk menyimpan atau memamerkan barang-barang atau barang dagangan milik perusahaan, atau untuk diolah oleh perusahaan lain, atau untuk kegiatan yang bersifat persiapan atau penunjang tidak dianggap BUT, karena Subjek Pajak tersebut belum melakukan kegiatan usaha sebagaimana dimaksud dalam Pasal 2 ayat 5 UU PPh.

Perusahaan yang menjalankan kegiatan persiapan atau penunjang tentu belum memiliki hasil atau keuntungan di negara domisili, oleh karena itu wajar sekali jika belum dianggap sebagai BUT, untuk dapat dianggap sebagai subjek pajak kalau mereka telah mendirikan usaha dan berniat memperoleh penghasilan dari negara sumber.

4. Penjelasan Pasal 5 ayat 5 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

Orang atau Badan yang bertindak atas nama perusahaan dari negara lain dapat dianggap sebagai BUT, hal ini dapat dibuktikan dengan surat kuasa


untuk menandatangani kontrak atau tanpa surat kuasa namun dapat menyerahkan barang-barang dari perusahaan yang diwakilinya. Namun jika hanya menyimpan atau memamerkan barang-barang atau barang dagangan milik perusahaan, atau untuk diolah oleh perusahaan lain, atau untuk kegiatan yang bersifat persiapan atau penunjang tidak dianggap BUT termasuk jika menjadi agen yang berdiri sendiri tanpa ada pengaruh dari perusahaan pusat.


Untuk dikenakan pajak atas laba BUT, maka perusahaan asuransi tersebut harus memenuhi sebagai berikut:

a. Bukan agen yang berdiri bebas (independent), agen bebas tidak dikenakan pajak pada negara sumber, karena hanya bersifat promosi atau dalam rangka pemasaran.

b. Ada karyawan tetap di negara sumber penghasilan.

c. Memungut Premi di negara sumber penghasilan.

d. Menanggung resiko tebusan asuransi di negara sumber penghasilan


Untuk agen yang berdiri bebas yang semata-mata menjadi makelar atau komisioner atau agen lainnya, tidak dianggap BUT, namun bila mereka sebagai agen yang menjualkan produk satu perusahaan saja, maka dapat dianggap sebagai BUT.


Perusahaan yang memiliki anak perusahaan dinegara lainnya, tidak dapat dianggap sebagai BUT, jika usahanya tidak ada hubungan efektif dan sejenis dengan usaha di luar negeri, atau perusahaan tersebut dapat menandatangani kontrak atas nama induk perusahaannya. Anak perusahaan yang dimaksud bukan cabang perusahaan, namun memiliki perusahaan yang berbeda namanya dengan induk perusahaan, sehingga harus ada pemisahan kekayaan atas uasaha tersebut (business entity).


1. Dalam Pasal 5 ayat 1, Model Indonesia menggunakan istilah agreement sedangkan UN dan OECD Model menggunakan istilah convention.


2. Dalam Pasal 5 ayat 2, Model Indonesia menambahkan bahwa BUT termasuk gudang atau gerai penjualan dan sebuah pertanian atau perkebunan, serta tempat pengeboran minyak atau kapal kerja yang digunakan untuk ekplorasi dan eksploitasi sumber kekayaan alam.

3. Dalam Pasal 5 ayat 3 Tax Treaty, OECD hanya menjelaskan bahwa sebuah Bangunan, konstruksi, atau proyek instalasi dianggap BUT kalau kegiatannya berlangsung selama lebih dari 12 bulan, sedangkan UN Model 6 bulan, dan Indonesia Model menambahkan atau aktivitas berlanjut selama periode lebih dari ....... bulan.

4. Dalam Pasal 4, Model Indonesua menambah pengecualian BUT adalah pengurusan suatu tempat tertentu dari suatu usaha semata-mata dengan maksud untuk tujuan iklan atau penyedia informasi.

5. Dalam Pasal 5 Model OECD hanya menjelaskan bahwa dapat juga dianggap memiliki BUT di sebuah negara apabila memiliki kuasa untuk menandatangani kontrak atas nama perusahaan tersebut, kecuali jika kegiatannya semata-mata sebagaimana disebutkan dalam Pasal 5 ayat 4.

6. Model Indonesia menambahkan dalam Pasal 5 ayat 4, bahwa juga dianggap BUT apabila membuat atau melakukan proses barang-barang perusahaan atau barang persediaan untuk perusahaan induk di suatu negara lain.

7. Dalam Pasal 5 ayat 6, Model EOCD tidak mengatur tentang perusahaan asuransi yang melakukan usaha di suatu negara lain.

8. Dalam Pasal 5 ayat 7 model OECD tidak mengatur adanya agen yang semata-mata menjalankan atas nama perusahaannya saja atau tidak, yang penting jika usahanya semata-mata sebagai agen maka tidak dianggap sebagai BUT, sedangkan model UN maupun Indonesia menambahkan, jika kegiatan agen seluruhnya atau hampir seluruhnya dilakukan atas nama perusahaan itu, ia dianggap sebagai BUT, karena bukan dianggap sebagai agen yang berdiri sendiri.

9. Ayat lainnya tidak ada perbedaan antara UN, OECD dan Indonesia Model.

3. Ketentuan-ketentuan pada ayat 1 akan berlaku juga terhadap penghasilan yang diperoleh dari penggunaan secara langsung, dari penyewaan, atau setiap bentuk penggunaan lainnya dari harta tak gerak.

4. Ketentuan-ketentuan dalam ayat-ayat 1 dan 3 berlaku juga terhadap penghasilan dari harta tak gerak suatu perusahaan dan terhadap penghasilan dari harta tak gerak yang digunakan untuk pelaksanaan jasa-jasa profesi.

Penjelasan Pasal 6 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

1. Penghasilan dari harta tak gerak pada umumnya dikenakan di negara harta itu berada, termasuk penggunaan secara langsung misal disewakan, atau untuk pelaksanaan jasa profesi, atau hak-hak yang diberikan atas penggunaan harta tersebut.

2. Dinegara Indonesia, untuk pengenaan pajak harta tak gerak berupa tanah dan bangunan dikenakan pajak 5% dari nilai tertinggi antara Nilai Jual Objek Pajak (NJOP) dibanding harga jual. Sedangkan untuk harta lainnya bila dijual, maka akan dikenakan pajak di PPh Badannya atau di BUT-nya.


Model UN dan Indonesia dalam pasal 6 ayat 4 menambahkan kalimat untuk dikenakan pajak atas harta tidak bergerak juga terhadap penghasilan dari harta tak gerak yang digunakan untuk pelaksanaan jasa-jasa profesi. Untuk ayat lainnya dalam pasal 6 model UN, OECD dan Indonesia tidak ada perbedaan.

income whish are dealt with separately in other articles of this convention, then the provisions of those articles shall not be affected by the provisions of the article.


1. Laba perusahaan dari Negara Pihak pada persetujuan hanya akan dikenakan pajak di negara itu kecuali jika perusahaan itu menjalankan usaha di Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan, melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap yang berkedudukan disitu. Apabila perusahaan tersebut menjalankan usahanya sebagaimana dimaksud diatas, maka laba perusahaan itu dapat dikenakan pajak di negara lainnya tetapi hanya atas bagian laba yang berasal dari :

a) bentuk usaha tetap tersebut;

b) penjualan barang-barang atau barang dagangan di negara lainnya, yang jenisnya sama atau serupa seperti yang dijual melalui BUT tersebut; atau

c) kegiatan usaha lainnya yang dilakukan di negara lain yang jenisnya sama atau serupa seperti yang dilakukan Bentuk Usaha Tetap tersebut.

2. Dengan memperhatikan ketentuan-ketentuan ayat 3, jika suatu perusahaan dari suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan menjalankan usaha di setiap negara melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap yang berkedudukan disitu, maka yang akan diperhitungkan sebagai laba bentuk usaha tetap itu oleh masing-masing negara ialah laba yang diperolehnya seandainya bentuk usaha tetap tersebut merupakan suatu perusahaan lain yang terpisah dan berdiri sendiri, yang melakukan kegiatan-kegiatan yang sama atau serupa, dan mengadakan hubungan yang sepenuhnya bebas dengan perusahaan yang memiliki bentuk usaha tetap itu.

3. Dalam menentukan besarnya laba suatu bentuk usaha tetap, dapat dikurangkan biaya-biaya yang dikeluarkan untuk kepentingan usaha dari bentuk usaha tetap itu termasuk biaya-biaya pimpinan dan biaya-biaya administrasi umum baik yang dikeluarkan di negara di mana bentuk usaha tetap itu berkedudukan maupun tempat lainnya. Namun yang tidak dapat


dikurangkan ialah pembayaran-pembayaran yang dilakukan oleh BUT kepada kantor pusatnya atau kantor-kantor lain milik kantor pusatnya (selain dari penggantian biaya yang benar-benar dikeluarkan), yaitu yang berupa royalty, imbalan atau pembayaran serupa untuk jasa yang dilakukan atau untuk jasa manajemen atau, kecuali dalam usaha perbankan, berupa bunga atas uang yang dipinjamkan kepada kantor pusat atau kantor-kantor lainnya.

4. Selama menjadi kebiasaan di suatu negara untuk menetapkan laba yang diperkirakan diperoleh suatu bentuk usaha tetap berdasarkan suatu pembagian laba dari keseluruhan laba perusahaan terhadap pelbagai bagiannya, ketentuan-ketentuan dalam ayat 2 tidak akan menutup kemungkinan bagi perusahaan di negara itu untuk menetapkan laba yang dikenakan pajak berdasarkan rumus atas suatu pembagian laba seperti itu yang mungkin merupakan kebiasaan, bagaimanapun cara penghitungan pembagian yang dianut, akan menjadikan hasilnya sesuai dengan azas-azas yang terkandung dalam pasal ini.

5. Untuk penerapan ayat-ayat terdahulu, besarnya laba yang dianggap berasal dari BUT itu setiap tahun akan ditetapkan dengan cara perhitungan yang sama kecuali jika terdapat alsan yang kuat dan cukup untuk menyimpang dari cara perhitungan tersebut.

6. Jika dalam jumlah laba termasuk bagian-bagian penghasilan yang diatur secara tersendiri pada pasal-pasal lain dalam persetujuan ini, maka ketentuan pasal-pasal tersebut tidak akan terpengaruh oleh ketentuan-ketentuan pasal ini.

Penjelasan Pasal 7:

1. Laba perusahaan akan dikenakan pajak di negara domisili, kecuali jika ia menjalankan usaha di negara lainnya berupa BUT, maka pengenaan pajaknya dikenakan di negara lainnya. Yang dikenakan pajak hanya atas labanya saja yang diperoleh dari negara sumber penghasilan.

2. Biaya BUT yang dapat dibebankan sebagai biaya adalah biaya yang terkait dengan kegiatan usaha BUT dan harus dilakukan koreksi fiscal sesuai pasal 9 ayat 1 UU PPh dan Biaya BUT juga dikoreksi apabila biaya tersebut dibayarkan kepada kantor pusatnya atau kantor lain milik kantor pusat seperti; royalty, imbalan jasa manajemen, imbalan jasa lainnya dan bunga kecuali BUT yang usahanya perbankan.

3. Dalam menghitung pajak atas sebuah perusahaan, BUT harus memberikan laporan konsolidasi di negara sumber. Laporan konsolidasi tersebut dapat


dijadikan pengukuran dalam menentukan besarnya laba yang wajar di sebuah negara sumber penghasilan. Rumus untuk menghitung proporsi atas laba sebuah BUT dapat diukur dengan perbandingan peredaran usaha, perbandingan Biaya-biaya, atau perbandingan modal kerja dan harus dilakukan secara taat azas setiap tahunnya, secara terus menerus guna menjamin kepastian hukum.

4. negara Indonesia menganut perbandingan peredaran usaha apabila terdapat biaya-biaya yang dikeluarkan oleh BUT dianggap terjadi transfer pricing, hal ini diatur dalam KEP-62/PJ./1995.

5. Untuk penentuan penghasilan tertentu seperti dividen, royalty, gaji, bunga dll, diatur secara khusus dalam pasal lain, sehingga tidak terpengaruh dan tidak terkait dengan penentuan laba usaha BUT.

Perbedaan OECD dan UN Model

1. Pasal 7 ayat 1, Untuk Model UN dan Indonesia, laba BUT lebih diperjelas, termasuk jika perusahaan induk melakukan Penjualan barang-barang atau barang dagangan di negara lainnya, yang jenisnya sama atau serupa, atau Kegiatan usaha lainnya yang dilakukan di negara lain yang jenisnya sama atau serupa seperti yang dilakukan Bentuk Usaha Tetap di negara sumber.

2. Pasal 7 ayat 3, Biaya yang tidak dapat dikurangkan oleh BUT untuk Model UN dan Indonesia, lebih diperjelas, yaitu tentang biaya yang tidak dapat dikurangkan ialah pembayaran-pembayaran yang dilakukan oleh BUT kepada kantor pusatnya atau kantor-kantor lain milik kantor pusatnya (selain dari penggantian biaya yang benar-benar dikeluarkan), yaitu yang berupa royalty, imbalan atau pembayaran serupa untuk jasa yang dilakukan atau untuk jasa manajemen atau, kecuali dalam usaha perbankan, berupa bunga atas uang yang dipinjamkan kepada kantor pusat atau kantor-kantor lainnya.

3. Pasal 7 ayat 5, Untuk Model OECD, ditambah tidak dianggap ada laba BUT, jika hanya karena pembelian barang atau barang dagangan kepada perusahaan induk.

4. Indonesia Model tidak menggunakan pasal 7 ayat 4 dalam UN Model, Indonesia tidak menggunakan rumus atas suatu pembagian laba BUT, namun menggunakan perbandingan omzet untuk menentukan biaya yang wajar, bagi BUT di dalam negeri dengan neraca konsolidasi.

2. negara-negara maju menginginkan diterapkannya azas domisili dalam pengenaan pajaknya sedangkan negara berkembang justru sebaliknya yang ingin mengenakan pajak sesuai dengan azas sumber.

Apabila suatu negara pihak pada persetujuan mencakup laba satu perusahaan di negara itu dan dikenai pajak, laba yang telah dikenai pajak di negara lainnya dan laba tersebut adalah laba yang memang seharusnya diperoleh perusahaan-perusahaan independent, maka negara lain itu akan melakukan penyesuaian-penyesuaian atas jumlah laba yang dikenai pajak. Penyesuaian-penyesuaian itu harus memperhatikan ketentuan-ketentuan lain dalam persetujuan ini dan apabila dianggap perlu, pejabat-pejabat yang berwenang dari kedua negara pihak pada persetujuan saling berkonsultasi.

3. Ketentuan-ketentuan pada ayat 2 tidak berlaku bila hasil sidang pengadilan memutuskan bahwa dengan dilakukannya penyesuaian laba sebagaimana diatur pada ayat 1, salah satu perusahaan dikenai hukuman karena telah melakukan penggelapan, kelalaian yang disengaja atau kesalahan yang disengaja.

Penjelasan Pasal 9:

1. Apabila terdapat hubungan istimewa antara induk di negara domisili dan anak perusahaan di negara sumber, atau sebaliknya, maka negara yang merasa dirugikan atas transaksi yang tidak wajar dapat melakukan penghitungan kembali jumlah penghasilan atau beban yang wajar, sesuai dengan apabila perusahaan induk atau anak tersebut melakukan transaksi dengan perusahaan yang tidak terikat hubungan istimewa.

2. Umumnya perusahaan ketidakwajaran tersebut, dikarenakan adanya transfer pricing, atau pemindahan harga biaya yang tinggi kepada anak dan penjualan atau pendapatan yang kecil apabila dijual ke induk perusahaan.

3. Adanya transfer pricing dapat melakukan pengelakan pajak, yang dirugikan dalam hal ini pada umumnya adalah negara sumber, karena terkait dengan pendapatan atau peredaran usaha yang kadang kala dikecilkan, sehingga penerimaan pajak berkurang.

4. Jika terjadi transaksi antara dua pihak yang mempunyai hubungan istimewa, dan transaksi tersebut tidak wajar, salah satu negara pada pihak persetujuan dapat melakukan penghitungan kembali untuk menentukan jumlah yang wajar. Oleh karena itu harus ada koordinasi antara pejabat di


negara domisili dengan negara sumber, agar tidak terjadi pengelakan pajak.

5. Jika terjadi putusan pengadilan yang memberikan hukuman karena terjadinya kesengajaan, maka penyesuaian di negara lainnya tidak diperlukan. Misal putusan pengadilan menghukum 6 tahun dan denda 4 kali dari jumlah pajak yang terutang, akibat penggelapan peredaran usaha, maka negara lainnya tidak perlu melakukan penyesuaian atas biayanya atau pembeliannya.

6. Pada prinsipnya transfer pricing diperkenankan sepanjang biaya yang terjadi antar satu grup dalam kondisi yang sama dengan perusahaan yang independen, hal ini sesuai prinsip arm’s lenght.

Prinsip arm’s lenght tidak dapat dilakukan bila:

a. Perusahaan anak dan induk merupakan perusahaan integrasi dan produknya khusus, serta perusahaan independen sebagai pembanding tidak ada.

b. Data nilai harga pembanding sudah lampau,artinya kurang valid jika data sekarang dijadikan data pembanding untuk tahun lalu.

Untuk melakukan deteksi dini agar harga sesuai dengan harga pasaran, digunakan metode-metode untuk menentukan bahwa transfer pricing telah sesuai dengan ketentuan dalam tax traty antara lain:

1. Comparable Uncontrolled Price method (CUP)

Perbandingan antara harga atau jasa antara pihak-pihak yang mempunyai hubungan istimewa dan transaksi yang sejenis yang tidak dipengaruhi oleh hubungan istimewa dalam lingkungan atau situasi yang mirip atau serupa.2 Metode CUP tidak dapat dilakukan jika tidak ada data dari pihak independen mengenai harga yang sebenarnya.

2. Resale price method

Metode ini melihat harga transaksi antara pihak-pihak yang independen setelah terjadinya transaksi antara pihak-pihak yang mempunyai hubungan istimewa, menyangkut barang yang sama. Harga tersebut kemudian dikurangi dengan gross margin (resale price method) yang pantas yang merupakan jumlah yang ditetapkan oleh penjual untuk menutup kembali

2 Rachmanto Surahmat, Persetujuan Penghindaran Pajak Berganda Sebuah Pengantar, PT. Gramedia, hal.107.


harga pokok berikut biaya operasinya, kemudian setelah dikurangi biaya-biaya yang berkaitan dengan pembelian barang tersebut akan menghasilkan arm’s length price.3

Metode ini lebih ke pendekatan biaya perusahaan harus sesuai dengan harga pokok atau biaya operasional lainnya, misal jika PT. A dengan Harga Pokok dan biaya lainnya dapatkah menutupi kegiatan operasional perusahaan ? apabila dibandingkan dengan pihak-pihak yang independent.

3. Cost Plus Method

Metode ini dimulai dengan menjumlahkan biaya yang dikeluarkan pemasok harta atau jasa dalam transaksi yang terkait hubungan istimewa. Kemudian dari jumlah tersebut ditambahkan dengan sejumlah persentase kenaikan sehingga menunjukkan sesuai dengan keadaan pasar.

Dengan ditambah atau di mark up biaya yang sesuai dengan nilai mark up pasar yang wajar dan tidak dipengaruhi oleh hubungan istimewa. jika terjadi perbedaan dengan harga jual, maka dipastikan terdapat transfer pricing.

4. Profit Split Method

Metode ini dimulai dengan mencari laba yang akan dibagi diantara mereka yang ada di dalam satu group dari transaksi yang dipengaruhi oleh hubungan istimewa tersebut. Kemudian laba tersebut dibagi di antara perusahaan-perusahaan yang mempunyai hubungan istimewa tersebut dengan dasar pertimbangan ekonomis sehingga pembagian tersebut kurang lebih mencerminkan laba seandainya transaksi tersebut tidak dipengaruhi hubungan istimewa.

Pembagian laba yang diharapkan oleh perusahaan yang independen dibandingkan dengan laba yang dibagi oleh perusahaan yang memiliki hubungan istimewa.

Misalnya, jika PT. A menerima bagian atas laba 10% dari PT. C sebesar 10.000.000, atas modal Rp.1.000.000.000, sedangkan PT.D dengan modal sebesar 1 milyar dapat membagi laba dengan jumlah yang lebih besar dari PT.C

5. Transactional Net Margin Method

3 Ibid no.2


Metode ini dimulai dengan menetapkan margin laba bersih yang didasarkan atas perbandingan tertentu terhadap biaya, penjualan, atau aktiva yang diperoleh wajib pajak.

Net margin, tersebut seharusnya sama jika WP tersebut melakukan transaksi dengan pihak yang tidak terikat hubungan istimewa atas barang yang sama atau serupa.

Jika terjadi transaksi antara dua pihak yang mempunyai hubungan istimewa, dan transaksi tersebut tidak wajar, salah satu negara pada pihak persetujuan dapat melakukan penghitungan kembali untuk menentukan jumlah yang wajar. Oleh karena itu harus ada koordinasi antara pejabat di negara domisili dengan negara sumber, agar tidak terjadi pengelakan pajak.

Jika terjadi putusan pengadilan yang memberikan hukuman karena terjadinya kesengajaan, maka penyesuaian di negara lainnya tidak diperlukan. Misal putusan pengadilan menghukum 6 tahun dan denda 4 kali dari jumlah pajak yang terutang, akibat penggelapan peredaran usaha, maka negara lainnya tidak perlu melakukan penyesuaian atas biayanya atau pembeliannya.


1. Dalam Pasal 9 ayat 3, Model Indonesia menyatakan bahwa suatu negara yang terikat persetujuan tidak akan merubah laba dari sebuah perusahaan dalam keadaan sesuai pada ayat 2 setelah habis batas waktu yang disajikan dalam hukum perpajakannya.

2. Sedangkan dalam Model OECD tidak terdapat Pasal 9 ayat 3.

Pasal 10 Dividends (Dividen)

1. Dividen yang dibayarkan oleh suatu perseroan yang berkedudukan di suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan kepada penduduk Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan dapat dikenakan pajak di negara lain tersebut.

2. Namun demikian dividen itu dapat juga dikenakan pajak di Negara Pihak pada persetujuan di mana perseroan yang membayarkan dividen tersebut berkedudukan dan sesuai dengan perundang-undangan negara tersebut, akan tetapi apabila penerima dividen adalah pemilik saham yang menikmati dividen itu, maka pajak yang dikenakan tidak akan melebihi:

a. ... persen (ditentukan berdasarkan kesepakatan antara kedua negara yang bersangkutan) dari jumlah kotor dividen, jika penerima deviden adalah, suatu badan (selain persekutuan) yang memiliki sekurang-kurangnya 10% modal dari badan yang membayarkan deviden.

b. ... persen (ditentukan berdasarkan kesepakatan bersama antara dua negara yang bersangkutan) dari jumlah kotor deviden dalam hal lainnya.

Para pejabat yang berwenang kedua negara melalui persetujuan bersama akan menentukan cara penerapan pembatasan ini.

Ayat ini tidak mempengaruhi pengenaan pajak perseroan atas laba dari mana dividen dibayar.


3. Istilah "dividen" sebagaimana digunakan dalam Pasal ini berarti penghasilan dari saham-saham, atau hak-hak lainnya yang bukan merupakan surat-surat hutang, namun turut serta dalam pembagian laba, demikian halnya penghasilan dari hak-hak perseroan lainnya yang dalam hal pengenaan pajaknya diperlakukan sama sebagai penghasilan dari saham-saham menurut undang-undang perpajakan negara dimana perseroan yang melakukan pembayaran berkedudukan.

4. Ketentuan-ketentuan ayat 1 dan 2 tidak akan berlaku apabila pemilik saham yang menikmati dividen, yang merupakan penduduk suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan, melakukan kegiatan usaha di Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan, dimana perseroan yang membayarkan dividen berkedudukan, melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap, atau menjalankan pekerjaan bebas dengan suatu tempat tertentu dan pemilikan saham-saham atas mana dividen itu dibayarkan, mempunyai hubungan yang efektif dengan bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu itu. Dalam hal demikian berlaku ketentuan-ketentuan Pasal 7 atau Pasal 14, tergantung pada masalahnya.

1. Istilah dividen adalah pembagian laba atau keuntungan dari sebuah perusahaan kepada para pemegang saham. Sedangkan menurut tax treaty adalah penghasilan dari saham-saham, atau hak-hak lainnya yang bukan merupakan surat-surat piutang, namun turut serta dalam pembagian laba, demikian halnya penghasilan dari hak-hak perseroan lainnya yang dalam hal pengenaan pajaknya diperlakukan sama sebagai penghasilan dari saham-saham menurut undang-undang perpajakan negara dimana perseroan yang melakukan pembayaran berkedudukan.


2. Dividen merupakan sistem pemajakan with holding tax, dan merupakan pengenaan pajak yang menggunakan azas sumber penghasilan, tarif lebih rendah diterapkan jika terdapat kepemilikan saham paling rendah 10%, namun pada umumnya kepemilikan saham yang ditentukan adalah 25%, sesuai metode equity dalam kepemilikan saham.

3. Apabila penduduk asing tersebut memiliki usaha berupa BUT di negara sumber penghasilan maka pemajakannya bukan dividen, namun berlaku ketentuan penghitungan laba rugi sebagaimana diatur dalam ketentuan BUT, jika ada laba BUT dan tidak dibagi maka tidak dikenakan pajak, sebaliknya jika ditransfer ke luar negeri maka dikenakan pemajakan tersendiri PPh Pasal 26 ayat 4, dan bukan dividen.

Perbedaan UN dan OECD model adalah sebagai berikut:

1. Dalam UN, pemajakan dividen tergantung kesepakatan kedua negara, pada umumnya lebih rendah dari model OECD.

2. OECD tarif dividen ditentukan sebesar 5% jika kepemilikan sahamnya minimal 25%, sedangkan lainnya 15%, sedangkan model UN ditentukan sebesar .... persen tergantung hasil negoisasi, namun tarif lebih rendah jika kepemilikan sahamnya minimal 10%.

3. Model Indonesia, dalam Pasal 10 ayat 2, menambahkan bahwa pembebanan pajak tidak melebihi ..... persen dari jumlah kotor dividen. Ayat ini tidak akan mempengaruhi pajak perusahaan menyangkut dividen dibayar dari laba mana yang dikeluarkan.

4. Pasal 10 ayat 5, Model Indonesia menambahkan bahwa Laba BUT akan dikenakan pajak tambahan menurut hukum Undang-undang perpajakan Indonesia, dan pajak tersebut tidak melebihi ...... per sen dari jumlah laba setelah dikurangi Pajak Penghasilan.

5. Model Indonesia tidak menerapkan Pasal 10 ayat 5 dalam UN Model.

6. Model Indonesia, menambahkan Pasal 10 ayat 6, ketentuan pada ayat 5 dari pasal ini (Pasal 10), tidak mempengaruhi ketentuan yang terkandung dalam Kontrak Bagi Hasil Minyak dan gas yang telah diputuskan oleh pemerintah Indonesia.

Persen (persentasenya ditentukan berdasarkan kesepakatan bersama antara dua negara yang mengadakan perjanjian) dari jumlah kotor bunga. Pejabat-pejabat yang berwenang dari kedua negara pihak pada persetujuan dengan mengadakan perjanjian yang saling menguntungkan dapat mengatur pelaksanaan pengenaan pajak atas bunga tersebut.

3. Istilah "bunga" yang digunakan dalam pasal ini berarti penghasilan dari semua jenis tagihan hutang baik yang dijamin dengan hipotik maupun tidak dan baik yang mempunyai hak atas pembagian laba atau tidak dan khususnya penghasilan dari surat-surat perbendaharaan negara dan surat-surat obligasi atau surat-surat hutang, termasuk premi dan hadiah yang terikat pada surat-surat perbendaharaan, obligasi atau surat-surat hutang tersebut.


4. Ketentuan-ketentuan ayat 1 sampai ayat 2 tidak akan berlaku apabila pemberi pinjaman yang menikmati bunga yang berkedudukan di suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan, melakukan kegiatan usaha di Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan dimana tempat bunga itu berasal melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap yang berada disana, atau menjalankan pekerjaan bebas di negara lainnya melalui suatu tempat tetap yang berada disana, dan tagihan hutang yang menghasilkan bunga itu mempunyai hubungan yang efektif dengan bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tetap itu. Dalam hal demikian tergantung pada masalahnya, berlaku ketentuan-ketentuan Pasal 7 atau Pasal 14.

6. Bunga dapat menjadi penghasilan yang bersifat passive income atau business income, apabila passive income maka pengenaan pajaknya di Indonesia dengan with holding tax PPh Pasla 26 UU PPh, namun jika business income maka pengenaan pajaknya melalui penghitungan Bentuk Usaha Tetap.

Perbedaan Model OECD, UN dan Indonesia Model adalah sebagai berikut:

1. Pasal 11 ayat 2, UN dan Model Indonesia menegaskan persentase tergantung kesepakatan kedua negara, sedangkan OECD jelas menegaskan bahwa pemajakan bunga tidak boleh melebihi 10% dari jumlah bruto.

4 Ibid hal.


2. Pasal 11 ayat 4, UN lebih menjelaskan bahwa untuk tidak dikenakan obyek bunga adalah apabila ia menjalankan pekerjaan bebas di negara lainnya melalui suatu tempat tetap yang berada disana.

3. Model Indonesia, menambahkan Pasal 11 ayat 3, yang menyatakan bahwa bunga yang diterima oleh pemerintah, negara bagian atau pemerintah daerah, akan dibebaskan pengenaan pajaknya.

4. Untuk ayat lainnya dalam Pasal 11, tidak ada perbedaan antara UN, OECD dan Indonesia Model.

1. Royalti yang berasal dari Negara Pihak pada persetujuan dan dibayarkan kepada penduduk dari suatu Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan dapat dikenakan pajak di negara lain tersebut.

2. Namun demikian royalti tersebut dapat juga dikenakan pajak di Negara Pihak pada persetujuan dimana royalti itu berasal sesuai dengan perundang-undangan negara itu, tetapi apabila penerima royalti adalah pemilik royalti yang menikmatinya, maka pajak yang dikenakan tidak akan melebihi …… persen (persentasenya ditentukan berdasarkan kesepakatan bersama antara dua negara yang mengadakan perjanjian) dari jumlah total kotor royalti. Pejabat-pejabat yang berwenang dari kedua negara pihak pada persetujuan dengan mengadakan perjanjian yang saling menguntungkan dapat mengatur pelaksanaan pengenaan pajak atas royalty tersebut.

3. Istilah "royalti" sebagaimana digunakan dalam Pasal ini berarti segala jenis pembayaran yang diterima sebagai balas jasa atas penggunaan, hak menggunakan setiap hak cipta kesusasteraan, kesenian atau karya ilmiah, termasuk film-film sinematografi dan film-film atau pita-pita untuk siaran radio, televisi, paten, merk dagang, desain atau model, rencana, rumus rahasia atau cara pengolahan, atau hak menggunakan perlengkapan-perlengkapan industri, perdagangan atau pengetahuan, atau untuk keterangan mengenai pengalaman di bidang industri, perdagangan atau ilmu pengetahuan.

4. Ketentuan-ketentuan ayat 1 dan ayat 2 tidak berlaku, apabila pihak si penerima royalti, yang merupakan penduduk suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan menjalankan usaha di Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan dimana royalti itu berasal, melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap yang berada disana, atau melakukan suatu pekerjaan bebas di negara lainnya itu melalui suatu tempat tertentu, dan hak atau milik sehubungan dengan mana royalti itu dibayarkan, mempunyai hubungan yang efektif dengan a).bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat usaha tetap, atau dengan b) kegiatan usaha sebagaimana diatur dalam ayat 1 dari pasal 7. Dalam hal demikian, ZZ melihat pada masalahnya, berlaku ketentuan Pasal 7 atau Pasal 14.

5. Royalti dapat dianggap berasal dari Negara Pihak pada persetujuan apabila pembayarnya adalah orang atau badan yang membayarkan royalti, tanpa memandang apakah ia penduduk suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan atau bukan, memiliki bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu di suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan dimana kewajiban membayar itu timbul, dan


pembayaran tersebut menjadi beban bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu tersebut, maka royalti itu dianggap berasal dari negara dimana bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu itu berada.

6. Jika karena alasan adanya hubungan istimewa antara pembayar dengan pemilik hak yang menikmati atau antara kedua-duanya dengan pihak ketiga, maka jumlah royalti dengan memperhatikan penggunaan, hak dan keterangan untuk mana royalty itu dibayar melebihi dari jumlah yang seharusnya disepakati oleh pembayar dan pemilik hak seandainya tidak ada hubungan istimewa semacam itu, maka ketentuan-ketentuan Pasal ini hanya akan berlaku terhadap jumlah yang disebut terakhir. Dalam hal demikian, jumlah kelebihan pembayaran tersebut akan tetap dikenakan pajak sesuai dengan perundang-undangan masing-masing Negara Pihak pada persetujuan dengan memperhatikan ketentuan-ketentuan lainnya dalam persetujuan ini.


1. Istilah royalty menurut penulis adalah hak yang diterima oleh pemilik hak cipta, hak paten atau pemberi informasi atas penggunaan hasil cipta atau penggunaan merk oleh pihak ketiga.

2. Menurut tax treaty istilah royalty adalah segala jenis pembayaran yang diterima sebagai balas jasa atas penggunaan, hak menggunakan setiap hak cipta kesusasteraan, kesenian atau karya ilmiah, termasuk film-film sinematografi dan film-film atau pita-pita untuk siaran radio, televisi, paten, merk dagang, desain atau model, rencana, rumus rahasia atau cara pengolahan, atau hak menggunakan perlengkapan-perlengkapan industri, perdagangan atau pengetahuan, atau untuk keterangan mengenai pengalaman di bidang industri, perdagangan atau ilmu pengetahuan.

3. Royalti dapat dikenakan pajak di negara lain, arti kata dapat berarti pemajakannya dikenakan di dua tempat, yaitu di negara sumber penghasilan dengan withholding tax, dan di negara domisili dengan menghitung kembali penghasilan tersebut ke dalam laba usaha kantor pusat atau penerima royalti.

4. Untuk menghindari pemajakan ganda, maka tarif withholding tax paling tinggi pada umumnya 10%, dan sebaik mungkin lebih kecil pengenaannya, agar pemajakan di negara sumber kredit pajaknya dapat dikreditkan seluruhnya.

5. negara berkembang, sangat menginginkan tarif pajak atas royalti lebih tinggi, karena mereka lebih banyak memanfaatkan hak cipta, hak paten


atau informasi dari negara maju, sedangkan negara maju menginginkan tarif royalti rendah, bahkan lebih bagus pemajakannya berada di negara domisili, karena pada umumnya merekalah yang memperoleh penghasilan, sehingga pemajakannya lebih banyak di negara domisili.

Perbedaan UN, OECD dan Indonesia Model adalah sebagai berikut:

1. Pasal 12 ayat 2 di UN dan Indonesia Model mengatur tentang tarif royalti berdasarkan kesepakatan kedua negara dalam persetujuan, sedangkan dalam OECD tidak dijelaskan lebih lanjut tarif persentase atas royalti tersebut.

2. Pasal 12 ayat 3 di Indonesia Model, Istilah " royalti" lebih diperjelas yaitu pembayaran secara berkala atau bukan, dan dalam bentuk apapun yang dibuat sebagai pertimbangan untuk:

a. penggunaan dari, atau hak untuk menggunakan, hak cipta apapun, hak paten, disain atau model, rencana, rumusan yang rahasia atau cara pengolahan, merek dagang atau hak milik lainnya atau hak atau ;

b. penggunaan dari, atau atau hak menggunakan industri, perdagangan atau pengetahuan perlengkapan-perlengkapan industri,

c. persediaan dari informasi atau pengetahuan ilmiah, teknis, pengetahuan komersil atau industri atau informasi; atau

d. persediaan tentang segala bantuan yang pokok atau sampingan tentang hak kekayaan atau hak milik sebagaimana di sebutkan dalam subparagraph ( a), apapun peralatan seperti tersebut didalam sub-paragraph ( b) atau apapun pengetahuan atau informasi seperti seperti tersebut didalam sub-paragraph ( c); atau

e. penggunaan dari, atau hak untuk penggunaan:

i) film gambar hidup; atau

ii) film atau video untuk digunakan dalam penguhung dengan televisi; atau

iii) tape untuk digunakan dalam penghubung dengan siaran radio.

Sedangkan istilah model OECD hanya terbatas pada Istilah "royalti" berarti segala jenis pembayaran yang diterima sebagai balas jasa atas penggunaan, hak menggunakan setiap hak cipta kesusasteraan, kesenian atau karya ilmiah, termasuk film-film sinematografi, paten, merk dagang, desain atau model, rencana, rumus rahasia atau cara pengolahan, atau


untuk keterangan mengenai pengalaman di bidang industri, perdagangan atau ilmu pengetahuan.

3. Dalam Pasal 12 ayat 4, Model UN dan Indonesia menjelaskan bahwa, Ketentuan-ketentuan pemajakan atas royalti tidak berlaku, apabila pihak si penerima royalti, yang merupakan penduduk suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan menjalankan usaha di Negara Pihak lainnya pada persetujuan dimana royalti itu berasal, melalui suatu bentuk usaha tetap yang berada disana, atau melakukan suatu pekerjaan bebas di negara lainnya itu melalui suatu tempat tertentu, dan hak atau milik sehubungan dengan mana royalti itu dibayarkan, mempunyai hubungan yang efektif dengan a).bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat usaha tetap, atau dengan b) kegiatan usaha sebagaimana diatur dalam ayat 1 dari pasal 7. Dalam hal demikian, melihat pada masalahnya, berlaku ketentuan Pasal 7 atau Pasal 14. Sedangkan Model OECD tidak mengatur pemajakan royalti tidak berlaku apabila melakukan suatu pekerjaan bebas melalui suatu tempat tertentu.

4. Pasal 12 ayat 5 dalam UN dan Indonesia Model, dijelaskan tentang Royalti dapat dianggap berasal dari negara sumber apabila orang atau badan yang membayarkan royalti, tanpa memandang apakah ia penduduk suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan atau bukan, memiliki bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu di suatu Negara Pihak pada persetujuan dimana kewajiban membayar itu timbul, dan pembayaran tersebut menjadi beban bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu tersebut, maka royalti itu dianggap berasal dari negara dimana bentuk usaha tetap atau tempat tertentu itu berada. Namun di dalam Model OECD tidak dijelaskan hal demikian.

5. ayat lainnya dalam Pasal 12, untuk Model UN, OECD dan Indonesia, tidak ada perbedaan.

Terjemahan Pasal 21 Tax Treaty model adalah sebagai berikut:

1. Jenis-jenis penghasilan lainnya dari salah satu negara, dari mana pun asalnya, dan tidak tunduk kepada Pasal-pasal terdahulu dalam persetujuan ini hanya akan dikenakan pajak di negara tersebut.

2. Ketentuan ayat-ayat 1 tidak akan berlaku terhadap pendapatan yang berasal dari harta tak gerak seperti dirumuskan dalam pasal 6 ayat 2, jika penerima pendapatan itu merupakan penduduk dari negara, menjalankan perusahaan dengan suatu BUT di negara lain, atau melakukan pekerjaan bebas dengan suatu tempat tertentu di negara lain, dan hak atau kekayaan sehubungan dengan mana pendapatan itu dibayar mempunyai hubungan efektif dengan pendirian tetap atau tempat tertentu itu. Dalam hal demikian, melihat pada masalahnya berlaku ketentuan-ketentuan Pasal 7 atau Pasal 14.

3. Menyimpang dari ketentuan-ketentuan ayat 1 dan ayat 2, jenis-jenis penghasilan dari penduduk salah satu negara yang tidak dicakup dalam pasal-pasal terdahulu dari persetujuan ini, dan berasal dari negara lainnya dapat juga dikenai pajak di negara lain tersebut.


1. Atas penghasilan lainnya, yang tidak diatur dalam pasal-pasal terdahulu, pada ayat 1, hanya dikenakan pajak di negara domisili, namun hal ini bertentangan dengan ayat 3, yang menyatakan dapat juga dikenakan di negara sumber. Hal ini nantinya akan menimbulkan multi tafsir, jika Indonesia mengenakan pemajakan atas penghasilan lainnya tersebut karena dalam Undang-undang Pajak Penghasilan telah diatur adanya jenis obyek PPh yang tidak tercantum dalam P3B.

2. Namun jika penghasilan lainnya terkait dengan BUT, maka tetap digabung dalam penghasilan BUT dan dikenakan pemajakannya di negara sumber.



1. Model OECD, pendapatan lain-lain yang menyangkut pendapatan lain sehubungan pekerjaan bebas pada suatu tempat tertentu di negara lain, tidak diatur

2. Model UN menambahkan ayat tambahan bilamana penghasilan lain-lain tidak diatur dalam tax treaty, maka dikenakan pajak di negara sumber penghasilan.

RANGKUMAN

Model UN Model yang dikembangkan untuk memperjuangkan kepentingan negara-negara berkembang, sehingga prinsip sumber penghasilan tergambar dalam model ini. Model OECD Model yang dikembangkan oleh negara-negara eropa barat, prinsip yang digunakan adalah azas pengenaan pajak domisili. Model Indonesia adalah model P3B yang merupakan pengembangan dari kedua model tersebut, yaitu UN dan OECD
