How Tax Treaties Prevent Double Taxation Across Borders

In this episode of The Tax Policy Podcast, Lucas and Luna unpack the often-overlooked world of international tax treaties. Using the real-world example of a U.S.-based consultant working remotely for a German client, they explain how double taxation agreements work, how they determine which country gets to tax which income, and what happens when a treaty doesn't exist. They also touch on the OECD's BEPS project and how treaty shopping by multinationals is being curtailed. If you've ever wondered why cross-border workers don't pay tax twice, this episode is for you. No jargon, just clear explanation of a critical but hidden part of the tax code. #TaxTreaties #DoubleTaxation #InternationalTax #OECD #BEPS #PermanentEstablishment #WithholdingTax #CrossBorderTax #TaxPolicy #RemoteWork #TreatyShopping #TaxResidence #USGermanyTaxTreaty #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TaxPodcast #FiscalPolicy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
