WILLEMSTAD - Curaçao and Suriname have signed a new tax treaty aimed at preventing double taxation and promoting economic cooperation between the two countries. This agreement provides clear guidelines for businesses and individuals who generate income in both Curaçao and Suriname, encouraging investments by reducing fiscal uncertainties.
The treaty establishes rules to prevent the same income from being taxed in both countries, creating a more favorable tax environment for entrepreneurs and investors. In addition, it strengthens trade relations between Curaçao and Suriname, offering opportunities for further economic growth.
This treaty lays the foundation for more intensive cooperation and greater trust among businesses operating in both nations. According to the Ministry of Finance, it is an example of how tax treaties can play a key role in stimulating economic growth by removing barriers to trade and investment.
To introduce the new tax treaty, Curaçao's Ministry of Finance will host a seminar on Tuesday, October 22, at the Renaissance Wind Creek Curaçao Resort. During the event, experts and policymakers will explain the key aspects of the treaty and highlight how it benefits both businesses and individuals.
