- The Netherlands, when imposing tax on its residents, may include in the basis upon which such taxes are imposed the items of income which, according to the provisions of this Convention, may be taxed in Poland.

- However, where a resident of the Netherlands derives items of income which according to Article 6, Article 7, paragraph 6 of Article 10, paragraph 6 of Article 11, paragraph 5 of Article 12, paragraphs 1and 2 of Article 13, Article 14, paragraph 1 of Article 15, paragraph 1 and 2 of Article 18, paragraphs 1 (subparagraph a) and 2 (subparagraph a) of Article 19 and paragraph 2 of Article 22 of this Convention may be taxed in Poland and are included in the basis referred to in paragraph 1, the Netherlands shall exempt such items of income by allowing a reduction of its tax. This reduction shall be computed in conformity with the provisions of Netherlands law for the avoidance of double taxation. For that purpose the said items of income shall be deemed to be included in the total amount of the items of income which are exempt from Netherlands tax under those provisions.

- Further, the Netherlands shall allow a deduction from the Netherlands tax so computed for the items of income which according to paragraph 2 of Article 10, paragraph 2 of Article 11, paragraph 2 of Article 12, paragraphs 3a and 5 of article 13, Article 16, Article 17 and paragraph 5 of Article 18 of this Convention may be taxed in Poland to the extent that these items are included in the basis referred to in paragraph 1. The amount of this deduction shall be equal to the tax paid in Poland on these items of income, but shall not exceed the amount of the reduction which would be allowed if the items of income so included were the sole items of income which are exempt from Netherlands tax under the provisions of Netherlands law for the avoidance of double taxation.

- Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2, the Netherlands shall allow a deduction from the Netherlands tax for the tax paid in Poland on items of income which according to Article 7, paragraph 6 of Article 10, paragraph 6 of Article 11, paragraph 5 of Article 12, Article 14 and paragraph 2 of Article 22 of this Convention may be taxed in Poland to the extent that these items are included in the basis referred to in paragraph 1, if and insofar as the Netherlands under the provisions of Netherlands law for the avoidance of double taxation allows a deduction from the Netherlands tax of the tax levied in another country on such items of income. For the computation of this deduction the provisions of paragraph 3 of this Article shall apply accordingly.

- Where a resident of Poland derives income which may be taxed in the Netherlands in accordance with the provisions of the Convention (except to the extent that these provisions allow taxation by the Netherlands solely because the income is also income derived by a resident of the Netherlands), Poland shall allow as a deduction from the tax on the income of that resident, an amount equal to the income tax paid in the Netherlands. Such deduction shall not, however, exceed that part of the income tax, as computed before the deduction is given, which is attributable to the income which may be taxed in the Netherlands.
- 6
- Where in accordance with any provision of the Convention income derived by a resident of Poland is exempt from tax in Poland, Poland may nevertheless, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income of such resident, take into account the exempted income.
- 7
- The provisions of paragraph 2 shall not apply to items of income derived by a resident of the Netherlands where Poland applies the provisions of this Convention to exempt such items of income from tax or applies the provisions of paragraph 2 of Article 10 or 11 to such items of income.
