| 6. An enterprise of a Contracting State shall not be deemed to have a permanent establishment in the other Contracting State merely because it carries on business in that other Contracting State through a broker, general commission agent or any other agent of an independent status, provided that such persons are acting in the ordinary course of their business.

| 7.

| ARTICLE 7 (Business Profits) |
第7条 （营业利润） |
| 1. The profits of an enterprise of a Contracting State shall be taxable only in that Contracting State unless the enterprise carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein. If the enterprise carries on business as aforesaid, the profits of the enterprise may be taxed in the other Contracting State but only so much of them as is attributable to that permanent establishment. | 1. 缔约国一方的企业取得的利润应仅在该方缔约国被征税，除非企业通过设在缔约国另一方的某个常设机构在那里开展业务。如果企业开展业务存在前述状况，那么其利润可在缔约国另一方被征税，但仅限于可归属于那个常设机构的部分。 |
| 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. | 2. 除须遵循第3项规定以外，如果缔约国一方企业通过设在缔约国另一方的某个常设机构在那里开展业务，那么在缔约国各方都存在会被归结到那个常设机构的、其预期可能赚取的利润，如同它是一家不相关的独立企业，在相同或类似的条件下从事相同或类似的活动，并与自身是其常设机构的那家企业完全独立地作交易。 |
| 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 permanent establishment, including executive and general administrative expenses so incurred, whether in the State in which the permanent establishment is situated or elsewhere. However, no such deduction shall be allowed in respect of amounts, if any, paid (otherwise than towards reimbursement of actual expenses) by the permanent establishment to the head office of the enterprise or any of its other offices, by way of royalties or other similar payments or by way of interest on money lent to the permanent establishment. Likewise, no account shall be taken, in the determination of the profits of a permanent establishment, for amounts charged (otherwise than towards reimbursement of actual expenses), by the permanent establishment to the head office of the enterprise or any of its other offices, by way of royalties or other similar payments or by way of interest on money lent to the head office of the enterprise or any of its other offices. | 3. 在确定某个常设机构的利润时，应允许抵扣为该常设机构而产生的各种费用，包括行政和常规管理费用，无论是产生于该常设机构所在国还是其它地方。不过，不允许抵扣的项目——如果存在——包括，该常设机构向企业总部或企业的其它办事处支付（除用于补偿实际费用外）的各种款项，无论是作为特许使用费或其它类似款项，还是作为出借给该常设机构的资金所对应的利息。同样地，在确定某个常设机构的利润时，也不考虑该常设机构向企业总部或企业的其它办事处收取（除用于补偿实际费用外）的各种款项，无论是作为特许使用费或其它类似款项，还是作为出借给企业总部或其它办事处的资金所对应的利息。 |
| 4. Insofar as the tax law of a Contracting State provides with respect to a specific industry that the profits to be attributed to a permanent establishment are to be determined on the basis of a deemed profit, nothing in paragraph 2 shall preclude that Contracting State from applying those provisions of its law, provided that the result is in accordance with the principles contained in this Article. | 4. 如果缔约国一方的税法规定，针对某个特定行业，会被归结到某个常设机构的利润须基于认可的利润来确定，那么第2项中所述不应妨碍该方缔约国适用其法律的那些规定，只要其结果与本条包含的原则相一致。 |
| 5. No profits shall be attributed to a permanent establishment by reason of the mere purchase by that permanent establishment of goods or merchandise for the enterprise. | 5. 不应该仅因为某个常设机构为企业采购货物或商品而将利润归结到那个常设机构。 |
| 6. For the purpose of paragraphs 1 through 5, the profits to be attributed to the permanent establishment shall be determined by the same method year by year unless there is good and sufficient reason to the contrary. | 6. 就第1至5项而言，会被归结到常设机构的利润每年应采用相同的方法来确定，除非有适当和充分的理由作改变。 |
| 7. Where profits include items of income which are dealt with separately in other Articles of this Agreement, then the provisions of those Articles shall not be affected by the provisions of this Article. | 7. 如果利润中包含本协议其它条款另行论述的收入项目，那些条款中的规定不应受本条中各项规定的影响。 |
| ARTICLE 8 (Related Enterprises) |
第8条 （关联企业） |
| 1. Where | 1. 如果 |
| (a) an enterprise of a Contracting State participates directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of the other Contracting State; or | (a) 缔约国一方的企业直接或间接参与缔约国另一方企业的管理、控制、或资本投入；或者 |
| (b) the same persons participate directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of a Contracting State and an enterprise of the other Contracting State, | (b) 相同主体直接或间接参与缔约国一方和另一方企业的管理、控制、或资本投入， |
| and in either case the relationship between the two enterprises in their commercial or financial relations differs from that which would exist between independent enterprises, then any profits which, but for those conditions would have accrued to one of the enterprises, but by reason of those conditions have not so accrued, may be included in the profits of that enterprise and taxed accordingly. | 并且在上述任何一种情况下，两家企业之间的关系在商业或财务上不同于独立企业之间的状况，那么任何若非因那些状况本应由其中某家企业取得、但由于那些状况而未取得的利润，可计入那家企业并据此征税。 |
| 2. Where a Contracting State includes in the profits of an enterprise of that Contracting State-and taxes accordingly-profits on which an enterprise of the other Contracting State has been charged to tax in that other Contracting 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 Contracting 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 paid to the other provisions of this Agreement and the competent authorities of the Contracting States shall if necessary consult each other. | 2. 如果缔约国一方计入己方某家企业并据此征税的利润已经由缔约国另一方的某家企业在另一方缴税，而计入的这些利润本应由第一方缔约国的那家企业取得——如果两家企业之间的状况等同于独立企业之间的状况，那么缔约国另一方应该对那些利润的征税额相应作调整。在确定该项调整时，应适当考虑本协议的其它规定，必要时缔约国双方主管当局应当相互协商。 |
