Subpart--General Income Tax
Sec. 521.110 Government wages, salaries, pensions and similar remuneration.
Under Article X (1) of the convention any wage, salary, similar
compensation or pension paid by the Government of Denmark or by any
other public authority within Denmark to an individual in the United
States is exempt from Federal income tax for taxable years beginning on
and after January 1, 1948. By reason, however, of the application of
Article XV (a) of the convention, such exemption does not apply to
recipients of such income who are either citizens of the United States
or alien residents therein. As to the taxation generally of compensation
of alien employees of foreign governments, see section 116(h) of the
Internal Revenue Code and Sec. 29.116-2 of Regulations 111 (26 CFR 1949
ed. Supps. 29.116-2) [and Sec. 39.116-2 of Regulations 118 (26 CFR, Rev.
1953, Parts 1-79, and Supps.)].
