Common Errors Made by Payers

Key requirements

Use the earliest applicable payment-date trigger, including an accounting credit that need not be a bank account. Board fee approvals have their own entitlement timing. Tax Borne by Payer should describe an actual net-of-tax arrangement, not ordinary withholding deducted from the payee. Check currency conversion, payment classification and treaty support against the detailed examples. A correctly transferred tax amount can still accompany an incorrect return if the underlying gross amount or date is wrong. Reconcile contracts, invoices, approvals and accounting entries before submission.
