About this lesson
You'll explore how double taxation agreements work between jurisdictions — whether through mutual non-taxation arrangements or specific rules about which country taxes particular income — and understand how the UK tax system prevents taxpayers from being taxed twice on the same income. This foundation is essential for the Taxation module, where you'll later study the relief mechanisms that apply when double taxation does occur.
