This article discusses the temporal aspects of tax treaties. In particular, it focuses on whether the legitimate expectations of taxpayers are harmed when changes are made to the Commentaries on the OECD Model. How are taxpayers’ rights considered when they have already entered into a certain factual or legal position?
