How to complete this form
Information and instructions for the non-resident taxpayer
Why should I complete this form?
It is now a requirement for non-residents of Canada who are receiving dividend payments sourced in Canada to have a validly completed NR301 form in place
which enables the Trustee of the Scheme to reduce withholding tax on dividend payments from 25% to the treaty rate. Therefore all such participants in the
Company Sponsored Nominee in which you are participating are required to submit a new NR301 form every three years, or earlier if there are changes in
address, in order to obtain the benefit of a reduced withholding rate under the tax treaty between Canada and the country in which the participant is resident.
Country of residence (1)
Indicate your country of residence. You must be a resident of the country as defined in the tax treaty between Canada and that country. For more information,
consult the publication Income Tax Technical News No. 35 at www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pub/tp/itnews-35/, published February 26, 2007.
Recipient type and Canadian tax number (2)
Tick the appropriate type of non-resident taxpayer and provide a Canadian tax number, if you have one.
Foreign tax identification number (3)
Enter the tax identification number that you use in your country of residence, if you have one. For individuals who are resident in the UK, this is your
National Insurance Number.
Type of income (4)
This form is applicable to dividends paid on your Thomson Reuters Corporation holding. We have pre marked that this is dividend income.
Certification and undertaking (5)
This area should be completed and signed by:
- the non-resident taxpayer in the case of an individual;
- an authorised officer in the case of a corporation;
- the trustee, executor, or administrator if the person filing the form is a trust;
- an authorised partner in the case of a partnership.
A non-resident who does not satisfy the requirements of the limitation on benefits provisions, if any, contained in the tax treaty will not be entitled to all the benefits
of the tax treaty. By signing this form you are certifying that the non-resident is entitled to a reduced rate of tax under a tax treaty.
During an audit or review, or while processing a related request, the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) may ask you for more information to substantiate the tax
treaty benefit you claimed.
Change in circumstances
If a change in circumstances makes any information on the form incorrect, notify Computershare immediately and complete a new form.
Expiry date
This declaration expires when there is a change in the taxpayer’s eligibility for the declared treaty benefits or three years from the end of the calendar year
in which the form is signed and dated, whichever is earlier. If the taxpayer’s mailing address has changed to a different country, the taxpayer should submit
a revised form NR301.
If you need more information, see Part XIII Withholding Tax at www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/nnrsdnts/pyr/prtxiii/wthhldng/menu-eng.html and select Beneficial
Ownership or Rates for Part XIII Tax.
