MPs Vote for Double Taxation Avoidance With Switzerland

Members of the Iranian Parliament have voted to avoid double taxation in trade between Iran and Switzerland, which is expected to boost bilateral economic ties.
“We have secured our foothold in the Swiss market, exporting carpets and other types of flooring, different kinds of fruit and saffron. In return, our main exports from this western European country include field corn, soybeans, soymeal and unrefined vegetable oils,” Hadi Qavami, deputy economy minister, was quoted as saying by Mehr News Agency.
Sharif Nezam-Mafi, chairman of Iran-Switzerland Chamber of Commerce, said, “We have good reason to be happy with the parliament’s decision. It goes to show that our MPs view Switzerland as a long-term trade partner. This is good news,” the official was quoted as saying by ILNA.
