The UK, Singapore and the UAE each reserved on Article 12, so those pairs keep their pre-BEPS agency tests despite being MLI-covered. India–Germany fails the coverage layer entirely (Germany did not list India as a Covered Tax Agreement), and India–USA has no MLI layer at all (the US never signed). Three layers fail independently: coverage, article match, entry into effect.","pinpoint":"MLI (2017), Articles 12, 34-35; party positions","confidence":"settled","as_at":"14 Aug 2026","note":"Indian domestic enforceability of MLI modifications is separately contested — see the Sky High caveat topic.\n"}
