Deductions - Terminating provisions

DZ 1: Commercial bills before 31 July 1986

You could also call this:

“Tax deductions for commercial bills purchased before 31 July 1986”

If you buy a commercial bill from someone else before 31 July 1986, you can get a tax deduction. This doesn’t apply if you got the bill through a relationship agreement. You can only get this deduction if you make money from the bill when you sell it or cash it in, as described in section CZ 6.

The amount you can deduct is how much the commercial bill was worth when you bought it.

This rule adds to the general permission for tax deductions, but you still need to follow the general limitations.
