Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is international taxation?

    International taxation involves reporting income, assets, and financial activities across multiple countries. It includes compliance with U.S. tax laws for foreign income, FBAR/FATCA reporting, non-resident taxes, and cross-border business taxation. Anyone earning or holding assets outside their home country may fall under international tax rules.

  • Do U.S. citizens living abroad need to file U.S. taxes?

    Yes. U.S. citizens and green card holders must file U.S. tax returns regardless of where they live or where the income is earned. The U.S. follows a citizenship-based taxation system, which requires worldwide income reporting.

  • What is the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE)?

    FEIE allows qualified U.S. expatriates to exclude a portion of their foreign-earned income from U.S. taxation. Eligibility requires meeting the Physical Presence Test or Bona Fide Residence Test.

  • What is FBAR and who must file it?

    FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) is required for individuals who have foreign financial accounts exceeding $10,000 aggregate at any time during the year. This includes bank accounts, investment accounts, and certain foreign assets.

  • What is FATCA?

    FATCA (Form 8938) is an IRS requirement to report foreign assets, such as bank accounts, stocks, trusts, or real estate interests, if their value crosses IRS thresholds. It is separate from FBAR.

  • Do foreign-owned U.S. companies have reporting requirements?

    Yes. Foreign-owned LLCs and corporations must file Form 5472, maintain proper books, and disclose ownership information. Penalties for non-filing can be severe, starting at $25,000.

  • What is a tax treaty, and how does it help?

    Many countries have tax treaties with the U.S. to prevent double taxation. They determine which country gets primary taxing rights and help reduce or eliminate certain taxes.

  • How are foreign investments taxed in the U.S.?

    Dividends, interest, capital gains, rental income, and business income from foreign investments may be taxable in the U.S. All worldwide income must be reported.

  • I am a non-resident. Do I need to file U.S. taxes?

    Non-residents must file U.S. taxes if they earn U.S.-sourced income, such as rental income, dividends, wages, or business revenue. Filing requirements depend on residency tests and tax treaties.

  • Do you help with expatriate tax returns?

    Yes. We specialize in expat taxation, including FEIE, foreign housing exclusion, foreign tax credits, FBAR/FATCA filing, and IRS compliance for Americans living abroad.
