Foreign-owned businesses in the United States carry reporting obligations that are easy to overlook and expensive to miss. The firm helps international companies meet those requirements and organize their U.S. operations with the tax consequences in view.
Advising foreign businesses operating in the U.S. is a central part of the practice. Engagements are carried out in English or Spanish and coordinated with your advisors abroad when needed.
What the engagement can include
- Form 5472 and pro forma Form 1120 for foreign-owned U.S. single-member LLCs
- Corporate returns for foreign-owned U.S. companies
- Withholding on payments to foreign persons (Forms 1042 and 1042-S)
- Tax treaty analysis and coordination of transfer pricing documentation
- Reporting of foreign entities by U.S. owners (Forms 5471, 8865 and 8858)
- U.S. market-entry structuring
