The Internal Revenue Service issued proposed regulations today concerning global intangible low-taxed income under section 951A and related sections of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), passed in December 2017, made major changes to the tax law, including adding new rules requiring the inclusion of global intangible low-taxed income generated by controlled foreign corporations (CFCs).
Under the TCJA, a U.S. person that owns at least 10 percent of the value or voting rights in one or more CFCs will be required to include its global intangible low-taxed income as currently taxable income, regardless of whether any amount is distributed to the shareholder. A U.S. person includes U.S. individuals, domestic corporations, partnerships, trusts and estates.
