This webinar will review state requirements for taxing inbound foreign income. Our panel of SALT experts will explain state nexus determinations and the impact of U.S. income tax treaties on state income and reporting requirements, as well as provide examples of the application of these rules in specific states.

Description

Post Wayfair, numerous states have enacted bright-line nexus requirements that are often satisfied when an express amount of sales or number of transactions is met or surpassed. Similarly, many states believe that nexus is created when a business is doing business or is deriving any income from the state. These thresholds usually replace the physical presence requirement in a state and are separate from applicable federal filing requirements.

U.S. income tax treaties with other countries do not govern state taxation. These agreements often incorporate permanent establishment guidelines to determine whether an entity is subject to federal tax. Some states do not tax treaty-protected income, other states clearly reserve the right to tax treaty-protected income, while still others do not directly address the application of U.S. income tax treaties to income in their state.

That being said, not knowing how a state's income and local tax rules apply to non-U.S. entities can result in substantial penalties for noncompliance. SALT professionals working with multinational companies need to understand how states tax foreign businesses.

Our panel will review state requirements for taxing inbound foreign income.

Listen as our panel of SALT experts explains state nexus determinations and the impact of U.S. income tax treaties on state income and reporting requirements, and provides examples of the application of these rules in specific states.
