Barron's International Tax Service

Serving the American Expatriate Community

International taxation is increasingly complex, and American expatriates often are exposed to confusing filing requirements imposed by taxing authorities in their foreign countries of residence and in their own homeland. Not only do many foreign countries require that residents report and pay taxes on world-wide income (see Filing Requirements) but also does the Internal Revenue Service require that U.S. citizens and residents do the same.

Hundreds of tax treaties between countries exist to protect citizens and residents from double taxation. Yet these same agreements facilitate exchanges of information between taxing authorities that increasingly compels expatriates to file tax returns both at home and abroad.

But the confusion does not end with filing American expatriate tax returns. What about foreign corporations, foreign partnerships or estate taxes? These filing require- ments are extremely complex, demanding the highest attention to detail.

In the arena of international tax, we have the experience to assist American expatriates in filing their income, information and estate tax returns both at home and abroad.
