Frequently Asked Questions

What bookkeeping services do you offer for American expats and non-residents? +

We provide full-service bookkeeping for both US and foreign entities, including transaction recording, account reconciliation, financial reporting, and compliance support for both US and foreign entities.

Can you handle bookkeeping for multiple currencies? +

Yes. We specialize in multi-currency bookkeeping, ensuring accurate conversions, reconciliations, and reporting that comply with both US and general accounting standards.

Do I have to report my foreign bank accounts or other assets? +

Yes, you must file FBAR if your foreign accounts exceed $10,000 at any point during the year, and Form 8938 (FATCA) if you meet higher thresholds based on your filing status and residence.

What is Form 5471 and do I need to file it? +

Form 5471 is an informational return required by the IRS for US persons who are officers, directors, or shareholders of certain foreign corporations. If you own 10% or more of a foreign corporation, you almost certainly need to file. Failure to file can result in penalties of $10,000 per form, per year.

What is GILTI and how does it affect me? +

GILTI (Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income) is a US tax provision that requires US shareholders of Controlled Foreign Corporations (CFCs) to include certain income of the foreign corporation on their personal US tax return, even if that income hasn't been distributed. We help you calculate your GILTI inclusion and identify strategies to minimize the impact.

How can business structuring benefit American entrepreneurs abroad? +

Choosing the right entity type, location, and ownership structure can minimize US and foreign taxes, simplify reporting, and improve operational flexibility for entrepreneurs running businesses overseas.
