Description

The U.S. rules for taxing equity-based compensation for U.S. citizens are complex. Determining the taxation of incentive stock options, restricted stock units, nonqualified stock options, phantom stock plans, and the many other types of pay by way of ownership interests is difficult enough. Worldwide differences in the taxation of this income add another layer of complexity to these determinations.

Nuances such as where taxpayers reside when compensation is earned, where they reside when it is withdrawn, and whether they were, and are, a U.S. resident or nonresident influence the tax planning and ultimate liability in the U.S. and abroad. Some countries tax equity grants when awarded, while others require withholding and taxation of the receipt when the grant is vested or exercised. Foreigners receiving equity grants from a U.S. company could later be liable for U.S. tax while a resident of another country. Multinational tax advisers must understand the taxation of equity-based compensation arrangements in the U.S. and abroad.

Listen as our international tax expert explains the taxation of typical equity compensation vehicles in the U.S. and overseas for international tax practitioners and employees.
