On November 18, 2022, the Treasury Department published Foreign Tax Credit guidance aimed to clarify royalty withholding tax and cost recovery areas.
The measures would give companies a way to make sure their foreign royalty withholding taxes can continue to qualify for the credit. The rule also would make clear that a country’s restrictions on whether taxpayers can recover their costs don’t necessarily prevent their taxes there from being eligible for the credit.
