Summary
Starting December 15, 2025, new IRS rules clarify when foreign governments and their related businesses must pay U.S. taxes on income from investments here. These changes mainly affect foreign governments earning money through commercial activities or controlled companies in the U.S., making sure they don’t get unfair tax breaks.
