section 245A, which was added to the  
Code by section 14101(a) of the Tax  
Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) (P.L.

For transfers after 2017, section  
14102(e) of the TCJA repealed the  
active trade or business exception  
under section 367. Transfers of  
tangible property (other than certain  
stock transfers) are subject to full gain  
recognition under the general rule of  
section 367(a)(1).  
Who Must File  
Generally, a U.S. citizen or resident, a  
domestic corporation, or a domestic  
estate or trust must complete and file  
Form 926 to report certain transfers of  
property to a foreign corporation that  
are described in section 6038B(a)(1)  
(A), 367(d), or 367(e). See section  
6038B and Regulations sections  
1.6038B-1 and 1.6038B-1T for more  
information.  
TCJA section 14102(d) added section  
91 to the Code. New section 91  
provides rules for transfers of foreign  
branch assets to foreign corporations  
requiring the transferor to include a  
“Transferred Loss Amount” as  
income.

order to satisfy its section 6038B  
reporting obligations. See Regulations  
section 1.6038B-1 for further  
Special Rules  
Transfers by a partnership. If the  
transferor is a partnership (domestic  
or foreign), the domestic partners of  
the partnership, not the partnership  
itself, are required to comply with  
section 6038B and file Form 926.  
Each domestic partner is treated as a  
transferor of its proportionate share of  
the property. See the instructions for  
line 3 for additional information.  
For transfers in tax years beginning  
after 2017, TCJA section 14221  
revised the definition of intangible  
property under section 936(h)(3)(B)  
so that it now includes goodwill, going  
concern value, workforce in place,  
and any other item the value or  
information.  
Distributions by domestic  
liquidating corporations. A  
domestic liquidating corporation must  
file a Form 926 with respect to a  
distribution of property in complete  
liquidation under section 332 to a  
foreign distributee corporation that  
meets the stock ownership

distribution qualifies for the exception  
in Regulations section 1.367(e)-2(b)  
(2)(i) or (iii), then, provided that all  
initial liquidation documents are timely  
filed (determined without regard to  
Regulations section 1.367(e)-2(f)), the  
domestic liquidating corporation  
should complete Form 926 and, in the  
Supplemental Information Required  
To Be Reported section at the end of  
Part III of the form, note that the  
definition in section 936(h)(3)(B) was  
subsequently redesignated (without  
substantive change from TCJA) as  
section 367(d)(4) by Division U, Title  
IV, section 401(d)(1)(D)(viii)(l) of the  
Consolidated Appropriations Act,  
2018, P.L. 115-141. This revision  
affects the question on Form 926,  
line 13 and the information entered on  
Form 926, Part III, Section C.  
Transfers of cash. A U.S. person  
that transfers cash to a foreign  
corporation must report the transfer  
on Form 926 if (a) immediately after  
the transfer, the person holds, directly  
or indirectly, at least 10% of the total  
voting power or the total value of the  
foreign corporation; or (b) the amount  
of cash transferred by the person to  
the foreign corporation during the  
12-month period ending on the date of  
the transfer is more than $100,000.

number of an individual is his or her  
social security number (SSN). The  
identifying number of all others is their  
employer identification number (EIN).  
Line 1. Check the “Yes” box on  
line 1 if the transferee is a specified  
10%-owned foreign corporation that is  
not a controlled foreign corporation  
(as defined in section 957(a)).  
A specified 10%-owned foreign  
corporation is defined in section  
245A(b)(1) as any foreign corporation  
with respect to which any domestic  
corporation is a U.S. shareholder. A  
controlled foreign corporation is  
defined in section 957(a) as any  
foreign corporation if, on any day  
during the tax year of such foreign  
corporation, U.S. shareholders own

A “reference ID number” is a  
number established by or on behalf of  
the U.S. transferor identified at the top  
of page 1 of the form that is assigned  
to the transferee foreign corporation  
with respect to which Form 926  
reporting is required. These numbers  
are used to uniquely identify the  
transferee foreign corporation in order  
to keep track of the entity from tax  
year to tax year. The reference ID  
number must meet the requirements  
set forth below.  
Line 2c. If the transferor was a  
member of an affiliated group filing a  
consolidated tax return (see sections  
1501 through 1504), but was not the  
parent corporation, list the name and  
EIN of the parent corporation and file  
Form 926 with the parent  
corporation's consolidated return.  
Line 2d. If the answer to line 2d is  
"Yes," and if the asset is transferred in  
an exchange described in section  
361(a) or (b), attach the following.  
A statement that the conditions set  
forth in the second sentence of  
section 367(a)(4) and any regulations  
under that section have been

are established by or on behalf of the  
U.S. person filing Form 926, there is  
no need to apply to the IRS to request  
a reference ID number or for

Note. In general, the reference ID  
number assigned to a transferee  
foreign corporation on Form 926 has  
relevance only to Form 926 and  
should not be used with respect to the  
transferee foreign corporation on  
other IRS forms.  
Requirements. The reference ID  
number must be alphanumeric  
(defined below) and no special  
characters or spaces are permitted.  
The length of a given reference ID  
number is limited to 50 characters.

foreign or domestic) transfers property  
to a foreign corporation in an

applying the rules of ownership of  
section 958(b), more than 50% of (1)  
the total combined voting power of all  
classes of stock of such corporation  
entitled to vote, or (2) the total value of  
the stock of such corporation.  
Check the “No” box on line 1 and  
check the “Yes” box in Part II, line 9, if  
the transferee foreign corporation is a  
controlled foreign corporation.  
Line 2a. If you answered “Yes” to  
question 2a and the asset is stock,  
section 367(a)(4) may require basis  
adjustments. If you answered “No” to  
question 2a and the asset is a tangible  
asset, the transfer is taxable under  
sections 367(a)(1) and (a)(4). If the  
asset transferred is an intangible  
asset, see section 367(d) and its  
regulations.  
If you answered “No” to question  
2a: If the U.S. transferor is owned  
directly by more than five domestic  
corporations immediately before the  
reorganization, but some combination  
of five or fewer domestic corporations  
controls the U.S. transferor, the U.S.  
transferor must designate the five or  
fewer domestic corporations that  
comprise the control group. List these  
designated corporations on Form 926,
