Part VIII. Part VIII includes two new columns: (iii) the foreign  
corporation's total net income, and (iv) the foreign corporation's  
current year foreign taxes for which credit allowed. Part VIII also  
requests the functional currency of the foreign corporation.  
These additions will allow the preparer to include all information  
necessary for the section 960 computation on Part VIII without  
attaching Schedule Q (Form 5471).

The Partner’s Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065)  
generally apply to Schedule K-3, including Inconsistent  
Treatment of Items and Errors. These instructions provide  
additional information specific to Schedule K-3 for tax years  
beginning in 2023.

Schedule K-3 (Form 1065) reports items of international tax  
relevance from the operation of a partnership. You must include  
this information on your tax or information returns, if applicable.  
See separate parts for specific instructions. You only need to use  
the schedules that are applicable to you. For example, in  
general, if the partner receiving Schedule K-3 is a domestic  
corporation, the partnership would not have completed and filed  
Part X, Foreign Partner's Character and Source of Income and  
Deductions, because that part is inapplicable to domestic  
corporation partners. If the partner receiving Schedule K-3 is  
itself a partnership, it'll use information from Schedule K-3 to  
complete Schedules K-3 to report to its partners.

Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless  
otherwise noted.  
The proper treatment of certain items by the partner is  
dependent on information that the partnership may not have, and  
thus the partnership may have reported certain information on  
Schedule K-3 based on assumptions that are incorrect. In such  
cases, the partner must treat the items according to the partner’s  
actual facts, and if appropriate file a Form 8082, Notice of  
Inconsistent Treatment or Administrative Adjustment Request  
(AAR), to identify and explain the inconsistency.  
Future Developments  
For the latest information about developments related to Form  
1065 and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after they  
were published, go to IRS.gov/Form1065.  
What’s New  
Domestic partnerships with no or limited foreign activity. A  
partnership with no foreign source income, no assets generating  
foreign source income, and no foreign taxes paid or accrued may  
be reporting information to partners on Schedules K-3. For  
example, if you claim a credit for foreign taxes paid and/or  
accrued separately from your partnership interest, you may need  
certain information from the partnership to complete Form 1116  
or Form 1118. Also, if you're a domestic corporation, a domestic  
partnership may be required to complete Part IX when the  
partnership makes certain deductible payments to foreign  
parties related to you. The information reported in Part IX will  
Part I, box 7, reserved. Box 7 that previously required  
attachment of Form 8858 has been reserved. Instead, box 13  
now requires, in certain instances, information that a partner  
(whether direct or indirect) needs to complete Form 8858 with  
respect to a foreign branch or foreign disregarded entity owned  
by the partnership.  
Part II. Amounts may now be entered in lines 41 through 43,  
columns (a) through (e), with respect to interest expense.

Cat. No. 74716D  
   
assist you as a domestic corporation in determining the amount  
of base erosion payments made through the partnership, and in  
determining if you're subject to the base erosion and anti-abuse  
tax (BEAT). See also Part IV concerning foreign-derived  
intangible income (FDII) for when a domestic partnership with  
solely domestic activity may be reporting information to you, and  
Part XI for when a domestic or foreign publicly traded partnership  
(PTP) as defined in section 7704(b) with no foreign activity may  
be reporting information to you.  
Example 1—Part IX required to determine base erosion  
payments. Foreign corporation wholly owns DC, a domestic  
corporation, and FC, a foreign corporation. DC satisfies the  
gross receipts test; see Regulations section 1.59A-2(d). In Year  
1, DC owns a 50% interest in domestic partnership USP. An  
unrelated domestic corporation owns the remaining 50% interest  
in USP. DC's investment in USP doesn't qualify for the small  
partner exception; see Regulations section 1.59A-7(d)(2). In  
Year 1, USP pays FC $100 for services. The services aren't  
eligible for the services cost method exception; see Regulations  
section 1.59A-3(b)(3)(i). DC's distributive share of the $100  
payment to FC is $50. For purposes of determining whether a  
payment or accrual by a partnership is a base erosion payment,  
any amount paid or accrued by USP is treated as paid or  
accrued by each partner based on the partner's distributive  
share of the item of deduction with respect to that amount; see  
Regulations section 1.59A-7(d)(2). Therefore, DC is treated as  
having paid $50 to FC. DC must complete Form 8991, Tax on  
Base Erosion Payments of Taxpayers With Substantial Gross  
Receipts, to compute its base erosion minimum tax amount (if  
any); therefore, DC receives Part IX of Schedule K-3 (Form  
1065) from USP.  
Section 250 Deduction for Foreign-Derived Intangible Income  
(FDII) and Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI).  
Part V. Used, in combination with other information known to  
you, such as from Schedule P (Form 5471), Previously Taxed  
Earnings and Profits of U.S. Shareholders of Certain Foreign  
Corporations, to determine your share of distributions by foreign  
corporations to the partnership that are attributable to previously  
taxed earnings and profits (PTEP) in your annual PTEP accounts  
with respect to the foreign corporations (which are excludable  
from your gross income) or non-previously taxed earnings and  
profits (E&P), and the amount of foreign currency gain or loss on  
the PTEP that you're required to recognize under section 986(c).  
Use the information to figure and report the dividends and  
foreign currency gain or loss on Form 1040 and Form 1120. Also  
use the information to claim and figure a foreign tax credit on  
Form 1116 or 1118.  
Part VI. Used to determine your income inclusions under  
sections 951(a) and 951A if you're a U.S. shareholder of any of  
the listed CFCs. Partners will use the information to complete  
Form 8992, U.S. Shareholder Calculation of Global Intangible  
Low-Taxed Income, and Forms 1040 and 1120 with respect to  
subpart F income inclusions, section 951(a)(1)(B) inclusions,  
and section 951A inclusions.  
Part VII. Used to complete Form 8621, Return by a  
Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or  
Qualified Electing Fund, and to provide information required to  
determine your inclusion with respect to the PFIC.  
Part VIII. Used to determine your deemed paid taxes on  
inclusions under section 951A, 951(a)(1), or 1293(f). Domestic  
corporate partners and partners making a section 962 election  
will use the information to figure a deemed paid foreign tax credit  
on Form 1118.  
Part IX. Used to figure the BEAT. Corporate partners will use  
the information to complete Form 8991.  
How To Use Schedule K-3  
Reporting currency. All amounts are reported in U.S. dollars  
Part X. Used to provide information to a foreign partner (or a  
pass-through entity partner with a foreign owner) to determine its  
tax liability or reporting requirements with respect to income  
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (ECI) or with  
respect to fixed, determinable, annual, or periodical (FDAP)  
income. Partners will use the information to figure and report any  
U.S. tax liability on Form 1040-NR, U.S. Nonresident Alien  
Income Tax Return; Form 1120-F, U.S. Income Tax Return of a  
Foreign Corporation; or other applicable forms.  
except where otherwise specified.  
References to other forms. References in these instructions to  
Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, are intended, if  
applicable, to include Form 1040-SR, U.S. Tax Return for  
Seniors, as well as other tax returns for noncorporate partners  
such as Form 1041, U.S. Income Tax Return for Estates and  
Trusts. Similarly, references to Form 1120, U.S. Corporation  
Income Tax Return, are intended, if applicable, to apply to other  
forms in the 1120 series. References to forms which have been  
replaced are intended, if applicable, to include the replacement  
forms.  
Part XI. Certain partners that have entered into section  
871(m) transactions referencing units in the partnership will use  
any information reported in this part to determine their U.S.  
withholding tax and reporting obligations with respect to those  
transactions under section 871(m) and related rules, including  
for purposes of determining the amounts to report on Form 1042,  
Annual Withholding Tax Return for U.S. Source Income of  
Foreign Persons; and Form 1042-S, Foreign Person's U.S.  
Source Income Subject to Withholding.  
Uses of the parts of Schedule K-3, in general. The following  
are brief descriptions of each part of Schedule K-3. Detailed  
information is provided later in the Specific Instructions.

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
 
to know an entity that took into account related income from the  
arrangement is a covered person with respect to one or more  
partners. For example, you're a payor of a foreign tax if you take  
into account the foreign taxes paid or accrued by the partnership  
under section 702(a)(6). If the partnership wholly owns a reverse  
hybrid (as defined in Regulations section 1.909-2(b)(1)(iv)) and  
you own 10% or more (determined by vote or value) of the  
interest in the partnership, the reverse hybrid is a covered person  
with respect to you. You can’t credit the foreign taxes paid or  
accrued by the partnership with respect to the reverse hybrid  
until you or the partnership takes into account the related income  
of the reverse hybrid. Until then, the taxes are suspended. The  
partnership reported your share of the potentially suspended  
taxes as a result of the application of section 909 on Part III,  
Section 4, line 2E. If you're a corporation, complete Form 1118,  
Schedule G, line E, for taxes suspended under section 909. If  
you're an individual, estate, or trust, include on Form 1116, Part  
III, line 12, taxes suspended under section 909. If you're required  
to complete Form 5471 for a CFC, include in Schedule E (Form  
5471), Schedule E-1, line 3b, column (d), taxes suspended  
under section 909.  
Specific Instructions  
Schedule K-3 Identifying Information  
Item E—Part applicability. The partnership checked the “Yes”  
box to indicate the applicable parts of Schedule K-3. The  
partnership checked the “No” box to indicate the inapplicable  
parts of Schedule K-3.  
Part I. Partner’s Share of  
Partnership’s Other Current Year  
International Information  
This part reports your information for international tax items not  
reported elsewhere on Schedule K-3.  
Box 1. Gain on personal property sale. In general, income  
from the sale of personal property is sourced according to the  
residence of the seller; see section 865. If the partnership sells  
nondepreciable personal property (other than inventory and  
certain intangible property), you, the partner, are treated as the  
seller. Therefore, you’ll need to determine the source of the gain  
reported on Part II, line 1, column (f). In general, if you're a U.S.  
citizen or resident alien individual, the gain is U.S. source.  
However, a U.S. citizen or resident alien individual with a tax  
home as defined in section 911(d)(3) in a foreign country is  
treated as a nonresident if an income tax of at least 10% is  
imposed by and paid to a foreign country regarding such sale;  
see section 865(g)(2). See also sections 865(e)(1) and 865(h)  
for other sourcing provisions for which the information provided  
in box 1 may be helpful.  
If the partnership checked box 1 in Part I, use the information  
attached to Schedule K-3 to determine if a foreign country  
imposed a tax of at least 10% or more on the gain from each  
sale. If so, and you have a tax home in a foreign country, such  
gain is foreign source income and reported on Form 1116. For  
more information, see the instructions for Part II, column (f), later.  
If the partnership checked box 3, and the statement indicates  
that the partnership took into account the related income from  
the splitter arrangement, the taxes are partially or fully  
unsuspended depending on the amount of related income taken  
into account. Even though the taxes are unsuspended, in certain  
cases you might not be eligible to claim a credit for those taxes,  
for example, when the related income is taken into account as  
part of a dividend for which you're eligible for a section 245A  
deduction. To the extent you're eligible to claim a credit for  
unsuspended taxes, these amounts may be claimed on Form  
1118 or 1116, as applicable. If you're required to complete Form  
5471, for a CFC, report the unsuspended taxes on Schedule E,  
(Form 5471), Schedule E-1, line 3a, column (d).  
In some cases, you may take into account related income  
directly that allows you to partially or fully unsuspend taxes, for  
example, by way of a subpart F or GILTI inclusion with respect to  
related income.  
Box 2. Foreign oil and gas taxes. A separate foreign tax credit  
limitation is applied with respect to foreign oil and gas taxes. See  
section 907(a) and Regulations section 1.907(a)-1 for details. If  
the partnership had such taxes, it checked box 2 and attached a  
partially completed Schedule I (Form 1118), Reduction of  
Foreign Oil and Gas Taxes, to Schedule K-3. If you're a  
There might be a splitter arrangement with respect to the  
partner even if the partnership didn't identify one, given

CAUTION  
that the partnership didn't have the information available  
to the partner. Therefore, you must identify such arrangement  
even if box 3 isn't checked.  
corporation, use the partially completed Schedule I to complete  
your Schedule I (Form 1118). If you're an individual, estate, or  
trust, see Form 1116, Part III, line 12, and the associated  
instructions for the applicable reduction for individuals.  
Box 4. Foreign tax translation. If the partnership checked  
box 4, it'll attach a statement described in the instructions for  
Part III, Section 4.  
Box 5. High-taxed income. If the partnership checked box 5,  
you must determine if the passive income reported to you by the  
partnership is treated as income in another separate category.  
Income received or accrued by a U.S. person that would  
Box 3. Splitter arrangements. Foreign taxes with respect to a  
foreign tax credit splitting event are suspended until the related  
income is taken into account by the taxpayer; see section 909.  
There is a foreign tax credit splitting event with respect to foreign  
taxes of a payor if in connection with a splitter arrangement, as  
defined in Regulations section 1.909-2(b), the income was, is, or  
will be taken into account by a covered person; see Regulations  
section 1.909-2(a). A covered person, as defined in Regulations  
section 1.909-1(a)(4), includes, for example, any entity in which  
the payor holds, directly or indirectly, at least a 10% ownership  
interest (determined by vote or value). A payor, as defined in  
Regulations section 1.909-1(a)(3), includes, for example, a  
person that takes foreign income taxes paid or accrued by a  
partnership into account pursuant to section 702(a)(6).  
otherwise be passive income isn't treated as passive income if  
the income is determined to be high-taxed income; see section  
904(d)(2)(B)(iii)(II). You must group your distributive shares of  
passive income from a partnership according to the rules in  
Regulations section 1.904-4(c)(3). However, the portion, if any,  
of the distributive share of income attributable to income earned  
by a domestic partnership through a foreign qualified business  
unit (QBU) is separately grouped under the rules of Regulations  
section 1.904-4(c)(4); see Regulations section 1.904-4(c)(5)(ii).  
The partnership attached Worksheets 1 and/or 2, from the  
Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065).  
If the partnership checked box 3 in Part I, it attached a  
statement that separately identifies any arrangement, along with  
your share of the taxes paid or accrued in connection with the  
arrangement in which the partnership participates that would  
qualify as a splitter arrangement under section 909. The box  
should be checked only if the partnership knows or has reason  
Use Schedule K-3 and your taxes on your other passive  
income (that is, passive income that isn't attributable to your  
distributive share of the partnership’s income as reported on  
Schedule K-3) to determine if you need to assign passive  
income and the associated taxes to another separate category  
of income. You must allocate and apportion your expenses to  
3
Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
   
this passive income to determine if the income is treated as  
income in another separate category. This includes both your  
distributive share of partnership expenses and expense incurred  
by you directly. If you're a corporation, see the Instructions for  
Form 1118 for how to report your income and taxes reclassified  
under the high-taxed income rule. If you're an individual, estate,  
or trust, see the Instructions for Form 1116 for how to report your  
income and taxes reclassified under the high-taxed income rule.  
example, your share of the income or DCL attributable to the  
partnership’s foreign branch or interest in a hybrid entity).  
Box 12. Form 8865 information. If the partnership transferred  
property to a foreign partnership that would subject one or more  
of its domestic partners to reporting under section 6038B and  
Regulations section 1.6038B-2(a)(2) but didn't file Schedule O  
(Form 8865), containing all the information required under  
Regulations section 1.6038B-2, with respect to the transfer, the  
partnership must provide the necessary information for each  
partner to fulfill its reporting requirements under Regulations  
section 1.6038B-2. The partnership should attach the relevant  
information to Schedule K-3, as applicable to the partner.  
Box 6. Section 267A disallowed deductions. If the  
partnership checked box 6 on Part I and attached a statement  
titled "Section 267A Disallowed Deduction," prepare your tax  
return by taking into account that you aren't allowed a deduction  
for any of the amounts listed in the statement. Thus, for example,  
don't claim as a deduction any amount reported on  
Box 13. Other international items. If the partnership has  
transactions, income, deductions, payments, or anything else  
that implicates the international tax provisions of the Code and  
such items aren't otherwise reported on this part or other parts of  
Schedule K-3, the partnership reported that information on a  
statement and checked box 13.  
If you're a CFC partner (or in the case of a pass-through entity  
partner, your partner is a CFC), the partnership attached  
information to Schedule K-3 so that the U.S. shareholder may  
complete the Form 5471. If you're a controlled foreign  
partnership (CFP) partner (or in the case of a pass-through entity  
partner, your partner is a CFP), the partnership attached  
information to Schedule K-3 so that the U.S. partner in the CFP  
may complete Form 8865.  
Schedule K-3, Part II, Section 2, lines 41 through 43, or Part X,  
Section 2, line 9, to the extent listed in the statement as an  
amount for which a deduction is disallowed under section 267A.  
In addition, you may be required to report the amount of your  
disallowed deductions under section 267A. See, for example,  
Form 1120, Schedule K, Question 21, and Form 1120-F, U.S.  
Income Tax Return of a Foreign Corporation, Additional  
Information, item EE.  
Box 6 and the accompanying statement describe only  
interest or royalty paid or accrued by the partnership for  
!
CAUTION  
which the partnership knows, or has reason to know, that  
you're disallowed a deduction under section 267A. In certain  
cases, the partnership may not know, or have reason to know,  
that you're disallowed a deduction for interest or royalty paid or  
accrued by the partnership. See the instructions for Form 1065,  
Schedule B, line 22, for additional information.  
Parts II and III  
Schedule K-3, Parts II and III, report information you use to figure  
the foreign tax credit. In general, a U.S. individual, U.S. citizen or  
U.S. resident individual beneficiary of certain domestic estates  
and trusts, or domestic corporation may claim a credit for taxes  
paid or accrued, and in some cases deemed paid, to foreign  
countries or U.S. territories. In general, foreign corporations and  
nonresident alien individuals may claim a credit for taxes paid or  
accrued to foreign countries or U.S. territories with respect to  
ECI. The amount of foreign tax credit in a tax year is generally  
limited to the lesser of the foreign taxes paid or accrued or the  
U.S. tax on foreign source income. The limitation is figured by  
separate categories of foreign source income, including foreign  
branch category, passive category, and general category. See  
the instructions for Forms 1116 and 1118, as well as Pub. 514,  
Foreign Tax Credit for Individuals, for a summary of the rules for  
determining the sources and separate categories of income.  
Note that the information on Parts II and III may need to be  
included on the Schedule K-3 you file if you're a partnership  
receiving Schedule K-3 as a partner in the partnership. For  
example, another domestic partnership or a foreign partnership  
will need to report the share of foreign source income and taxes  
on the Schedule K-3 (Form 1065 or 8865), Parts II and III.  
Similarly, if you're a CFC partner in the partnership, the U.S.  
shareholder of the CFC will need to report the information  
reported on your Schedule K-3, Parts II and III, on Form 5471, in  
particular, Schedule E (Form 5471).  
For your share of any interest or royalty paid or accrued by the  
partnership, you must apply section 267A and determine  
whether a deduction is disallowed, regardless of whether box 6  
is checked or whether the amount is listed on the accompanying  
statement.  
Boxes 8 and 9. Form 5471 and other forms. If applicable, the  
partnership will attach the relevant portions of Form 5471; Form  
5713, International Boycott Report; and other relevant  
international tax forms. If the partnership has filed Form 8990,  
Limitation on Business Interest Expense Under Section 163(j),  
the partnership will also provide on Schedule K-1 the information  
needed to complete Form 8990, Schedule A, for foreign partners  
which are required to report their distributive share of excess  
business interest expense, excess taxable income, and excess  
business interest income, if any, that is attributable to ECI.  
Box 9 will be checked if the partnership attached Form 8858,  
Form 8621, or both to its Form 1065. If you need information  
from these forms, request it from the partnership.  
Box 10. Partner loan transactions. If this box is checked, the  
partnership identified upstream or downstream partnership loan  
transactions. See Regulations sections 1.861-9(e)(8) and (9) for  
purposes of determining special rules regarding interest  
expense allocation and apportionment if you have such loan  
transactions with the partnership.  
Partnership with U.S. partners and limited or no foreign ac-  
tivity. In many instances, a partnership with no foreign partners,  
no foreign source income, no assets generating foreign source  
income, and no foreign taxes paid or accrued may have reported  
information on Schedule K-3. For example, if you claim the  
foreign tax credit, you generally need certain information from  
the partnership on Schedule K-3, Parts II and III, to complete  
Form 1116 or 1118. This information should have been reported  
in prior years, including before the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, with  
the Schedules K and K-1, and is information you need to  
compute the foreign tax credit limitation, which determines the  
amount of foreign tax credit available to you.  
There might be a partner loan transaction even if the

didn't have the information available to the partner.  
Box 11. Dual consolidated loss. If the partnership checked  
box 11 and you're a domestic corporation (other than a regulated  
investment company (RIC), a real estate investment trust (REIT),  
or an S corporation), the dual consolidated loss (DCL) rules  
pursuant to Regulations sections 1.1503(d)-1 through  
1.1503(d)-8 may apply to your share of certain partnership items.  
In order to comply with the DCL rules, take into account the  
information provided in the attachment to this schedule (for  
Exceptions. You may not have received Schedule K-3 if the  
partnership was eligible for an exception. See Domestic Filing

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
Exception in the Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and  
K-3 (Form 1065). Also, if you (or, if you're a pass-through entity,  
your direct or indirect partner) are eligible to claim a foreign tax  
credit, you aren't required to receive Schedule K-3, Parts II and  
III, if you or your partners aren't required to complete Form 1116.  
This could be the case, for example, because you (or, if you're a  
pass-through entity, your direct or indirect partners) qualify for an  
exception to filing the Form 1116. See section 904(j) and Form  
1116 exemption exception in the Partnership Instructions for  
Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065). However, see reasons  
below for requesting the Schedule K-3 when you're required to  
file Form 1116.  
Example 2—domestic filing exception met; issuance of  
Schedule K-3 not required. A married couple, U.S. citizens,  
each own a 50% interest in USP, a domestic partnership. USP  
invests in a RIC. USP receives a Form 1099 from the RIC  
reporting $100 of creditable foreign taxes paid or accrued on  
passive category foreign source income. USP doesn't have any  
foreign activity aside from that of the RIC. USP notifies the  
couple on an attachment to the Schedule K-1 that they won’t  
receive Schedule K-3 unless they request it. The married couple  
doesn’t request Schedule K-3 from USP for tax year 2023.  
Because USP qualified for the domestic filing exception, USP  
didn't complete Schedule K-3 for the couple.  
partnership. In general, a partner apportions interest expense to  
reduce U.S. source gross income or foreign source gross income  
based on the tax book value of its assets, including its  
distributive share of the partnership's interest expense and  
assets; see section 864(e)(2) and Regulations section  
1.861-9(e). Taking into account the assets of a domestic  
partnership generating solely U.S. source income would result in  
more expense allocated to U.S. source gross income and less  
expense allocated to reduce foreign source gross income.  
Additional foreign source income increases the partner's foreign  
tax credit limitation, and the ability of the partner to claim foreign  
tax credits. The regulations provide exceptions to asset method  
apportionment for certain less-than-10% limited partners, and  
the instructions take this into account such that the partnership  
isn't required to provide these partners with certain portions of  
Schedule K-3. Schedule K-1 doesn't separately state the  
distributive share of the partnership's total interest expense, or  
the tax book value of the assets, whereas the Schedule K-3  
contains this information. See Regulations section 1.861-9(e).  
See the instructions for Part II, lines 39 through 40 and lines 41  
through 43, and Part III, Section 2, for further guidance.  
Example 3—Parts II and III required for partnership with  
no foreign activity. U.S. citizens A and B own equal interests in  
USP, a domestic partnership. USP has no foreign activity. In Year  
1, A pays $2,000 of foreign income taxes on passive category  
income other than capital gains reported to A on a payee  
statement. A has interest expense of $5,000 and USP doesn't  
have interest expense. None of A’s interest expense is directly  
allocable. A doesn't have an overall domestic loss in tax year  
2023.  
Because A must complete Form 1116 to claim a foreign tax  
credit, A requests a Schedule K-3 by the 1-month date, and  
therefore the domestic filing exception doesn't apply to USP with  
respect to A. USP provided Parts II and III of Schedule K-3 to A.  
A’s share of the tax book value of USP’s assets is $50,000, which  
is reported on Schedule K-3, Part III, Section 2, column (a). Not  
including its distributive share of the assets of USP, the tax book  
value of A’s assets is $50,000. Of A’s assets, $10,000 generate  
passive category foreign source income and $40,000 generate  
U.S. source income. A has passive category foreign source  
taxable income before interest expense of $8,000. A’s U.S. tax  
rate is 25%. A’s interest expense and USP’s assets are  
Reasons to request Schedule K-3 from domestic partner-  
ships with limited or no foreign activity. Section 904  
generally limits the foreign tax credit to the portion of U.S. tax  
liability attributable to foreign source taxable income. Foreign  
source taxable income is foreign source gross income less  
allocable expenses. In general, the partnership completed the  
Schedule K-3, Parts II and III, because the partnership’s gross  
income, gross receipts, expenses, assets, and foreign taxes paid  
may affect the foreign tax credit available to the partner. The  
source of certain gross income is determined by the partner. In  
addition, some expenses of the partnership are allocated and  
apportioned by the partner. Because the foreign tax credit  
limitation is computed by the partner, it’s not possible for the  
partner to assume that all income of the partnership is U.S.  
source and all expenses of the partnership reduce U.S. source  
income. Also, the allocation and apportionment of certain partner  
expenses take into account distributive shares of assets and  
income of the partnership that aren't otherwise reported on the  
Schedule K-1. For example, for sourcing purposes, personal  
property sold by the partnership is treated as sold by the  
partners; see section 865(i)(5). Generally, income from the sale  
of certain personal property (excluding inventory) is sourced  
according to the residence of the seller. In cases in which the  
partner is a pass-through entity, the partnership might not know  
the ultimate residence of the first non-pass-through partner. The  
distributive share of the partnership's gain on the sale of  
personal property isn't separately stated on Schedule K-1, but is  
reported on Schedule K-3, Part II.  
As another example, the partner's R&E expense (which  
includes the distributive share of the partnership's R&E expense)  
is allocated and apportioned by the partner; see Regulations  
section 1.861-17(f). R&E expense is allocated and apportioned  
based on the gross receipts by Standard Industrial Classification  
(SIC) code. The distributive share of the R&E expense by SIC  
code isn't separately stated on Schedule K-1, but is reported on  
Schedule K-3, Part II. The partner needs Schedule K-3, Part III,  
Section 1, for the partner's share of the partnership's gross  
receipts by SIC code for purposes of allocating and apportioning  
R&E expense.  
In some cases, the partner will be able to use the information  
reported on Parts II and III to increase the foreign tax credit  
limitation, and the amount of available foreign tax credit to the  
partner. For example, Schedule K-3, Part III, Section 2, provides  
the partner with the tax book value of the assets of the  
characterized in the same category under sections 163 and 469  
for purposes of Regulations section 1.861-9T(d). A uses the tax  
book value (as opposed to the alternative tax book value) to  
allocate and apportion interest expense.  
A’s interest expense is apportioned between U.S. source and  
foreign source income ratably based on the tax book value of A’s  
U.S. source and foreign source assets. Without taking into  
account the distributive share of USP’s assets, the amount of A’s  
interest expense that would reduce foreign source gross income  
is $1,000 ($5,000 x $10,000/$50,000). Therefore, A’s foreign  
source taxable income would be $7,000 ($8,000 − $1,000). At a  
25% U.S. tax rate, A may only use $1,750 (25% (0.25) x $7,000)  
of the $2,000 of foreign taxes. See section 904.  
Taking into account the distributive share of USP’s assets, the  
amount of A’s interest expense that reduces passive category  
foreign source gross income is $500 ($5,000 x  
$10,000/$100,000). Therefore, A’s passive category foreign  
source taxable income would be $7,500 ($8,000 − $500). At a  
25% U.S. tax rate, A may use $1,875 (25% (0.25) x $7,500) of  
the $2,000 of foreign taxes—an additional foreign tax credit  
amount of $125 after taking into account A’s share of the tax  
book value of the partnership assets.  
B doesn't request a Schedule K-3 from USP for tax year  
2023. Under the domestic filing exception, USP didn't complete  
Schedule K-3 for B.

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
Example 4—Part II, not Part III, required for partnership  
with no foreign activity. The facts are the same as in  
Example 3, except that A has $5,000 of expenses described in  
Regulations section 1.861-8(e)(9), and A and USP have no other  
expenses. Further, A’s share of USP’s gross income is $50,000.  
Not including its distributive share of the income of USP, A’s  
gross income is $50,000. Of A’s gross income, $5,000 is foreign  
source gross income and $45,000 is U.S. source gross income.  
USP doesn't have any gross income the source of which is  
determined by the partner.  
A’s expenses must be ratably apportioned based on A’s gross  
income (including its distributive share of the income of USP);  
see Regulations section 1.861-8(c)(3). Therefore, USP provided  
Schedule K-3, Part II, to A. Before taking into account the  
distributive share of USP’s gross income, the amount of A’s  
expenses described in Regulations section 1.861-8(e)(9) that  
reduce foreign source gross income is $500 ($5,000 x  
$5,000/$50,000). Therefore, A’s foreign source taxable income  
would be $4,500 ($5,000 − $500). At a 25% U.S. tax rate, A may  
only use $1,125 (25% (0.25) x $4,500) of the $2,000 of foreign  
taxes. See section 904.  
Taking into account the distributive share of USP’s gross  
income, the amount of A’s expenses described in Regulations  
section 1.861-8(e)(9) that reduce foreign source gross income is  
$250 ($5,000 x $5,000/$100,000). Therefore, A’s foreign source  
taxable income would be $4,750 ($5,000 − $250). At a 25% U.S.  
tax rate, A may use $1,187.50 (25% (0.25) x $4,750) of the  
$2,000 of foreign taxes—an additional foreign tax credit amount  
of $62.50 after taking into account A’s distributive share of the  
gross income of USP.

for an exception to passive category if income is subject to a  
high rate of foreign tax.  
Column (f). Sourced by partner. You must determine the  
source and separate category of the income reported in this  
column. The income in this column will generally be with respect  
to sale of personal property other than inventory, depreciable  
property, and certain intangible property sourced under section  
865. This column might also include foreign currency gain on a  
section 988 transaction. If you're a U.S. citizen or resident, sales  
and gains reported in this column will generally be U.S. source  
income and not reported on Form 1116 or 1118 unless you elect  
to re-source such income under an applicable income tax treaty.  
There are certain exceptions, for example, a U.S. citizen or  
resident with a tax home (as defined in section 911(d)(3)) in  
another country is treated as a nonresident if an income tax of at  
least 10% is imposed by and paid to a foreign country regarding  
such sale. See the instructions for box 1 of Part I, earlier. Also,  
the source of foreign currency gain or loss on section 988  
transactions may be determined by reference to the residence of  
the QBU on whose books the asset, liability, or item of income or  
expense is properly reflected. See the Instructions for Form 1118  
and Pub. 514 for additional details.  
Section 1—Gross Income (Lines 1 Through 24)  
Form 1118, Schedule A, requires a corporation to separately  
report certain types of gross income by source and separate  
category. Schedule K-3, Part II, lines 1 through 23, generally  
follow the separately reported types of gross income on  
Schedule A. Individuals must follow the same sourcing rules, but  
Form 1116 only requires reporting of total gross income from  
foreign sources by separate category. Therefore, those required  
to file Form 1116 would report line 24, taking into account  
section 904(b)(2) and PTEP adjustments, by country on their  
Form 1116, Part I, line 1a. Because all gross income is reported  
on one line on the Form 1116, there is no need to specify other  
reporting lines for gross income below.  
Because A and USP don't have R&E expense or interest  
expense, and because USP didn't pay or accrue any foreign  
taxes, USP didn't provide Schedule K-3, Part III, to A.  
Note. A partner may need the distributive share of the  
partnership’s gross income for purposes of allocating and  
apportioning expenses other than those described in  
Regulations section 1.861-8(e)(9) and should request this  
information from the partnership if it's needed and if it has not  
been provided.  
Country code. Forms 1116 and 1118 require the taxpayer to  
report the foreign country or U.S. territory with respect to which  
the gross income is sourced. On lines 1 through 24, report for  
each gross income item, on a separate line (A, B, or C), the  
two-letter code from the list at IRS.gov/CountryCodes for the  
foreign country or U.S. territory within which the gross income is  
sourced. If a type of income is sourced from more than three  
countries, a statement is attached to expand Schedule K-3, Part  
II, for that type of income to report the additional countries.  
Part II. Foreign Tax Credit Limitation  
Column (a). U.S. source. Don't report amounts in this column  
on Form 1116 or 1118 unless you elect to re-source such  
income under an applicable U.S. income tax treaty. See sections  
904(d)(6) and 865(h). See the instructions for Forms 1116 and  
1118 for income re-sourced by treaty reported as a separate  
category of income.  
Note. For Part II, column (f), if the partnership entered the code  
XX, it was because it couldn’t determine the country or U.S.  
territory with respect to which the gross income is sourced  
because the source is determined by your residence, or for  
pass-through entities, the residence of the first non-pass-through  
partner.  
The partnership entered for column (f) the foreign country to  
which the partnership paid tax of at least 10% of the gain. See  
sections 865(e) and 865(g).  
Each gross income item (for example, sales vs. interest  
income) may have different countries listed on A, B, C, etc.,  
given that the partnership might not have sales income and  
interest income, for example, from the same country. Line 24  
should sum each country’s total income reported on Part II,  
regardless of the line on which such income is reported, whether  
A, B, C, etc.  
Exceptions. The instructions for Forms 1116 and 1118  
specify exceptions from the requirement to report gross income  
by foreign country or U.S. territory with respect to RICs and  
section 863(b). See the instructions for Forms 1116 and 1118 for  
these exceptions that apply.  
Columns (b) through (e). Foreign source. Add the amounts  
reported in these columns to your other income in these  
separate categories and report the total amounts on the  
applicable Form 1116, Part I, or Form 1118, Schedule A.  
Exception. If you're a limited partner, you hold less than 10%  
of the value of the partnership, and you didn't hold your interest  
in the ordinary course of the partner’s active trade or business,  
then any amounts reported on Schedule K-3, Part II, Section 1,  
and Part III, Section 1, columns (b), (d), and (e); Part III, Section  
3, columns (c) and (d); and Part III, Section 5, columns (b), (c),  
(e), and (f), should generally be reported as passive category  
income. Deductions reported on Part II, Section 2, columns (b),  
(d), and (e), should generally be reported as reducing passive  
category income. Similarly, any foreign taxes paid or accrued on  
foreign source income in Part III, Section 4, columns (b), (c), (e),  
and (f), should generally be assigned to passive category  
income; see Regulations section 1.904-4(n)(1)(ii). If you're a  
limited partner that owns less than 10% of a capital and profits  
interest in the partnership, Part III, Section 2, was not completed  
by the partnership; see Regulations section 1.861-9(e)(4). See  
6
Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
   
Note. Schedule K-3 reports gross income by country or U.S.  
territory because such information is requested on Forms 1116  
and 1118. Income and taxes are reported by country on the  
Forms 1116 and 1118 so that the IRS may, for example, initially  
evaluate whether taxpayers are claiming credits for compulsory  
payments to foreign governments.  
Line 28. Net long-term capital loss. Line 28 doesn't include  
losses reported on line 29.  
Lines 16 and 46. Section 986(c) gain and loss. This line  
reports the partnership’s share of a lower-tier pass-through  
entity’s section 986(c) gain or loss, and the amount of section  
986(c) gain or loss on distributions of PTEP sourced from the  
partnership’s annual PTEP accounts. You’ll need to determine  
your foreign currency gain or loss under section 986(c) with  
respect to distributed PTEP sourced from annual PTEP accounts  
that you have with respect to a foreign corporation, using  
Schedule K-3, Part V.  
The amount of foreign currency gain and loss that you report  
on Form 1118 and other forms, for example, Form 1040 or 1120,  
will include your share of the partnership’s foreign currency gain  
or loss under section 986(c) and your own foreign currency gain  
or loss under section 986(c). If you file Form 1118, complete the  
following.  
Line 1. Sales. If you file Form 1118, add the amount reported  
on this line to your other sales and report the total on the Form  
1118, Schedule A, column 7, by separate category. See Column  
(f). Sourced by partner, earlier, for more information.  
Line 2. Gross income from performance of services. If you  
file Form 1118, add the amount reported on this line to your other  
gross income from performance of services and report the total  
on the Form 1118, Schedule A, column 8, by separate category.  
Lines 3, 4, and 10. Rental income, royalties, and license  
fees. If you file Form 1118, add the amount reported on this line

Lines 7 and 8. Ordinary dividends and qualified dividends.  
Some of the amounts reported on these lines may be attributable  
to PTEP in annual PTEP accounts that you have with respect to  
a foreign corporation and are therefore excludable from your  
gross income. If you file Form 1116, don't include the amount  
attributable to PTEP in your annual accounts on Part I, line 1a. If  
you file Form 1118, add the amount reported on this line, less the  
amount attributable to PTEP in your annual PTEP accounts, to  
your other dividends and report the total in Form 1118,  
If you entered an amount in Form 1118, Schedule A, column  
13(h), enter the type of loss as section 986(c) loss in Form 1118,

separate category.  
3. Identify the type of gain as section 987 gain in Form 1118,  
Lines 11 through 15 and 27 through 30. Capital gains and  
losses. Section 904(b)(2)(B) contains rules regarding  
adjustments to account for capital gain rate differentials (as  
defined in section 904(b)(3)(D)) for any tax year. These rules  
apply to individuals and may require adjustments to the amounts  
on lines 11 through 15, which in turn affect the total amount on  
line 24. See the Instructions for Form 1116 for additional  
information. If you file Form 1116, report Schedule K-3, Part II,  
lines 27 through 30, on Form 1116, Part I, line 5, by separate  
category. If you file Form 1118, add the amounts reported on  
Schedule K-3, Part II, lines 11 through 15, to other gross income  
you report on the Form 1118, Schedule A, column 11, by  
separate category. Add the amounts reported on Schedule K-3,  
Part II, lines 27 through 30, to other amounts you report on Form  
1118, Schedule A, column 13(j); Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II,

13(h), enter the type of loss as section 987 loss in Form 1118,  
Schedule A, column 13(i).  
Lines 18 and 48. Section 988 gain and loss. The source of  
foreign currency gain or loss on section 988 transactions is  
generally determined by reference to the residence of the  
taxpayer or QBU on whose books the asset, liability, or item of  
income or expense is properly reflected. If the source of the  
foreign currency gain or loss is determined by reference to the  
residence of the taxpayer, the foreign currency gain and loss will  
be reported in column (f). For example, if you're a U.S. resident,  
such gain or loss is U.S. source and wouldn’t be reported on  
Form 1116 or 1118. If you file Form 1118, complete the  
following.  
Line 12. Net long-term capital gain. Line 12 doesn't include  
gains reported on lines 13, 14, and 15.  
Line 14. Unrecaptured section 1250 gain. If gain is both  
unrecaptured section 1250 gain and net section 1231 gain, the  
gain was reported on line 14 and not on line 15, but the  
partnership included an attachment indicating the amount of  
unrecaptured section 1250 gain that is also net section 1231  
gain.

Form 1118, Schedule A, column 13(d), by separate category.  
Line 20. Other income. If you file Form 1118, add the amount  
reported on this line to your other income and report the total in  
Form 1118, Schedule A, column 11, by separate category.  
Lines 34 and 36. Allocable rental, royalty, and licensing ex-  
penses (other than depreciation, depletion, and amortiza-  
tion). If you file Form 1118, add the amounts reported on these  
lines to your other allocable rental, royalty, and licensing  
expenses (other than depreciation, depletion, and amortization)  
and report the total in Form 1118, Schedule A, column 13(e), as  
applicable, by separate category.  
Line 24. Total gross income. If you file Form 1116, add the  
amounts from lines A, B, and C (and additional lines, if  
applicable) to your other foreign source gross income from those  
countries, and enter the totals on Form 1116, Part I, line 1a,  
taking into account any section 904(b) adjustments for capital  
gains, as described earlier, for Schedule K-3, Part II, lines 11  
through 15, and lines 27 through 30; or PTEP adjustments, as  
described earlier, for Schedule K-3, Part II, lines 7 and 8, and  
lines 16 and 46.  
If box 6 of Part I is checked, royalty expenses may  
include amounts for which you aren't allowed a

CAUTION  
deduction under section 267A. See the statement with  
respect to box 6 of Part I attached to Schedule K-3.  
If you file Form 1118, add the amounts from lines A, B, and C  
(and additional lines, if applicable) to your other foreign source  
gross income from those countries, and enter the totals in Form  
1118, Schedule A, column 11, taking into account any PTEP  
adjustments, as described earlier, for Schedule K-3, Part II, lines  
7 and 8, and lines 16 and 46.  
Line 38. Charitable contributions. Charitable contribution  
deductions shouldn’t be reported on Form 1116 or 1118  
because such deductions are allocable to U.S. source income.  
Lines 39 and 40. Interest expense specifically allocable un-  
der Regulations sections 1.861-10 and -10T. If you file Form  
1118, add the amounts reported on these lines to your other  
interest expense specifically allocable under Regulations  
sections 1.861-10 and -10T and report the total in Form 1118,  
Schedule H, Part II, lines 1b and c, column (b).  
Section 2—Deductions (Lines 25 Through 54)  
Form 1118, Schedule A, requires a corporation to separately  
report certain types of deductions and losses by source and  
separate category. Separate reporting is required because each  
type of deduction may be allocated and apportioned according  
to a different methodology; see Regulations sections 1.861-8  
through -20. For purposes of allocating and apportioning  
expenses, in general, a partner adds the distributive share of the  
partnership's deductions with other deductions incurred directly  
by the partner or through other pass-through entities including  
partnerships, S corporations, and trusts (see Regulations  
section 1.904-5(a)(4)(iv) for a definition of pass-through entity);  
see Regulations section 1.861-8(e)(15). Schedule K-3, Part II,  
lines 25 through 53, generally follow the separately reported  
types of deductions and losses on Form 1118, Schedule A.  
Individuals must generally follow the same expense allocation  
and apportionment rules, but Form 1116 only requires separate  
reporting of certain deductions. See Form 1116, Part I, lines 2  
through 5.  
Lines 41 through 43. Other interest expense. If you file Form  
1118, add the sum of the interest expense included on these  
lines to your other interest expense and report the total in Form  
1118, Schedule H, Part II, line 2, column (b). If you file Form  
1116, allocate and apportion the sum of the interest expense  
included on these lines and report the allocated and apportioned  
amounts on the applicable separate category Form 1116, Part I,  
line 4b. Interest expense incurred by certain individuals, estates,  
and trusts is allocated and apportioned based on the categories  
of interest expense in sections 163 and 469: active trade or  
business interest, investment interest, or passive activity interest,  
adjusted for any interest expense directly allocated under  
Regulations section 1.861-10T. See Regulations section  
1.861-9(e)(3) and Temporary Regulations sections 1.861-9T(d)  
(1) and (3).  
Exception. If you're a limited partner, and your ownership,  
together with ownership by persons that bear a relationship to  
the partner described in section 267(b) or section 707, of the  
capital and profits interest of the partnership is less than 10%,  
your distributive share of the partnership’s interest expense  
reduces passive category foreign source gross income. See  
Regulations sections 1.861-9(e)(4)(i) and 1.904-4(n)(1)(ii) for  
further guidance. If you file Form 1118, report interest expense  
from such limited partners on the passive category Form 1118,  
Schedule A, column 13(j), unless the high-taxed income  
exception of section 904(d)(2)(B)(iii)(II) is applicable. If you file  
Line 25. Expenses allocable to sales income. If you file Form  
1118, add the amount reported on this line to your other  
expenses allocable to sales income and report the total in Form  
1118, Schedule A, column 13(f), by separate category.  
Line 26. Expenses allocable to gross income from perform-  
ances of services. If you file Form 1118, add the amount  
reported on this line to your other expenses allocable to gross  
income from performance of services and report the total in  
Form 1118, Schedule A, column 13(g), by separate category.

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
Form 1116, report such interest expense on the passive  
category Form 1116, Part I, line 4b, unless the high-taxed  
income exception of section 904(d)(2)(B)(iii)(II) is applicable.  
However, if your partnership interest is held in the ordinary  
course of your active trade or business, your share of the  
partnership's interest expense is apportioned in accordance with  
your share of gross foreign source income in each separate  
category and gross U.S. source income from the partnership.  
Report the interest expense on the appropriate Form 1118 or  
1116, as applicable.  
Exception. See Regulations sections 1.861-9(e)(8) and (9)  
for special rules concerning downstream and upstream  
partnership loans that require a matching of related interest  
income to interest expense allocations.  
Instructions for Form 1118 to determine the exclusive  
apportionment of the R&E expenses.  
Section 2—Interest Expense Apportionment  
Factors  
This section includes the information that you need to allocate  
and apportion your interest expense for foreign tax credit  
limitation purposes. This part is relevant for all partners with  
interest expense (including the share of the partnership's interest  
expense) except certain limited partners with less than a 10%  
partnership interest; see Regulations section 1.861-9(e)(4)(i).  
Individual, estate, and trust partners will use this Section 2 to  
determine the interest expense reported on Form 1116, Part I,  
line 4b. See the Instructions for Form 1116. Because the interest  
expense is reported on one line on the Form 1116, and the face  
of Form 1116 doesn't require further detail with respect to the  
allocation and apportionment of interest expense, the  
If box 6 of Part I is checked, interest expense may

CAUTION  
deduction under section 267A. See the statement with  
instructions below don't refer to Form 1116.  
respect to box 6 of Part I attached to Schedule K-3.  
Exception. See Regulations section 1.861-9T(d)(1) for an  
exception to the apportionment of interest expense when an  
individual’s foreign source income (including income excluded  
under section 911) doesn't exceed $5,000. Such interest  
expense may be allocated entirely to U.S. source income.  
Corporate partners will use this Section 2 to determine the  
interest expense reported on Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II.  
The particular line reporting on Form 1118 is specified below.  
Stewardship expenses. In the case of the partner’s  
stewardship expenses incurred to oversee the partnership, the  
partnership's value is determined and characterized under the  
asset method in Regulations section 1.861-9 (taking into  
account any adjustments under sections 734(b) and 743(b)); see  
Regulations section 1.861-8(e)(4)(ii)(C). Therefore, the  
instructions with respect to Part III, Section 2, generally apply to  
the partner’s stewardship expenses.  
Line 45. Foreign taxes not creditable but deductible. See  
the instructions for Forms 1116 and 1118 for examples of foreign  
taxes not creditable but deductible.  
Note. Foreign taxes that are creditable (even if a partner  
chooses to deduct such taxes) aren't reported as expenses on  
Part II. Don't claim a foreign tax credit on Form 1116 or 1118 for  
amounts reported on line 45. However, you may claim a  
deduction for such taxes on the applicable form, including Forms  
1040 and 1120.  
Line 3. Report the inside basis of the partnership assets  
reported on line 3 in Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II, line 1b,  
column (a).  
Line 4. Report the inside basis of the partnership assets  
reported on line 4 in Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II, line 1c,  
column (a).  
Creditable foreign taxes are reported on Part III, Section 4.  
Line 49. Other allocable deductions. If you file Form 1118,  
add the amounts reported on this line to your other allocable  
deductions and enter the total in Form 1118, Schedule A,  
column 13(j), by separate category.  
Line 5. Report the inside basis of the partnership assets  
reported on line 5 in Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II, line 1d,  
column (a).  
Line 50. Other apportioned share of deductions. If you file  
Form 1118, add the amounts reported on this line to your other  
apportioned share of deductions and report the total in Form  
1118, Schedule H, Part II, column (e); or Form 1118,  
Line 6. Report the amounts on line 6 in Form 1118, Schedule H,  
Part II, lines 2 and 3, column (a), as applicable.  
Line 6a is the sum of lines 1 and 2 less the sum of lines 3, 4,  
and 5. Line 6a is divided into the types of assets on lines 6b, 6c,  
and 6d if you're a partner that is an individual, estate, or trust, or  
if you're a pass-through entity partner that may have an  
individual, estate, or trust as a partner.  
Example 5—Parts II and III: asset method apportionment  
of interest expense. A, a U.S. citizen, owns a 10% interest in  
USP, domestic partnership. USP is engaged in the active  
conduct of a U.S. trade or business. USP’s business generates  
only domestic source income. USP separately has an  
investment portfolio consisting of several less-than-10% stock  
investments. USP has a bank loan. The proceeds of the bank  
loan were divided equally between the business and the  
investment portfolio. A’s only business assets and investment  
assets are its distributive share of those owned by USP. A’s only  
interest expense is that from its distributive share of the USP  
loan.  
Schedule H, Part III, column (e), by separate category.  
Part III. Other Information for  
Preparation of Form 1116 or 1118  
Section 1—R&E Expenses Apportionment  
Factors  
This section reports the information that you need to allocate and  
apportion your R&E expense for foreign tax credit limitation  
purposes. R&E expenses are allocated and apportioned by the  
partner; see Regulations section 1.861-17(f)(1). Individual,  
estate, and trust partners will use this Section 1 to determine the  
R&E expense reported on Form 1116, Part I. See the  
Instructions for Form 1116. Corporate partners will use this  
Section 1 to determine the R&E expense reported on Form  
1118, Schedule H, Part I.  
A’s share of the interest expense for USP’s business is  
$2,000. It's apportioned on the basis of business assets.  
Because all business income is domestic source, the business  
assets are deemed domestic assets and reported in

income by the partner and doesn’t need to be reported on Form  
1116.  
Section 4—Foreign Taxes  
Section 4 reports your share of the foreign taxes paid or accrued  
by the partnership by separate category and source.  
The interest expense for A’s share of USP’s investments is  
$2,000 and is reported on Schedule K-3, Part II, line 42, column  
(f). The investment interest must be apportioned on the basis of  
investment assets. A’s distributive share of the adjusted basis in  
USP’s stock is $8,000 with respect to the stock generating  
domestic source income and $12,000 with respect to the stock  
generating foreign source passive income. Such amounts are  
reported on Schedule K-3, Part III, Section 2, line 6c, columns  
(a) and (c), respectively. $800 (($8,000/$20,000) x $2,000) is  
apportioned to domestic source income and $1,200  
Line 1. Report the taxes on line 1 in the applicable portions of  
Form 1116, Part II, and Form 1118, Schedule B, Part I, for the  
applicable separate category of income. To complete those  
parts, refer to the statement attached to Schedule K-3, referred  
to earlier in the instructions with respect to box 4 of Part I with the  
following information.  
The dates on which the taxes were paid or accrued.  
The exchange rates used.  
The amounts in both foreign currency and U.S. dollars. See  
(($12,000/$20,000) x $2,000) is apportioned to foreign source  
passive income. The amount apportioned to foreign source  
passive income is reported on the passive category Form 1116,  
line 4b.  
section 986(a).  
The partner takes its distributive share of the partnership’s  
foreign taxes into account in the partner’s tax year with or within  
which the partnership’s tax year ends regardless of whether the  
partner or partnership takes foreign taxes into account on the  
cash or accrual basis.  
Lines 7 and 8. The amounts reported on lines 7 and 8 are  
subsets of the amounts reported on line 6 representing the value  
of stock held by the partnership in certain foreign corporations. In  
determining its foreign tax credit limitation, a corporate partner  
should disregard interest expense that is properly allocable to  
stock of a 10%-owned foreign corporation that has been  
characterized as a section 245A asset. See section 904(b)(4)  
and Regulations section 1.904(b)-3(a)(1)(ii).  
Line 2. Report the total reduction of taxes for each separate  
category of income from line 2 on Form 1116, Part III, line 12;  
and Form 1118, Schedule B, Part II, line 3.  
Line 3. Report the redetermined foreign taxes from line 3 on  
Schedule L (Form 1118), Foreign Tax Redeterminations, and  
Schedule C (Form 1116), Foreign Tax Redetermination, as  
applicable. In addition, the partner should file an amended  
return, if required, to report the foreign tax redetermination and  
change in U.S. tax liability. See the instructions for Form 1116 or  
1118 and Regulations sections 1.905-3 through -5 for additional  
information.  
The amount of properly allocable deductions is determined by  
treating the section 245A subgroup for each separate category  
as a statutory grouping for purposes of allocating and  
apportioning interest deductions on the basis of assets. Assets  
in a section 245A subgroup only include stock of a specified  
10%-owned foreign corporation that has been characterized as a  
section 245A asset. The stock is characterized as a section  
245A asset to the extent it generates income that would  
generate a dividends received deduction under section 245A if  
distributed. This doesn't include income that is included as  
GILTI, subpart F income, or a section 956 inclusion or income  
described in section 245(a)(5) (which gives rise to a dividends  
received deduction under section 245 instead of section 245A).  
Note. If you're an accrual method taxpayer, generally you may  
not claim a credit for additional taxes reported on line 3 by the  
partnership unless those taxes have been paid. See section  
905(c)(2) and Regulations section 1.905-3(a).  
Use the information in the attachment provided by the  
partnership to complete Schedule L (Form 1118), and/or  
Schedule C (Form 1116), as applicable.  
If the partnership checked the “Contested tax” box and  
reported information about a contested foreign income tax on  
line 3, the partnership has remitted a contested foreign income  
tax liability to a foreign country, and you as the partner may elect  
to claim a provisional foreign tax credit for your distributive share  
of such contested foreign income tax liability; see Regulations  
section 1.905-1(f)(2). To make the election to claim the  
provisional foreign tax credit, file Form 7204, Consent To Extend  
the Time To Assess Tax Related To Contested Foreign Income  
Taxes—Provisional Foreign Tax Credit Agreement. See the  
instructions for Form 1116 or 1118, and the Instructions for Form  
7204, for additional information.  
In the case of a specified 10%-owned foreign corporation that  
isn't a CFC, if you're eligible for the section 245A deduction for  
distributions received from that corporation, all of the value of its  
stock is generally in a section 245A subgroup because the stock  
generally generates dividends eligible for the section 245A  
deduction (and can't generate an inclusion under section 951(a)  
(1) or 951A(a)). See Regulations section 1.904(b)-3(c)(2).  
The amount reported on line 7 is the value of stock of the  
partnership-owned specified 10%-owned foreign corporation  
that isn't a CFC. Use the information provided in the attachment  
to line 7 to determine if such amount should be reported on Form  
1118, Schedule H, Part II, lines 3a through 3f, as (a) section  
245A dividend, or (b) Other.  
If the specified 10%-owned foreign corporation is a CFC, you  
must subdivide a portion of the value of stock in each separate  
category and in the residual grouping for U.S. source income  
between a section 245A and non-section 245A subgroup under  
the rules described in Regulations section 1.861-13(a)(5).  
The amount reported on line 8 is the value of the stock in  
partnership-owned CFCs. Use the information provided in the  
attachment to line 8 to determine if such amount should be  
reported on Form 1118, Schedule H, Part II, lines 3a through 3f,  
as (a) section 245A dividend, or (b) Other.  
Section 5—Other Tax Information  
Section 5 reports the section 743(b) income adjustments  
allocated to you by source, separate category, and class of gross  
income. The section 743(b) income adjustments should be  
included as relevant in other parts of the Schedule K-3. For  
example, the section 743(b) income adjustments should be  
reflected as part of the total depreciation reported on Part II,  
Section 2. Therefore, you don't need to adjust other reported  
amounts for the section 743(b) income adjustments.  
No credit is allowed for taxes paid or accrued to a country  
described in section 901(j). However, a deduction is generally  
allowed with respect to a tax described in section 901(j).  
Section 3—Foreign-Derived Intangible Income  
(FDII) Deduction Apportionment Factors  
Section 3 reports the information necessary for you to assign the  
FDII deduction to a source and separate category such that it  
may be reported on Form 1118, Schedule A; or Form 1116, Part  
I.

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
QBAI used to determine its DTIR on Form 8993, Part I, line 7b.  
However, for certain items determined by the partner that affect  
the amount of a partner’s adjusted bases included in its share of  
partnership specified tangible property, the partner must use and  
the partnership must provide information that separately  
distinguishes between the amount of the adjusted bases in a  
partnership's tangible property that the domestic corporation  
would include in its adjusted bases in the partnership specified  
tangible property and the amount of the adjusted bases in the  
partnership's tangible property that the domestic corporation  
would not include in its adjusted bases in the partnership  
specified tangible property, see Regulations section  
1.250(b)-2(g).  
Part IV. Information on Partner’s  
Section 250 Deduction With Respect  
to Foreign Derived Intangible Income  
(FDII)  
A domestic corporate partner should use this Part to calculate  
the partner's FDII on Form 8993.  
Section 1—Information To Determine Deduction  
Eligible Income (DEI) and Qualified Business  
Asset Investment (QBAI) on Form 8993  
Lines 1 through 7. A partner must include the amount reported  
to it on line 1 in calculating the gross income on Form 8993,  
line 1. The partner must also include any amounts that it  
identifies from Schedule K-3, lines 3 through 7, that aren't  
attributable to its DEI on Form 8993, Part I, lines 2a through 2f.  
Use information on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2, lines 2(a)  
through (c), and in Section 3 to determine the expenses properly  
allocable to DEI on Form 8993, Part I, line 5.  
Example 6—partner’s reporting of DEI and QBAI. DC is a  
domestic corporation that owns a 50% interest in a domestic  
partnership, USP. USP manufactures and sells Product A and  
provides services solely to U.S. persons. The services give rise  
to domestic oil and gas extraction income (DOGEI) for purposes  
of section 250(b)(3)(A)(i)(V). USP has $200 in gross receipts  
from sales of Product A, $100 in cost of goods sold, and $50 in  
properly allocated and apportioned deductions (none of which  
are interest or R&E expenses). USP reports these amounts on  
Schedule K-2, Part IV, Section 1, lines 2a through 2c,  
Section 2—Information To Determine  
Foreign-Derived Deduction Eligible Income  
(FDDEI) on Form 8993  
Line 9. Gross receipts. A partner must include the amounts  
reported to it on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2, line 9, on Form  
8993, Part II, line 9b. However, the partner must only include the  
portion of the amounts on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2,  
line 9, columns (a) through (c), that are attributable to its gross  
DEI on Form 8993, Part I, line 4.  
Line 10. COGS. A partner must include the amounts reported  
to it on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2, line 10, on Form 8993,  
Part II, line 10b. However, the partner must only include the  
portion of the amount on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2,  
line 10, that is attributable to its gross DEI on Form 8993, Part I,  
line 4.  
Line 11. Allocable deductions. A partner must include the  
amounts reported to it on Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2,  
line 11, on Form 8993, Part II, line 13.  
respectively, and 50% of these amounts on the same section  
and lines of the Schedule K-3 that USP issues to DC, because  
this information is necessary for DC to compute its DEI. The net  
amount increases DC’s DEI, which increases its deemed  
intangible income (DII) and in turn increases its section 250  
deduction for FDII. DC uses these amounts to calculate its gross  
DEI on Form 8993, Part I, line 4.  
USP has $100 in gross receipts from services, $50 in cost of  
services, and $25 in properly allocated and apportioned  
deductions (none of which are interest or R&E expenses).  
Because the performance of these services results in DOGEI, it  
doesn't give rise to DEI, but rather 50% of the net amount ($25)  
is reported on Schedule K-3 Part IV, Section 1, line 6, so that DC  
can treat this amount as an exclusion from its DEI. DC’s DEI is  
determined without this amount by subtracting the amount from  
DEI on Form 8993, Part I, line 2e.  
USP owns two properties, Asset C which has an adjusted  
basis of $1,000, and Asset D which has an adjusted basis of  
$1,200. Asset C is used in the production of Product A and Asset  
D is used in providing the DOGEI services. Because sales of  
Product A give rise to DEI, 50% or $500 of the partnership’s  
adjusted basis in Asset C ($1,000) is reported to DC on  
Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 1, line 8. This increases DC’s  
QBAI, and thereby increases DC’s deemed tangible income  
return (DTIR). The increase to DTIR decreases DC’s DII which in  
turn decreases its section 250 deduction for FDII. DC uses the  
amount to determine its DTIR from partnerships on Form 8993,  
Part I, line 7b.  
Line 12. Other apportioned deductions. A partner must  
include the amounts reported to it on Schedule K-3, Part IV,  
Section 2, line 12, on Form 8993, Part II, line 17. However, the  
partner must only include the portion of the amount on  
Schedule K-3, Part IV, Section 2, line 12, that is attributable to its  
gross DEI on Form 8993, Part I, line 4.  
Section 3—Other Information for Preparation of  
Form 8993  
Interest Expense and Interest Expense  
Apportionment Factors  
This section reports the information that you need to allocate and  
apportion your interest expenses for FDII purposes.  
Lines 13A and 13B. Interest expense specifically allocable  
under Regulations sections 1.861-10(e) and -10T. Include these  
amounts on Form 8993, Part I, line 5, and/or Part II, line 14.  
Line 13C. Other interest expense. Add the interest expense  
to your other interest expense.  
Exception. Certain corporate partners with a less-than-10%  
interest in a partnership shall directly allocate their distributive  
shares of the partnership’s interest expense to its distributive  
share of partnership gross income; see Regulations section  
1.861-9(e)(4). After apportionment, if necessary, include the  
appropriate amount of interest expense on Form 8993, Part I,  
line 5, and/or Part II, line 14.  
Note. Some of the amounts reported on these lines related to  
distributions by foreign corporations may be attributable to PTEP  
in annual PTEP accounts that a partner has with respect to a  
foreign corporation and are therefore excludable from the  
partner’s gross income. See sections 959(a) and 959(d).  
Line 14. Interest expense apportionment factors. Corporate  
partners will use this section to determine the interest expense  
reported on Form 8993, Part I, line 5, and Part II, line 14.

Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
 
If the partnership received a distribution that is attributable to  
PTEP in an annual PTEP account of the partnership, or  
attributable to E&P that are excludable from the partnership’s  
gross income under section 1293(c), that is treated as a dividend  
for purposes of section 1411 (that is, for purposes of the net  
investment income tax (NIIT)) and, therefore, may be net  
investment income (NII) (such PTEP, NII PTEP), it'll attach a  
statement to Schedule K-3 regarding your share of the  
partnership’s NII PTEP. If you're an individual who is a U.S.  
citizen or resident, or a domestic trust or estate, use the U.S.  
dollar amounts of NII PTEP reported on the statement, and  
follow the Instructions for Form 8960 to figure and report your  
NII. Corporate partners aren't subject to the NIIT; see  
R&E Expenses and R&E Expenses Apportionment  
Factors  
This section reports the information that you need to allocate and  
apportion your R&E expense for FDII purposes. R&E expenses  
are allocated and apportioned by the partner. See Regulations  
section 1.861-17(f)(1).  
Line 15. Gross receipts by SIC code. Add the amounts to the  
partner's other gross receipts by SIC code.  
Line 16. R&E expenses by SIC code. Add the amounts to the  
partner's other R&E expenses by SIC code.  
Regulations sections 1.1411-1 through -10 for details. Note that  
your share of a distribution received by the partnership that is  
attributable to PTEP in your annual PTEP accounts, or  
attributable to E&P that are excludable from your gross income  
under section 1293(c), may also be treated as a dividend for  
purposes of section 1411 and, therefore, may be NII PTEP.  
Part V. Distributions From Foreign  
Corporations to Partnership  
Use Part V to determine your share of distributions by foreign  
corporations to the partnership (with your share being reported  
in this Part V) that are attributable to PTEP in your annual PTEP  
accounts with respect to the foreign corporations (which are  
excludable from your gross income) or non-previously taxed  
E&P, and the amount of foreign currency gain or loss on the  
PTEP that you're required to recognize under section 986(c).  
The amount of foreign currency gain or loss on the PTEP that  
you're required to recognize under section 986(c) is equal to the  
excess of the U.S. dollar amount of the PTEP over your U.S.  
dollar basis in the PTEP. If the distributed PTEP was maintained  
in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, the U.S. dollar  
amount of the distributed PTEP is determined by translating the  
distributed PTEP into U.S. dollars using the spot rate on the date  
that the PTEP was distributed; see section 989(b)(1). Your U.S.  
dollar basis in the distributed PTEP is generally equal to the U.S.  
dollar amount of E&P that you previously included in gross  
income; see sections 989(b)(1) and (3).  
Note. Columns (e) and (f) are reported in the foreign  
corporation’s functional currency.  
Part VI. Information on Partner’s  
Section 951(a)(1) and Section 951A  
Inclusions  
Use Part VI to include in gross income the appropriate amount of  
subpart F income inclusion and/or section 951(a)(1)(B)  
inclusion, and to complete Form 8992.  
If the partnership is a domestic partnership that is treated as  
owning stock of a foreign corporation for a tax year of the foreign  
corporation within the meaning of section 958(a) because  
Regulations section 1.958-1(d)(1) doesn't apply to such tax year  
and the domestic partnership doesn't, pursuant to Regulations  
section 1.958-1(d)(4)(i), apply Regulations sections 1.958-1(d)  
(1) through (3) to such tax year, and the partnership is a U.S.  
shareholder of the foreign corporation, then any subpart F  
income inclusions and section 951(a)(1)(B) inclusions with  
respect to the foreign corporation for such tax year are inclusions  
of the partnership, of which you generally include in gross  
income a distributive share. In such a case, your share of the  
partnership’s subpart F income inclusions and section 951(a)(1)  
(B) inclusions is reported on Schedule K-1 (Form 1065), line 11,  
and aren't reported in Schedule K-3, Part VI, columns (e) and (f).  
For each CFC listed in column (a) of which you're a U.S.  
shareholder, include the amounts of subpart F income and  
section 951(a)(1)(B) inclusion reported on Part VI in determining  
the amount you report on Form 1120, Schedule C, line 16; or  
Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 8.  
Note that, for corporate partners, in determining the amount  
you report on Form 1120, Schedule C, line 16, the section 951(a)  
(1)(B) inclusion amounts reported on Part VI may be reduced  
under Regulations section 1.956-1(a)(2).  
Also use Part V, in combination with other information known  
to you, to claim and figure a foreign tax credit on Form 1116 or  
1118, and, if eligible, to claim and figure a dividends received  
deduction under section 245A on Form 1120 with respect to  
distributions that are attributable to non-previously taxed E&P.  
Include the U.S. dollar amount of E&P distributions from  
qualified foreign corporations in determining the amount of  
qualified dividends you report on Form 1040, line 3a, or the  
amount of dividends reported on Form 1120. A foreign  
corporation identified as a qualified foreign corporation in column  
(j) that is a PFIC (as defined in section 1297) as to you for the tax  
year of the foreign corporation in which the distribution was  
made, or the preceding tax year, isn't a qualified foreign  
corporation, regardless of whether it's indicated as such in  
column (j). See section 1(h)(11)(C)(iii)(I) and Notice 2004-70,  
2004-44 I.R.B. 724.  
Include the U.S. dollar amount of E&P distributions from a  
nonqualified foreign corporation in determining the amount of  
ordinary dividends you report on Form 1040, line 3b; or Form  
1120.  
For each CFC listed in column (a) of which you're a U.S.  
shareholder, report the tested income and tested loss for each  
CFC in Schedule A (Form 8992), columns (c) and (d),  
respectively, and include your share of each CFC's items  
described in Schedule K-3, Part VI, columns (i) through (n), in  
determining the amount to report in Schedule A (Form 8992),  
columns (e) through (j), respectively.  
However, don't include the U.S. dollar amount of E&P  
distributions from a foreign corporation to the extent the  
distributions are attributable to PTEP in annual PTEP accounts  
that you have with respect to the foreign corporation, or  
attributable to E&P that are excludable from your gross income  
under section 1293(c), in determining the amount of dividends  
that you report on Form 1040, line 3a or 3b; or Form 1120. See  
Notice 2019-01, 2019-02 I.R.B. 275.  
Part VII. Information Regarding  
Passive Foreign Investment  
Companies (PFICs)  
Include the amount of foreign currency gain or loss that you're  
required to recognize under section 986(c) in determining the  
amount to report on Form 1120; or Schedule 1 (Form 1040),  
line 8.  
U.S. persons may be required to complete and file Form 8621  
and/or include amounts in income with respect to PFICs owned  
12  
Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
     
through a partnership. This includes PFICs with respect to which  
no qualified electing fund (QEF) or section 1296 MTM election  
has been made and unpedigreed QEFs (section 1291 funds), as  
well as PFICs with respect to which a pedigreed QEF, section  
1296 MTM, or other election has been, or may be, made. For  
information regarding the requirement to file Form 8621, as well  
as certain filing exceptions, see Regulations section 1.1298-1  
and the Form 8621 instructions.  
Use the information provided in this Schedule K-3, Part VII,  
(including any supplemental attachments (Table 4 or 5, from the  
Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and K-3, if  
applicable)), as instructed below, to complete Form 8621 with  
respect to each PFIC for which you have a filing obligation.  
Additionally, for any PFIC that you own through your interest in  
the partnership, use the information provided in this  
respect to a PFIC for which the partnership doesn't file Form  
8621, if the partnership owns stock of an unpedigreed QEF, or if  
the partnership is making a section 1296 MTM election with  
respect to stock in a PFIC in the current tax year if the current tax  
year isn't the first year of the partnership’s holding period in the  
stock (non-initial section 1296 MTM election), it's required to  
complete Schedule K-3, Part VII, with that PFIC’s information,  
and you may be required to file Form 8621 with respect to that  
PFIC. See Regulations section 1.1298-1(b)(2) and the Form  
8621 instructions for additional information.  
Additionally, if the partnership marks to market stock of a  
PFIC as described in Regulations section 1.1291-1(c)(4), the  
partnership generally doesn't need to report information about  
the PFIC on Schedules K-2 and K-3, Part VII. In such a case, the  
partnership should report its MTM gain or loss on Schedule K  
and report your share of those amounts on Schedule K-1, Part  
III. Note, however, in such a case there may be instances in  
which you will need additional information from the partnership  
to meet your tax obligations with respect to a PFIC for which the  
partnership has marked to market the stock as described in  
Regulations section 1.1291-1(c)(4), such as when section 1291  
rules apply to you because the stock was not marked by the  
partnership in the first year of its holding period. In such  
instances, the partnership should provide you with the needed  
information and may use Schedule K-3, Part VII, to do so.  
Schedule K-3, Part VII, (including any supplemental attachments  
(Table 4 or 5, from the Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2  
and K-3, if applicable)) to determine your income inclusion with  
respect to the PFIC (if any) and complete your U.S. federal  
income tax return.  
If a PFIC reported on this Schedule K-3 also constitutes a  
CFC within the meaning of section 957 (PFIC/CFC) and you're a  
U.S. shareholder (within the meaning of section 951(b)) with  
respect to that PFIC/CFC, the information on this schedule with  
respect to that PFIC/CFC may not be relevant to you. The box in  
Section 1, column (m), will be checked if the PFIC also  
constitutes a CFC. See section 1297(d) for additional  
information.  
Columns (k) through (n). Use the information provided in  
these columns to make certain elections with respect to a PFIC  
on Form 8621, Part II. If you don't intend to make any election  
with respect to a PFIC reported on this Schedule K-3, Part VII,  
you may generally ignore these boxes for that PFIC.  
Section 1—General Information  
Columns (a) through (e). If you're required to complete Form  
8621 with respect to a PFIC reported on this schedule, use this  
information to complete the Form 8621 background information.  
Note. If you're making an election under Regulations section  
1.1291-9, 1.1297-3, or 1.1298-3 with respect to a PFIC/CFC, or  
a PFIC that is a former PFIC within the meaning of Regulations  
section 1.1291-9(j)(2)(iv), you may need additional information  
from the partnership that isn't reported on this Schedule K-3,  
Part VII, including information regarding the PFIC’s E&P.  
Columns (f) through (i). If you're required to complete Form  
8621 with respect to a PFIC reported on this schedule, enter this  
information on Form 8621, Part I, lines 1 through 4.  
Section 2—Additional Information on PFIC or  
Qualified Electing Fund (QEF)  
Note. If you're making an election under Regulations section  
1.1291-10, 1.1297-3, or 1.1298-3 with respect to a PFIC  
reported on this Schedule K-3, Part VII, you may need additional  
information from the partnership regarding the value of the PFIC  
shares reported in column (i) that isn't reported here.  
Note. The partnership will complete Section 2 with respect to  
each PFIC reported on Section 1, and each line completed for a  
PFIC on Section 1 corresponds to the same line on Section 2. If  
the PFIC has no current year activity, or has no other information  
for the partnership to report in columns (c) through (o), the  
partnership will only include the name and employer  
identification number (EIN) of the PFIC in columns (a) and (b)  
and will leave columns (c) through (o) blank with respect to that  
PFIC.  
Column (j). If the partnership is a domestic partnership, this  
column will indicate to you (using the codes below) whether the  
partnership has made an election with respect to the PFIC which  
binds the partners. If the partnership is a foreign partnership, no  
code will be entered in this column; however, if certain  
information with respect to the PFIC is provided, you may be  
able to make certain elections with respect to the PFIC on Form  
8621.

6a and 7a, respectively, and include these amounts in gross  
income on your U.S. federal income tax return unless you're  
making an election under section 1294 with respect to the QEF  
for the current tax year. If you're making a section 1294 election  
with respect to the QEF for the current tax year, use the rest of  
Form 8621, Part III, lines 8 and 9, to determine the amount of  
deferred tax with respect to the QEF for the current tax year.  
Note. In general, if the partnership is a domestic partnership  
and has made a pedigreed QEF or section 1296 MTM election  
with respect to a PFIC, the partnership isn't required to complete  
Schedule K-3, Part VII, with respect to that PFIC if the  
partnership files Form 8621 for that PFIC. In that case, you may  
not be required to file Form 8621 with respect to that PFIC and  
income inclusions with respect to the PFIC, if any, will be figured  
by the partnership and reported to you on Schedule K-1, Part III.  
However, if the partnership is a domestic partnership that has  
made a pedigreed QEF or section 1296 MTM election with  
Note. If your interest in the partnership constitutes an applicable  
partnership interest within the meaning of section 1061(c) or the  
13  
Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
regulations thereunder, you may need additional information not  
reported on this Schedule K-3 from the QEF with respect to its  
computation of its net capital gain (as defined in Regulations  
section 1.1293-1(a)(2)) to perform certain computations under  
section 1061 or the regulations thereunder. The partnership may  
aid you in obtaining the information from the QEF, though the  
QEF isn't required to provide it. See section 1061 and  
Regulations sections 1.1061-4 and 1.1061-6 for more  
information.  
Section 1291 and Other Information  
Generally, this information is to assist you in satisfying any  
information reporting obligations for, and in figuring income  
inclusions with respect to, section 1291 funds. However, except  
as otherwise provided, this information may be relevant to PFICs  
with respect to which a pedigreed QEF election, section 1296  
MTM election (including a non-initial section 1296 MTM  
election), or other election has been made by you or the  
partnership.  
Section 1296 Mark-to-Market Information  
Column (g). This information is provided to help you assess  
your holding period in the PFIC stock through your ownership in  
the partnership. Unless also provided in Section 1, column (g),  
with respect to an acquisition of stock in the PFIC during the  
partnership's tax year, these dates don't need to be entered on  
Form 8621 or on your U.S. federal income tax return.  
Columns (e) and (f). This information is to assist you in  
determining your gain or loss from certain PFICs with respect to  
which an MTM election under section 1296 has been, or may be,  
made (MTM PFIC), including PFICs with respect to which the  
partnership is making a non-initial section 1296 MTM election.  
For any PFIC reported on Schedule K-3, Part VII, enter the  
amount from Schedule K-3, Part VII, Section 2, column (f), on  
Form 8621, Part IV, line 10a. You may use the information in  
Schedule K-3, Part VII, Section 2, column (e), to assist you in  
determining your adjusted tax basis in the MTM PFIC in which  
you're a shareholder through your ownership in the partnership.  
Your adjusted tax basis in the MTM PFIC stock may be equal to  
the fair market value (FMV) of the stock at the beginning of the  
prior tax year reported in column (e). However, your adjusted tax  
basis may not be equal to the FMV of the MTM PFIC stock  
depending on the amounts of prior year income inclusions and  
the amounts for which you were allowed a deduction with  
respect to the MTM PFIC; see sections 1296(a)(2) and 1296(d)  
for additional information. Once you have determined your  
adjusted tax basis in the MTM PFIC stock, enter that amount on  
Form 8621, Part IV, line 10b, and use the rest of Form 8621, Part  
IV, lines 10c through 12, to determine your MTM gain or loss to  
include on your U.S. federal income tax return.  
Note. The dates entered in this column (g) will be the dates on  
which the partnership acquired the PFIC stock. If you acquired  
your partnership interest after the date listed with respect to a  
PFIC, you may have a different holding period with respect to the  
PFIC stock.  
Column (h). Your share of the amount of cash and FMV of  
property distributed by the PFIC during the tax year may be

information from the partnership regarding your share of its  
adjusted tax basis in the MTM PFIC stock to complete the rest of  
Form 8621, Part IV. Your share of the partnership’s adjusted tax  
basis in the MTM PFIC stock may be equal to your share of the  
FMV of the stock at the beginning of the prior tax year reported  
in column (e). However, your share of the partnership’s adjusted  
tax basis in the MTM PFIC stock may not be equal to the FMV of  
the stock at the beginning of the prior tax year, depending on the  
amounts of the partnership’s prior year income inclusions and  
the amounts for which the partnership was allowed a deduction  
with respect to the MTM PFIC. Once you determine your share  
of the partnership’s adjusted tax basis in the MTM PFIC shares,  
enter this amount on Form 8621, Part IV, line 10b, and use the

under section 1294 and are deemed to have received a  
distribution from the QEF, this information is required to complete  
Form 8621, Parts III and VI. See section 1294(f) and Regulations  
section 1.1294-1T for additional information.  
Additionally, if the partnership is making a non-initial section  
1296 MTM election with respect to a PFIC, you should use the  
information for that PFIC from Schedule K-3, Part VII, Section 2,  
columns (g) through (o), and the corresponding instructions  
described below to determine whether you have received an  
excess distribution with respect to the PFIC stock, or whether  
your distributive share of the partnership’s section 1296(a) gain  
for the tax year (if any) is treated as an excess distribution. This  
will help you determine any corresponding additions to tax and  
interest charges under section 1291. For special rules related to  
RICs that are shareholders of PFICs with respect to which a  
non-initial section 1296 MTM election has been made, see  
Regulations section 1.1296-1(i)(3).  
Note. If you have made a section 1294 election with respect to a  
QEF owned by the partnership, a distribution of earnings by the  
QEF will terminate the section 1294 election to the extent the  
election is attributable to the earnings distributed. In such a case,  
enter the amount of the distribution on Form 8621, Part VI,  
line 22. See Regulations section 1.1294-1T(e) and the Form  
8621, Part VI, instructions for additional information.  
Column (i). This information is to help you assess any

and 13b, respectively. Complete the rest of Form 8621, Part IV,  
lines 13 and 14, to determine your MTM gain or loss to include  
on your U.S. federal income tax return. Your basis in the MTM  
PFIC shares as reported by the partnership should reflect  
adjustments made by the partnership with respect to the MTM  
PFIC, as well as any other partner-specific adjustments such as  
section 743(b) adjustments; you may also need to make  
corresponding adjustments to your basis in your partnership  
interest. See section 1296(b)(2) for additional information on  
adjustments to basis in MTM PFIC shares held by foreign  
partnerships with respect to section 1296 income inclusions and  
deductions.  
For each QEF in which you're a shareholder through your  
ownership in the partnership with respect to which you have  
previously made a section 1294 election, and for which you're  
required to file Form 8621, if amounts are reported in  
Schedule K-3, Part VII, Section 2, columns (m) through (o), with  
respect to the QEF, the disposition may have partially or  
completely terminated your election, and you may need to  
complete Form 8621, Part VI, lines 22 through 24. See  
Regulations section 1.1294-1T and the Form 8621 instructions  
for additional information.  
Column (j). This information is to help you assess any available  
foreign tax credit attributable to an excess distribution from a  
section 1291 fund or PFIC with respect to which the partnership  
is making a non-initial section 1296 MTM election in which you're  
a shareholder through your ownership in the partnership. If  
you're required to file Form 8621 with respect to one of these  
types of PFICs owned by the partnership, use this amount to  
determine your foreign tax credit to include on Form 8621, Part V,  
line 16d. See section 1291(g) for additional information on  
creditable foreign taxes.  
Note. Your share of foreign taxes in column (j) includes only  
foreign taxes within the meaning of section 1291(g) and doesn't  
include taxes attributable to QEF inclusions under section 1293.  
If you're a corporate shareholder of a QEF that meets the  
ownership requirements of section 1293(f)(3), use Part VIII to  
determine your deemed paid foreign tax credit under section  
960, including with respect to inclusions under section 1293(f).  
Column (k). This information is to help you assess your excess  
distribution and resulting other income, additional tax, and  
interest charge with respect to each section 1291 fund in which  
you're a shareholder through your ownership in the partnership  
or for a PFIC with respect to which the partnership is making a  
non-initial section 1296 MTM election. If you're required to file  
Form 8621 with respect to one of these types of PFICs owned by  
the partnership, use this amount to determine the amount to  
include on Form 8621, Part V, line 15b, and use the rest of Form  
8621, Part V, lines 15 and 16, to determine the amount of any  
excess distribution and resulting other income, additional tax,  
and interest charge to include on your U.S. federal income tax  
return with respect to the section 1291 fund.  
Note. If you have made a QEF election with respect to a PFIC  
which you own indirectly through the partnership, you may be  
required to adjust your share of the tax basis in the PFIC shares  
as reported by the partnership, and thus your gain or loss  
reported in column (o), by cumulative QEF inclusions and  
distributions made by the QEF; your basis in your partnership  
interest may need to be similarly adjusted. See section 1293(d)  
for more information on basis adjustments with respect to QEFs.  
Part VIII. Partner’s Interest in Foreign  
Corporation Income (Section 960)  
Note. The information in column (k) is only relevant with respect  
to section 1291 funds and PFICs with respect to which the  
partnership is making a non-initial section 1296 MTM election  
and isn't relevant for any PFIC with respect to which a pedigreed  
QEF election or other section 1296 MTM election has been, or  
may be, made.  
Note. Amounts on this part are reported in foreign currency.  
In general, for purposes of the foreign tax credit, a domestic  
corporate U.S. shareholder of a CFC is deemed to pay all or a  
portion of the foreign income taxes paid or accrued by the CFC  
that are properly attributable to subpart F income or tested  
income of the CFC that the U.S. shareholder includes in gross  
income; see sections 960(a) and (d). See also section 1293(f)  
with respect to QEF inclusions from a PFIC. The domestic  
corporate U.S. shareholder may claim a credit for such foreign  
taxes, subject to certain limitations. Individuals, estates, and  
trusts may also claim a foreign tax credit for foreign income taxes  
deemed paid with respect to a CFC. However, they must make  
an election under section 962.  
Column (l). This information is provided to help you assess the  
treatment to you on any disposition by the partnership of stock in  
a PFIC in combination with column (g). These dates don't need  
to be entered on Form 8621.  
Note. Your holding period of the PFIC stock may have begun on  
a different date than the partnership's holding period.  
Columns (m) through (o). This information is to assist you in  
figuring any gain or loss on the partnership's disposition of PFIC  
stock.  
To calculate the foreign taxes deemed paid by a partner that  
is a corporate U.S. shareholder of a CFC held by a partnership,  
the income, deductions, and taxes of the CFC must be assigned  
to separate categories of income and then to income groups in  
those separate categories; see Regulations section 1.960-1(c)  
(1). This is completed on Schedule Q (Form 5471), CFC Income  
by CFC Income Groups. The income groups include the subpart  
F income group, the tested income group, and the residual  
income group. Each single item of foreign base company income  
as defined in Regulations section 1.954-1(c)(1)(iii) is a separate  
subpart F income group; see Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(2)  
(ii)(B). The tested income group consists of tested income within  
a section 904 category; see Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)  
(C). The residual income group consists of any income not in the  
other income groups or in a PTEP group; see Regulations  
section 1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)(D). See Regulations section 1.960-3(c)  
(3) with respect to the PTEP groups. The PTEP groups aren't  
reported on this Schedule K-3, Part VIII.  
For each section 1291 fund in which you're a shareholder  
through your ownership in the partnership or for any PFIC with  
respect to which the partnership is making a non-initial section  
1296 MTM election for which you're required to file Form 8621,  
enter the amount from Schedule K-3, Part VII, Section 2, column  
(o), on Form 8621, Part V, line 15f, and use the rest of Form  
8621, Part V, line 16, to determine the amount of any resulting  
other income, additional tax, and interest charge to include on  
your U.S. federal income tax return with respect to the PFIC. Your  
adjusted tax basis in the PFIC shares as reported by the  
partnership should reflect any adjustments in the partnership’s  
shares in the PFIC that are specific to you; you may also need to  
make corresponding adjustments to your basis in your  
partnership interest.  
For each MTM PFIC (including a PFIC with respect to which a  
domestic partnership is making a non-initial section 1296 MTM  
election) in which you're a shareholder through your ownership in  
the partnership, and with respect to which you're required to file  
Form 8621, enter the amounts from Schedule K-3, Part VII,  
Section 2, columns (m) and (n), on Form 8621, Part IV, lines 13a  
A partner claiming a deemed paid credit with respect to an  
inclusion under section 951 will use Schedule K-3, Part VIII, to  
complete Form 1118, Schedule C; see section 960(a). The  
15  
Instructions for Sch. K-3 (Form 1065) (2023)  
 
partner will use column (ii) (the share of net income in each  
subpart F income group of the CFC) to report in Form 1118,  
Schedule C, column 8(a). The partner will use column (iii) (the  
total net income in the subpart F income groups of the CFC) to  
report in Form 1118, Schedule C, column 6. The partner will use  
column (iv) (the total current year taxes by subpart F income  
groups of the CFC) to report in Form 1118, Schedule C, column  
7. The partner must also complete Form 1118, Schedule C,  
column 5, with information from Schedule K-3, Part VIII.  
960(d). The partner will use column (ii) (the partner's share of the  
foreign corporation's net income by tested income group) to  
report in Form 1118, Schedule D, column 5. The partner will use  
column (iii) (the foreign corporation's total net income by tested  
income group) to report in Form 1118, Schedule D, column 6.  
The partner will use column (iv) (the foreign corporation's current  
year tested foreign taxes for which credit is allowed by tested  
income groups) to report in Form 1118, Schedule D, column 8.  
Example 7—use Schedule K-3 to claim deemed paid  
credit. In Year 1, USP, a domestic partnership, has two  
domestic corporate partners with equal interests in the  
partnership. USP wholly owns CFC. CFC earns passive category  
interest income of 100u sourced from Country X and pays a  
withholding tax of $20 to a foreign country. The code for Country  
X is X. USP reports the following to each of its partners on  
Schedule K-3, Part VIII.  
Note. The amount entered in Form 1118, Schedule C, column  
8(a), won't equal the share of the net income in the subpart F  
income group if there is a qualified deficit. See Regulations  
section 1.960-2(b)(3)(ii).  
Similarly, a partner claiming a deemed paid credit with  
respect to an inclusion under section 951A will report  
Schedule K-3, Part VIII, on Form 1118, Schedule D; see section

59A)  
Section 1—Applicable Taxpayer  
Lines 1 Through 4  
If you're a corporate partner of a partnership, use this part from  
the partnership to determine your BEAT liability, if any. The BEAT  
is generally levied on certain large corporations that have  
deductions and certain other similar items paid or accrued to  
foreign related parties that are 3% of their total deductions or  
higher (2% in the case of certain banks or registered securities  
dealers), a determination referred to as the "base erosion  
percentage test." Corporate partners that are applicable  
taxpayers under Regulations section 1.59A-2 may be subject to  
the BEAT. See Regulations section 1.59A-7 for further  
The amounts shown on lines 1 through 4 reflect the partner's  
distributive share of gross receipts from the partnership's  
business or rental activities. The partner should use the  
information from lines 2 through 4 to complete Form 8991, Part I,  
line 1b.

qualified derivative payment is any payment made by the  
taxpayer pursuant to a derivative contract, provided that the  
taxpayer recognizes gain or loss on the derivative contract as if it  
were sold for its FMV on the last business day of the tax year;  
treats the gain or loss as ordinary; and treats the character of all  
other items of income, deduction, gain, or loss with respect to a  
payment pursuant to the derivative as ordinary. A payment isn't a  
qualified derivative payment if the payment would be treated as a  
base erosion payment if it were not made pursuant to a

Section 1—Gross Income  
The partnership uses Part X to report your distributive share of  
income that is subject to tax in the United States. Keep it for your  
records. You must report items of income from your Part X on  
your tax return and accompanying schedules. Each line in this  
section of the schedule corresponds to a line on the existing  
Form 1065, Schedule K, lines 1 through 11. For a more detailed  
description of the types of income listed on each line, see  
Income (Loss) under Part III in the Partner's Instructions for

Section 2—Deductions, Losses, and Net Income  
Section 3—Allocation and Apportionment  
Methods for Deductions  
In figuring a foreign corporation's or nonresident alien's ECI,  
deductions are allowed only if they are allocated and  
Section 3 provides information you may use to apportion  
deductions to ECI or non-ECI. See Regulations sections 1.861-8  
through 1.861-20 and Temporary Regulations sections 1.861-8T  
through -9T. The ratios listed below generally correspond to the  
ratios on Schedule H (Form 1120-F), Part III.  
apportioned to income effectively connected with a U.S. trade or  
business; see sections 861(b), 873, and 882(c). To determine  
ECI, a foreign corporation and nonresident alien individual must  
allocate and apportion deductions and losses to gross income in  
the ECI statutory grouping and to gross income in the non-ECI  
residual grouping; see Regulations section 1.861-8(f)(1)(iv). For  
additional guidance for foreign corporations, see Schedule H  
(Form 1120-F), Deductions Allocated to Effectively Connected  
Income Under Regulations Section 1.861-8, and Schedule I  
(Form 1120-F), Interest Expense Allocation Under Regulations  
Section 1.882-5. For additional guidance for nonresident aliens,  
see the Instructions for Form 1040-NR. Section 2 also generally  
corresponds to the deductions separately reported on Form  
1065, Schedule K.  
Add the foreign corporation's share of partnership expenses  
to the foreign corporation's expenses and enter those expenses  
on Schedule H (Form 1120-F). The following instructions provide  
specific instructions for reporting expenses on Form 1120-F. See  
the Instructions for Form 1040-NR to determine the appropriate  
placement of the nonresident alien partner's share of the  
partnership's expenses.

Section 4—Reserved for Future Use  
Part XI. Section 871(m) Covered  
Partnerships  
If you're a U.S. or foreign person that has entered into a section  
871(m) transaction that references units in the partnership, use  
this part to determine your U.S. withholding tax and reporting  
obligations with respect to those transactions under section  
871(m) and related sections, including for purposes of  
To determine the amount of gain or loss described in section  
864(c)(8), generally, a foreign transferor must first determine its  
gain or loss on the transfer of a partnership interest (outside gain  
and outside loss). For this purpose, outside gain or loss is  
determined under all relevant provisions of the Code and the  
regulations thereunder. A foreign transferor may recognize  
capital gain or loss (outside capital gain or outside capital loss)  
and ordinary gain or loss (outside ordinary gain or outside  
ordinary loss) on the transfer of its partnership interest and must  
separately apply section 864(c)(8) with respect to its capital gain  
or loss and its ordinary gain or loss. Part XIII, line 1, provides the  
information for the partner to determine its outside ordinary gain  
or outside ordinary loss. The partner then applies Regulations  
section 1.751-1(a)(2) to determine its outside capital gain or  
loss.  
determining the amounts to report on Forms 1042 and 1042-S.  
This part will be provided if the partnership is a PTP that (a) is  
a covered partnership as defined in Regulations section  
1.871-15(m)(1), or (b) directly or indirectly holds an interest in a  
lower-tier partnership that is a covered partnership. The  
information in this part is to permit you to determine your U.S.  
withholding tax and reporting obligations under section 871(m)  
and related rules if you're a U.S. or foreign person that has  
entered into a section 871(m) transaction that references units in  
the partnership, including for purposes of determining the  
amounts to report on Forms 1042 and 1042-S.  
If you have entered into a potential section 871(m) transaction  
with another person that references units in the partnership, you  
may need this information to determine your obligations under  
section 871(m) and related rules. Generally, a potential section  
871(m) transaction is a securities lending or sale-repurchase  
transaction, a notional principal contract, or any other specified  
financial transaction that references one or more underlying  
securities, and an underlying security is any interest in an entity  
that could give rise to a U.S. source dividend. See Regulations  
section 1.871-15 for additional information, including the  
definitions of underlying securities and potential section 871(m)  
transactions.  
Line instructions. The foreign transferor must compare the  
outside gain or loss amounts with the relevant aggregate  
deemed sale effectively connected gain or loss provided on Part  
XIII, lines 2 and 3. The foreign transferor only includes in income  
the lower of the outside amount and the deemed sale effectively  
connected amount. This determination is made separately with  
respect to capital gain or loss and ordinary gain or loss. For  
example, a foreign transferor would compare its outside ordinary  
gain to its aggregate deemed sale effectively connected ordinary  
gain, treating the former as effectively connected gain only to the  
extent it doesn't exceed the latter. Similarly, the foreign transfer  
would compare its outside capital gain to its aggregate deemed  
sale effectively connected capital gain, treating the former as  
effectively connected gain only to the extent it doesn't exceed  
the latter.  
Part XII. Reserved for Future Use  
Amounts entered on lines 4 and 5 are subsets of the amount  
entered on line 3 and don't apply to a foreign transferor that is a  
corporation.

8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets, as

In general. Section 864(c)(8) requires a foreign partner that  
directly or indirectly transfers part or all of an interest in a  
partnership engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the  
United States to include in income the effectively connected gain  
or loss from the transfer. A partnership distribution is considered  
a transfer when it results in recognition of gain or loss. See  
Regulations section 1.731-1(a).  
If this is an installment sale, see Form 6252.  
If an amount is only entered on line 7, use it to determine gain  
or loss from the transfer of the partnership interest when  
completing Form 8949.  
Line 8 should be blank. A partnership that has the type of  
gain described on line 8 will be engaged in a U.S. trade or  
business and should have reported this gain on line 5.  
Information regarding the transfer of an interest in a  
partnership engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the  
United States must be provided to the partnership no later than
