Form 5472 (foreign owned US disregarded entities)
Is there an obligation for the tax-free model of the LLC in the USA to submit Form 5472?
The submission of Form 5472 is obligatory if you make transactions from the LLC bank account to a so-called ‘related party’. A ‘related party’ refers to persons who are closely related to the owners of the LLC such as parents, siblings or grandchildren, as well as entities in which members of the LLC have a majority stake.
Additionally, the submission is absolutely mandatory, should a member make a capital contribution to the LLC or pay costs of the LLC ‘privately’.
If such transactions or payments are not made it is generally not necessary to submit Form 5472.
We are of course at your disposal should you have further questions related to this subject.
