持有海外公司？別忽視這張表格：Form 5471
如果您是美國公民、綠卡持有人或稅務居民，且在美國境外持有外國公司股份（通常持股達 10% 以上），每年報稅時可能都需要向IRS提交Form 5471。
很多跨國創業者常誤以為海外公司沒在美國營運、沒分紅就不用報。實際上，Form 5471屬於資訊揭露表，重點在於申報海外持股架構與財務狀況，而非僅看有無稅負。漏報或遲報的罰款高達10,000美元，甚至會導致當年度整份稅表的查稅追訴期無限期延長。
美國註冊會計師羅霞提醒您專業合格的CPA可以幫助您把關合規細節，確保稅務合規並爭取最大權益。

Own an Overseas Company? Don't Overlook Form 5471
If you are a U.S. citizen, Green Card holder, or tax resident owning 10% or more of a foreign corporation, you likely must file IRS Form 5471 with your annual tax return.
A common misconception among cross-border founders: "My offshore entity doesn't generate U.S. income or distribute dividends, so I don't need to file." In reality, Form 5471 is an informational return designed to disclose foreign corporate structures and financials—not just tax liabilities. Failure to file or late submission triggers an automatic penalty starting at $10,000 per form, and leaves your entire tax return open to IRS audit indefinitely.
