The basics: 🎯 No more double taxation: the tax withheld in the U.S. can now be credited in Chile. 🎯 The FDII incentive remains, providing a tax deduction to U.S. companies that export services. If you export technology, digital content, or advisory from an LLC or C-Corp, you may qualify. 🎯 GILTI remains in effect: but it only affects U.S. corporations with active foreign investments, not individuals with direct financial investments. 🎯 Capital gains on stocks may be exempt in the U.S. if there is no “U.S. trade or business” and the structure is set up properly. Do you have funds in the U.S.? The real question is not whether to invest — but how you are structured. How are you handling it?
