ESTATE TAX
ESTATE TAX CREDIT
To avoid double taxation, the estate tax paid related to estate located in foreign countries by a Filipino citizen or resident alien decedent is allowed to be credited against the total Philippine estate tax due.
Tax credit is not allowed to nonresident aliens because
they are taxed only on properties situated within.
The amount of estate taxes paid to a foreign country
could be claimed as credit against the Philippine estate tax subject to limit, if such taxes pertain to properties which are included in the gross estate for Philippine estate tax computation. ( Sec. 86(E) NIRC LIMIT ON FOREIGN ESTATE TAX CREDIT 1. One foreign country estate tax credit limit:
= net estate in foreign country X Philippine estate tax
World net estate
Or
= the actual estate tax paid to foreign country, whichever is
lower.
2. Several foreign countries estate tax credit limit:
= total foreign net estate X Philippine Estate tax due
world net estate ESTATE OF NONRESIDENT ALIEN For estate tax computation, only the properties of a nonresident decedent situated in the Philippines are subject to Philippine estate tax. (Sec. 85 NIRC).The deduction allowed shall be applied proportionately in relation to Philippine gross estate. ( Sec. 86(B) NIRC)
The determination of the gross estate of a
nonresident alien will depend whether there is reciprocity or not. If there is reciprocity, intangible assets are excluded for estate tax purposes. ( Sec 104 NIRC) There is reciprocity at the time of the death (or donation) of a nonresident alien when his foreign country does not impose a transfer tax of any character, in respect to intangible property situated therein of Filipino citizens not residing in that foreign country ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS
