Annual Information Return of Foreign Trust
With a U.S. Owner

otherwise noted.

Time To File Certain Business Income Tax, Information,
and Other Returns.

Who Must Sign

What’s New

Form 3520-A is the annual information return of a foreign
trust with at least one U.S. owner. The form provides
information about the foreign trust, its U.S. beneficiaries,
and any U.S. person who is treated as an owner of any
portion of the foreign trust.

If the return is filed by:
• An individual or fiduciary, it must be signed and dated
by that individual or fiduciary.
• A partnership, it must be signed and dated by a
general partner or limited liability company member.
• A corporation, it must be signed and dated by the
president, vice president, treasurer, assistant treasurer,
chief accounting officer, or any other corporate officer
(such as a tax officer) authorized to sign.
The paid preparer must complete the required
preparer information and:
• Sign the return in the space provided for the preparer’s
signature.
• Give a copy of the return to the filer.

Who Must File

Penalties

A foreign trust with a U.S. owner must file Form 3520-A
in order for the U.S. owner to satisfy its annual
information reporting requirements under section
6048(b). Each U.S. person treated as an owner of any
portion of a foreign trust under sections 671 through 679
is responsible for ensuring that the foreign trust files
Form 3520-A and furnishes the required annual
statements to its U.S. owners and U.S. beneficiaries.
Exception. Canadian registered retirement savings
plans (RRSPs) and Canadian registered retirement
income funds (RRIFs) are not required to file Form
3520-A with respect to a U.S. citizen or resident alien
interest holder who is eligible to file Form 8891, U.S.
Information Return for Beneficiaries of Certain Canadian
Registered Retirement Plans, with respect to the RRSP
or RRIF. In addition, other eligible Canadian plans within
the meaning of section 3 of Rev. Proc. 2002-23, 2002-15
I.R.B. 744, are relieved of any obligation to file Form
3520-A with respect to a U.S. citizen or resident alien
beneficiary who has made an election in accordance with
section 4 of Rev. Proc. 2002-23 and has complied with
the annual reporting requirements of Rev. Proc. 2002-23.

The U.S. owner is subject to a penalty equal to 5% of the
gross value of the portion of the trust’s assets treated as
owned by the U.S. person at the close of that year if the
foreign trust:
(a) fails to file a timely Form 3520-A or (b) does not
furnish all of the information required by section 6048(b)
or includes incorrect information. See section 6677(b).
Additional penalties may be imposed if noncompliance
continues after the IRS mails a notice of failure to comply
with required reporting. See section 6677(a).
Criminal penalties may be imposed under sections
7203, 7206, and 7207 for failure to file on time and for
filing a false or fraudulent return.
Reasonable cause. No penalties will be imposed if the
taxpayer can demonstrate that the failure to comply was
due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect.
Note. The fact that a foreign country would impose
penalties for disclosing the required information is not
reasonable cause. Similarly, reluctance on the part of a
foreign fiduciary or provisions in the trust instrument that
prevent the disclosure of required information is not
reasonable cause.

When and Where To File

Definitions

New filing address. The IRS has changed the filing
address for Form 3520-A. See When and Where To File
below.

General Instructions
Purpose of Form

File a complete Form 3520-A (including pages 3 and 4)
with the Internal Revenue Service Center, P. O. Box
409101, Ogden, UT 84409, by the 15th day of the 3rd
month after the end of the trust’s tax year. Give copies of
the Foreign Grantor Trust Owner Statement (page 3)
and the Foreign Grantor Trust Beneficiary Statement
(page 4) to the U.S. owners and U.S. beneficiaries by the
15th day of the 3rd month after the end of the trust’s tax
year.
An extension of time to file Form 3520-A (including
the statements) may be granted. For details, see Form
7004, Application for Automatic 6-Month Extension of

Distribution
A distribution is any gratuitous transfer of money or other
property from a trust, whether or not the trust is treated
as owned by another person under the grantor trust
rules, and without regard to whether the recipient is
designated as a beneficiary by the terms of the trust. A
distribution includes the receipt of trust corpus and the
receipt of a gift or bequest described in section 663(a).
A distribution also includes constructive transfers from
a trust. For example, if charges you make on a credit
card are paid by a foreign trust or guaranteed or secured

Cat. No. 25096U

Page 2 of 5

Instructions for Form 3520-A

9:54 - 8-SEP-2006

The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing.

by the assets of a foreign trust, the amount charged will
be treated as a distribution to you by the foreign trust.
Similarly, if you write checks on a foreign trust’s bank
account, the amount will be treated as a distribution.

Nongrantor Trust
A nongrantor trust is any trust to the extent that the
assets of the trust are not treated as owned by a person
other than the trust. Thus, a nongrantor trust is treated as
a taxable entity. A trust may be treated as a nongrantor
trust with respect to only a portion of the trust assets. See
Grantor Trust above.

Also, if you receive a payment from a foreign trust in
exchange for property transferred to the trust or services
rendered to the trust, and the fair market value (FMV) of
the payment received exceeds the FMV of the property
transferred or services rendered, the excess will be
treated as a distribution to you.
Examples
1. If you sell stock with an FMV of $100 to a foreign
trust and receive $150 in exchange, you have received a
distribution of $50.
2. If you receive $100 from the trust for services
performed by you for the trust, and the services have an
FMV of $20, you have received a distribution of $80.

Owner
An owner of a foreign trust is the person that is treated as
owning any of the assets of a foreign trust under the
grantor trust rules.

Property
Property means any property, whether tangible or
intangible, including cash.

U.S. Agent
A U.S. agent is a U.S. person (defined below) that has a
binding contract with a foreign trust that allows the U.S.
person to act as the trust’s authorized U.S. agent (see
instructions for Part I, Lines 3a through 3g, on page 3) in
applying sections 7602, 7603, and 7604 with respect to:
• Any request by the IRS to examine records or produce
testimony related to the proper U.S. tax treatment of
amounts distributed, or required to be taken into account
under the grantor trust rules, with respect to a foreign
trust or
• Any summons by the IRS for such records or
testimony.

If you, or a person related to you, received a loan from
a related foreign trust, it will be treated as a distribution to
you unless the obligation you issued in exchange is a
qualified obligation. For this purpose, a loan to you by an
unrelated third party that is guaranteed by a foreign trust
is generally treated as a loan from the trust. See Section
V of Notice 97-34, 1997-25 I.R.B. 22.

Foreign Trust
A foreign trust is any trust other than a domestic trust.
A domestic trust is any trust if:
1. A court within the United States is able to exercise
primary supervision over the administration of the trust
and
2. One or more U.S. persons have the authority to
control all substantial decisions of the trust.

A U.S. grantor, a U.S. beneficiary, or a domestic
corporation controlled by the grantor or beneficiary may
act as a U.S. agent. However, you may not treat the
foreign trust as having a U.S. agent unless you enter the
name, address, and taxpayer identification number of the
U.S. agent on lines 3a through 3g. See Identification
numbers on page 3.

Grantor
A grantor includes any person who creates a trust or
directly or indirectly makes a gratuitous transfer of cash
or other property to a trust. A grantor includes any person
treated as the owner of any part of a foreign trust’s
assets under sections 671 through 679, excluding section
678.
Note. If a partnership or corporation makes a gratuitous
transfer to a trust, the partners or shareholders are
generally treated as the grantors of the trust, unless the
partnership or corporation made the transfer for a
business purpose of the partnership or corporation.
If a trust makes a gratuitous transfer to another trust,
the grantor of the transferor trust is treated as the grantor
of the transferee trust, except that if a person with a
general power of appointment over the tranferor trust
exercises that power in favor of another trust, such
person is treated as the grantor of the transferee trust,
even if the grantor of the transferor trust is treated as the
owner of the transferor trust.

If the person identified as the U.S. agent does not
produce records or testimony when requested or
summoned by the IRS, the IRS may redetermine the tax
consequences of your transactions with the trust and
impose appropriate penalties under section 6677.
The agency relationship must be established by the
time the U.S. person files Form 3520-A for the relevant
tax year and must continue as long as the statute of
limitations remains open for the relevant tax year. If the
agent resigns or liquidates, or its responsibility as an
agent of the trust is terminated, see Section IV(B) of
Notice 97-34.

U.S. Beneficiary
A U.S. beneficiary generally includes any person that
could possibly benefit (directly or indirectly) from the trust
(including an amended trust) at any time, whether or not
the person is named in the trust instrument as a
beneficiary and whether or not the person can receive a
distribution from the trust in the current year. In addition,
a U.S. beneficiary includes:
• A foreign corporation that is a controlled foreign
corporation (as defined in section 957(a)),
• A foreign partnership if a U.S. person is a partner of
the partnership, and
• A foreign estate or trust if the estate or trust has a U.S.
beneficiary.

Grantor Trust
A grantor trust is any trust to the extent that the assets of
the trust are treated as owned by a person other than the
trust. See the grantor trust rules in sections 671 through
679. A part of the trust may be treated as a grantor trust
to the extent that only a portion of the trust assets are
owned by a person other than the trust.

Gross Value

A foreign trust will be treated as having a U.S.
beneficiary unless the terms of the trust instrument
specifically prohibit any distribution of income or corpus
to a U.S. person at any time, even after the death of the
U.S. transferor, and the trust cannot be amended or
revised to allow such a distribution.

Gross value is the FMV of property as determined under
section 2031 and its regulations as if the owner had died
on the valuation date. Although formal appraisals are not
generally required, you should keep contemporaneous
records of how you arrived at your good faith estimate.

have the authority to execute this authorization of agent to act on
behalf of [ name of foreign trust ] and agree to accept service of
process for the above purposes.

after the street address. If the post office does not deliver
mail to the street address and the U.S. person has a P.O.
box, show the box number instead.
Foreign address. Do not abbreviate the country name.
Line 2. If the trust did not appoint a U.S. agent, attach
the following documents to Form 3520-A:
• A summary of the terms of the trust that includes a
summary of any oral agreements or understandings you
have with the trustee, whether or not legally enforceable.

wishes, any letter of wishes prepared by the settlor
summarizing his or her wishes, and any similar

Lines 3a through 3g. If a foreign trust with a U.S. owner
does not have a U.S. agent, the IRS may determine the
amounts required to be taken into account with respect to
the foreign trust by the U.S. owner. See section
6048(b)(2). In order to avoid this, a U.S. owner of a
foreign trust should ensure that the foreign trust appoints
a U.S. person to act as the foreign trust’s limited agent
for purposes of applying sections 7602, 7603, and 7604
with respect to a request by the IRS to examine records
or produce testimony, or a summons by the IRS for such
records or testimony. Any U.S. citizen, resident alien, or
domestic corporation (including a U.S. grantor or U.S.
beneficiary of a foreign trust) may act as the U.S. agent
of the trust.

(subject to limitations) paid or incurred by the trust on
amounts borrowed by the trust, or on debt acquired by
the trust, that is not reported elsewhere in Part II.
If the proceeds of a loan were used for more than one
purpose (e.g., to purchase a portfolio investment and to
acquire an interest in a passive activity), the fiduciary
must make an interest allocation according to the rules in
Temporary Regulations section 1.163-8T.
Do not include interest paid on indebtedness incurred
or continued to purchase or carry obligations on which
the interest is wholly exempt from income tax.
Line 10a. Foreign taxes. A foreign tax includes only a
tax imposed by the authority of a foreign country.
Line 10b. State and local taxes. Enter any deductible
state and local income or real property taxes paid or
incurred during the tax year that are not reported
elsewhere in Part II.
Do not deduct on line 10b or on any other line of Part
II:
• Federal income taxes.
• Estate, inheritance, legacy, succession, and gift taxes.
• Federal duties and excise taxes.
• State and local sales taxes. Instead, treat these taxes
as part of the cost of the property.

reasonable amount is allowed as a depreciation
deduction for the exhaustion, wear, and tear of:
• Property used in a trade or business or
• Property held for the production of income.

fees paid or incurred to the fiduciary for administering the
trust during the tax year.
Line 13. Charitable contributions. Generally, any part
of the income reported on line 8 that is paid (or treated as

specified in section 170(c) is allowed as a deduction. It is
not necessary that the charitable organization be created
or organized in the United States.

schedule.
Prepare a separate Foreign Grantor Trust Owner
Statement (see below) or Foreign Grantor Trust
Beneficiary Statement (see below) for each U.S. owner
or for each U.S. person who receives a distribution from
the trust.

The statement must also contain a description of the
trust ownership structure setting forth the name, U.S.
taxpayer identification number (if any), and country of
organization of all entities in which the trust has an
ownership interest, including an ownership chart showing
the trust’s position in the chain of ownership and the
percentages of ownership.
Note. The term “person” includes an individual or an
entity, whether U.S. or foreign. See page 3 for the
definition of U.S. person. A foreign person is an individual
or entity that is not a U.S. person.

Part II—Foreign Trust Income

• U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds.
• U.S. savings bonds.
• Original issue discount.
• Income received as a regular interest holder of a real
estate mortgage investment conduit (REMIC).
For taxable bonds acquired after 1987, amortizable

interest, dividends, capital gains, etc., from the
flow-through entity.
Line 5. Capital gains (losses). For capital gains
(losses) attributable to a U.S. owner, use Schedule D
(corporate or individual, whichever applies).
