Form 1042-S Foreign Person's U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholdi

Note: The draft you are looking for begins on the next page.

Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING

This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or publication,
which the IRS is providing for your information. Do not file draft forms. We
incorporate all significant changes to forms posted with this coversheet.
However, unexpected issues occasionally arise, or legislation is passed—in this
case, we will post a new draft of the form to alert users that changes were made
to the previously posted draft. Thus, there are never any changes to the last
posted draft of a form and the final revision of the form. Forms and instructions
are subject to OMB approval before they can be officially released, so we post
drafts of them until they are approved. Drafts of instructions and pubs usually
have some additional changes before their final release. Early release drafts are
at IRS.gov/DraftForms and remain there after the final release is posted at
IRS.gov/LatestForms. Also see IRS.gov/Forms.
Most forms and publications have a page on IRS.gov: IRS.gov/Form1040 for
Form 1040; IRS.gov/Pub501 for Pub. 501; IRS.gov/W4 for Form W-4; and
IRS.gov/ScheduleA for Schedule A (Form 1040), for example, and similarly for
other forms, pubs, and schedules for Form 1040. When typing in a link, type it
into the address bar of your browser, not a Search box on IRS.gov.
If you wish, you can submit comments to the IRS about draft or final forms,
instructions, or pubs at IRS.gov/FormsComments. Include “NTF” followed by the
form or pub number (for example, “NTF1040”, “NTFW4”, “NTF501”, etc.) in the
body of the message to route your message properly. We cannot respond to all
comments due to the high volume we receive and may not be able to consider
many suggestions until the subsequent revision of the product, but we will
review each “NTF” message. If you have comments on reducing paperwork and
respondent (filer) burden, with respect to draft or final forms, please respond to
the relevant information collection through the Federal Register process; for
more info, click here.

Generally, every nonresident alien individual, nonresident alien
fiduciary, and foreign corporation with U.S. income, including income
that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in
the United States, must file a U.S. income tax return. However, a
return is generally not required to be filed by a nonresident alien
individual, nonresident alien fiduciary, or foreign corporation if such
person was not engaged in a trade or business in the United States at
any time during the tax year and if the tax liability of such person was
fully satisfied by the withholding of U.S. tax at the source. See the
instructions for Forms 1120-F and 1040-NR for more information.
Corporations file Form 1120-F; all others file Form 1040-NR. You may
get the return forms and instructions at IRS.gov, at any U.S. Embassy
or consulate, or by writing to: Internal Revenue Service, 1201 N.
Mitsubishi Motorway, Bloomington, IL 61705-6613.
En règle générale, toute personne physique étrangère non
résidente, tout fiduciaire étranger non résident et toute société
étrangère ayant des revenus américains, y compris des revenus
effectivement liés à la conduite d’un commerce ou d’une entreprise
aux États-Unis, doit déposer une déclaration d’impôt sur le revenu
aux États-Unis. Toutefois, une déclaration n’est généralement pas
requise de la part d’un particulier étranger non résident, d’un
fiduciaire étranger non résident ou d’une société étrangère si cette
personne n’a pas exercé d’activité commerciale aux États-Unis à un
moment quelconque de l’année fiscale et si l’obligation fiscale de
cette personne a été entièrement satisfaite par la retenue à la source
de l’impôt américain. Voir les instructions des formulaires 1120F et
1040NR pour plus d’informations. Les sociétés déposent le formulaire
1120-F; toutes les autres déposent le formulaire 1040-NR. Vous
pouvez obtenir les formulaires de déclaration et les instructions sur le
site IRS.gov, dans n’importe quel bureau de poste des États-Unis, ou

Por lo general, toda persona que es un extranjero no residente,
todo fiduciario extranjero no residente, y toda sociedad anónima
extranjera que perciba ingresos estadounidenses, inclusive de los
ingresos que son efectivamente conectados con la operación de un
comercio o negocio ubicado en los Estados Unidos, debe presentar
una declaración del impuesto estadounidense sobre los ingresos. Sin
embargo, por lo general no se requiere que un individuo extranjero no
residente, una sociedad anónima extranjera u organismo
fideicomisario extranjero no residente presenten una declaración si
dicha persona no participaba en ningún comercio o negocio ubicado
en los Estados Unidos en ningún momento durante el año tributario, y
la responsabilidad tributaria de dicha persona fuera liquidada
completamente mediante la retención del impuesto estadounidense
en la fuente del ingreso. Consulte las instrucciones de los Formularios
1120F y 1040-NR para obtener más información. Las sociedades
anónimas presentan el Formulario 1120-F, todos los demás presentan
el Formulario 1040-NR. Puede obtener los formularios de declaración
y sus instrucciones en IRS.gov, en cualquier embajada o consulado
de los Estados Unidos, o al escribir al: Internal Revenue Service, 1201
N. Mitsubishi Motorway, Bloomington, IL 61705-6613.
Grundsätzlich muss jede natürliche Person ohne Wohnsitz im Land,
jeder Treuhänder ohne Wohnsitz im Land und jede ausländische
Gesellschaft mit Einkünften in den USA, einschließlich Einkünften, die
tatsächlich mit der Ausübung einer gewerblichen oder geschäftlichen
Tätigkeit in den Vereinigten Staaten in Zusammenhang stehen, eine
US-Einkommensteuererklärung einreichen. Eine Steuererklärung muss
jedoch von einem nicht in den USA ansässigen Ausländer, einem nicht
in den USA ansässigen Treuhänder oder einem ausländischen
Unternehmen im Allgemeinen nicht eingereicht werden, wenn diese
Person zu keinem Zeitpunkt während des Steuerjahres in den
Vereinigten Staaten einer gewerblichen oder geschäftlichen Tätigkeit
nachgegangen ist und die Steuerschuld dieser Person durch den
Einbehalt der US-Quellensteuer vollständig beglichen wurde. Weitere
Informationen finden Sie in den Anweisungen für die Formulare 1120F
und 1040NR. Unternehmen reichen das Formular 1120-F ein, alle
anderen reichen das Formular 1040-NR ein. Sie können die
Rücksendeformulare und Anweisungen auf IRS.gov erhalten, auf jeder
