FIRPTA

Withholding and certificate filings under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act for non-U.S. sellers.

Common question

Is FIRPTA withholding the actual tax I owe?

No — it's a withholding mechanism, usually well above the actual tax owed on the gain. A U.S. non-resident return is typically required afterward to reconcile the withholding against actual tax and claim back the difference.
