Abstract

The United States gift tax applies to all gifts made by U.S. citizens, whether they live inside or outside the United States. Some gifts made by non-residents who are not citizens of the United States may also be subject to gift tax. A gift tax exclusion of $11,000 keeps small gifts from being taxed. In this article, assume that all of the examples presented below exceed the $11,000 exclusion.
