Federal Estate Tax in Ireland #305

August 26, 2024

In this week's podcast, I cover a topic that I did a couple of years ago.  FET is still an issue that I believe awareness is still not as wide as it should be.

Potential Federal Estate Tax (FET) on US-based assets is critical for for us all to be aware of, and is often unknown. If you have more than $60k worth of assets domiciled in the USA, could this be a lurking menace in your wealth??

There are a huge number of people here in Ireland, c20,000 in the top 5 US companies alone, who are receiving US stock options and who therefore own US assets.

I hope this helps.
