On Monday, September 14, 2015, the IRS released final, temporary, and proposed regulations on the outbound transfers of intangibles under Section 367.

These guidelines clarify the coordination of the arm’s length standard with other sections of the tax code. In a truly significant change, the proposed regulations would eliminate the foreign goodwill going concern exception under Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(d)-1T and limit the scope of property.
