Generally, nonresident aliens are subject to gift tax only on transfers of real or tangible personal property situated in the U.S. Thus, gifts of intangible property by a nonresident alien are generally exempt from gift tax. Property that is not considered intangible property (thus subject to gift tax) at the time of the transfer includes: (i) real property within the U.S., (ii) tangible personal property situated within the U.S. and (iii) U.S or foreign currency or cash within the U.S. As mentioned earlier, it is important to note that situs rules differ between the gift and estate tax laws.
