If it is a U.S. stock account opened by a citizen of China, the capital gains from the investment are not deductible, and so are other places. Only cash dividends or interest income are subject to 65,438+00% tax deduction, but residents in Hong Kong and Taiwan Province are subject to 30% tax deduction. This is a unified regulation of the IRS, and it will not change because of changing brokers, unless the broker is irregular.

Generally, American citizens or residents have to pay capital gains tax when buying and selling stocks or sharing funds. Among them, the long-term capital gains held for more than 18 months, with the tax rate of 10% to 20%, and the short-term capital gains held for less than 18 months, are regarded as general income and paid at the income tax rate. However, when foreigners invest in stocks or mutual funds, both long-term and short-term capital gains enjoy tax-free preferential treatment.

Generally, the dividends obtained by foreigners who invest in stocks or * * * are withheld at the highest rate of 30%, such as the dividends obtained by the Chinese brother Gu, who lives in Taiwan Province Province, who invests in US stocks or * * *. If the foreigner's country has signed a tax treaty with the United States, it will be withheld according to the preferential tax rate stipulated in the tax treaty, such as 10% for China, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia and Mexico.
