What are the tax implications when investing in international ETFs?

A: You need to open an international share trading account. ETrade offers this service.


As far as the Australian Tax Office is concerned, any income you make, or capital gains you receive, are classified as assessable income. Against this, you may also be subject to taxation from the US Dept of Inland Revenue. Should US taxes be levied, under a double taxation treaty with the US, the ATO will recognize any US taxes paid.
