Frequently Asked Questions for United States Residents
Do I have to report my Pakistani property to the IRS?
Physical real estate held directly in your own name does not need to be reported on FBAR. However, rental income generated or bank accounts in Pakistan holding funds above $10,000 must be reported on FBAR and IRS tax returns.
