While less than half of 1 percent (6,922) of all U.S. corporations reported a foreign tax credit for Tax Year 2010, the amount claimed ($118.1 billion) reduced the tax liability for these corporations 43.6 percent. When other credits were added, the overall tax liability was reduced an additional 5 percent to 48.6 percent, or from $270.6 billion to $139.1 billion. Corporations claiming a foreign tax credit in 2010 reported $470.4 billion in foreign-source taxable income. The Netherlands (7.6 percent), United Kingdom (7.1 percent), and Canada (6.7 percent) accounted for the largest shares of foreign source taxable income for the year.
