PART 1—INCOME TAXES
Paragraph 1. The authority citation for part 1 continues to read in part as follows:
Authority: 26 U.S.C. 7805 * * *
Par. 2. Section 1.250-1, paragraph (b), is amended by adding at the end of the third sentence “, but once applied, taxpayers must apply the final regulations for all subsequent taxable years beginning before January 1, 2021”.
Par. 3. Section 1.250(b)-4 is amended:
a. In the last sentence of paragraph (d)(1)(ii)(D), by adding “for the seller's taxable year” after the words “less than $50,000”.
b. In the last sentence of paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(A), by adding “or (iii)” after “(d)(1)(ii)”.
c. In paragraph (d)(2)(iv)(B)( 10)(ii), by removing “potion” and adding in its place “portion”.
Par. 4. Section 1.250(b)-5 is amended:
a. In paragraph (c)(1), by removing “to consumers”;
b. In the first sentence of paragraph (e)(2)(iii), by removing “accesses the service” and adding in its place “accesses or otherwise uses the service”;
c. By revising paragraph (e)(5)(ii)(F)( 1); and
d. By revising the third and fourth sentences of paragraph (e)(5)(ii)(F)( 2).
The revisions read as follows:
(e) * * *
(5) * * *
(ii) * * *
(F) Example 6: Electronically supplied services that are accessed by the business recipient—(1) Facts. DC maintains an inventory management website for R, a company that sells consumer goods online. R's offices and all of its employees, who use the website, are located in the United States, but R sells its products to customers both within and outside the United States.
(2) * * * Accordingly, under paragraph (e)(2)(i) of this section, as modified by paragraph (e)(2)(iii) of this section, R's operations that benefit from DC's services are deemed to be located where the service is accessed by employees. Therefore, none of the provision of the inventory management website is treated as a service to a person located outside the United States and none is a FDDEI service under paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
Par. 5. Section 1.250(b)-6 paragraph (c)(3) is amended by adding “the seller and” before the words “all related parties of the seller”.
Par. 6. Section 1.861-8 is amended by revising paragraph (h) to read as follows:
(h) Applicability date. Except as provided in this paragraph (h), this section applies to taxable years that both begin after December 31, 2017 and end on or after December 4, 2018. The last sentence of paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(C)(1) of this section, and paragraph (f)(1)(vi)(N) of this section, apply to taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2021.
