Tax Exemption for Diplomatic Checks and Drafts in U S
The commissioner of internal revenue rules that checks and drafts of ambassadors and other foreign officials residing in the United States are exempt from tax when used for official business or incidental expenses of their residence. If they acquire property or engage in business, papers tied to ownership or business may be taxed. The ruling is grounded in treaty obligations under Article 117 of the US‑foreign convention and exempts diplomatic personnel from direct personal taxes unless they own property or operate a stand separate from official duties.
