New Excise Taxes Being Levied by IRS on Business Aviation
January 19, 2012
In recent years, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) auditors have become more aggressive in their audits of aircraft management companies and charter operators. The auditors have begun assessing federal excise tax (FET) on a wide variety of non-commercial flight operations, including flights conducted by aircraft owners under FAR Part 91 when the aircraft is managed by an outside management company. In a new article, NBAA Tax Committee members Keith Swirsky and Christopher Younger of GKG Law, P.C. analyze whether FET applies to these operations, and if in certain situations IRS auditors may be incorrectly asserting the FET is due. Review the article on NBAA's FET page.
