Who We Serve

US companies producing products here in the US and exporting products abroad.

What is IC-DISC?

The Interest Charge – Domestic International Sales Corporation (or IC-DISC) is an old and almost forgotten export incentive regime that dates back to the 1970s. However, almost all US exporters may benefit from operating with an IC-DISC structure. In addition, companies can take advantage of this potential tax savings with little to no disruption in how they currently operate their business.

Broadly, the IC-DISC involves internal accounting and tracking of foreign sales and profitability, in addition to some movement of funds among the organization and its shareholders. Establishing an IC-DISC can also be fairly straightforward and completed with relatively minimal start-up and ongoing costs, providing a potentially quick return on investment.

Note that the use of an IC-DISC structure is not a listed or reportable transaction, nor is it considered a “tax shelter.” It is actually one of the last in a long history of Congressionally provided export incentives afforded to US companies for producing here in the US and exporting products abroad.
