Controlled foreign corporation (CFC) rules are regulations that target foreign corporations where U.S. shareholders hold a significant ownership interest, typically defined as more than 50% of the total voting power or value. These rules aim to prevent tax avoidance by requiring U.S. shareholders to report their share of the CFC's income, ensuring that foreign income is taxed appropriately rather than allowing it to escape taxation through offshore structures.
