Foreign property - real estate tax

UserID1853042 · ‎March 23, 2026

Hi

I have a 2nd home overseas which is non-rental. This is only my 2nd home, nothing else.

I did pay real estate tax in 2025 to city govt in that country. Can I get credit for real estate tax paid on my 2025 returns?

Thank you very much

Regards
