If you were subject to and paid generation-skipping transfer taxes, you may deduct them.

This is not common since you only have to pay generation-skipping taxes when you receive a very large gift from a relative other than your parent.

If you paid generation-skipping taxes on a gift that's been included as income on your return, you can deduct these taxes.  

______________________________________

If you make a taxable gift (one in excess of the annual exclusion of $14,000), you must file Form 709: U.S. Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return. The return is required even if you don’t actually owe any gift tax because of the $5.49 million lifetime exemption.

Please clarify.  Goods and Services Tax is not used in the USA.
