This section identifies income treated as coming from outside the United States and explains how to calculate taxable income from those items.

(a) Gross income from outside the United States includes: (1) interest other than section 861(a)(1) United States-source interest; (2) dividends other than section 861(a)(2) United States-source dividends; (3) pay for labor or personal services performed outside the United States; (4) rent or royalties from property outside the United States or rights to use listed property outside it; (5) gains from selling or exchanging real property outside it; (6) gains from buying inventory in the United States and selling or exchanging it outside; (7) underwriting income other than section 861(a)(7) United States-source income; (8) gains from disposing of a United States real-property interest when the property is in the Virgin Islands; and (9) guarantee payments from a foreign person for that person's debt, except amounts treated as United States-source under section 861(a)(9). (b) Deduct from these items the properly apportioned or allocated expenses, losses, and other deductions, plus a ratable share of deductions that cannot be assigned to an income item or class. The remainder, if any, is fully taxable income from outside the United States. For an individual who does not itemize, the standard deduction is treated as unassignable.

From the items of gross income specified in subsection (a) there shall be deducted the expenses, losses, and other deductions properly apportioned or allocated thereto, and a ratable part of any expenses, losses, or other deductions which cannot definitely be allocated to some item or class of gross income.
