Hello,
Individual earned income in a foreign country that does not have a tax treaty with the US (Serbia). Can this individual apply form 2555?
According to topic - Foreign Earned Income Exclusion:
Since the individual lived and worked and Serbia the whole year he can exclude up to $107,600?
I had the impression that only when it comes to a foreign country that has a tax treaty with the states, form 2555 can be used.
Thanks,

If they meet the physical presence test and their tax home is in a foreign country they can claim the foreign earned income exclusion.
There is no requirement that the country have an income tax treaty with thUS.
Thanks a lot.
