That's a good question. If you live in America, yes. If not, I don't think so. I want to say, as a u.s. citizen you have to pay global tax on all income earned and/or as a resident earning an income, unless your country taxes are higher and you are paying that country.

So if you aren't American, don't live in America, and earn an income from a company here, even if you own the company, I don't think you owe tax. Other than on the company of course.

Best to ask a CPA or lawyer though, this stuff gets tricky fast.
