Foreign entity / PFE

A prohibited foreign entity is a statutory classification. A Chinese factory, an import, or a Made in USA claim does not decide it.

Cost-percentage safe harbor

This uses the Notice 2025-08 assigned percentages in the way Notice 2026-15 Example 1 describes. Mark lines produced by a prohibited foreign entity, and lines that are not in the project. Every other listed line counts as not prohibited-foreign-entity-produced only if you confirm that. Steel and iron are not in this ratio.

Category Year Project column Every listed line I do not mark is not produced by a prohibited foreign entity
