Yes, as a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder, you are required to file a U.S. tax return each year, regardless of where you live, if your income exceeds the filing threshold. This includes reporting your worldwide income. However, you may be able to use benefits like the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE) or Foreign Tax Credit (FTC) to reduce or eliminate double taxation.
