Default Form W-8BEN and Form W-9

Form W-8BEN and Form W-9

American citizens and residents living overseas are often asked to complete Form W-9 by U.S. financial institutions and other withholding agents to overcome any presumptions of foreign status. Form W-9 is used to confirm that the payee is a U.S. person, his or her Social Security Number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number is correct, and the payee is not subject to backup withholding due to the failure to report interest and dividend income. Failure to provide a Form W-9 when requested may lead to backup withholding or withholding at the 30% rate typically applied to foreign persons.

Similarly, foreign persons are often asked to complete Form W-8BEN to establish that they are not a U.S. person, are the beneficial owner of certain U.S. income, and claim a reduced rate of U.S. withholding as a resident of a foreign country with which the U.S. has an income tax treaty. Failure to provide a Form W-8BEN when requested may lead to withholding at a 30% rate.

Hope it helps!
