Vendor Tax Compliance
US entities and institutions are leveraging leading edge regulatory technologies to validate W-8 tax forms for their vendors, suppliers and non-employee compensation arrangements, whilst mitigating their risk and improving the efficiency of their tax documentation processes.
Risk of non-compliance for expanding vendor payments
US entities and institutions making payments to non US vendors or individuals is a common practice for services rendered. Many outsource this to payment service vendors as these payments require that you collect and validate a minimum of a US TIN or W-8 to prevent backup withholding and identify valid exemptions or treaty reduction where applicable.
