Question

外贸美国客户要求提供W-9 和certificate of liability insurance.具体是指什么?
Can you send me a copy of your W-9 and a copy of your certificate of liability insurance for our records?

Answer 1

No. Form W-9 is used to gather information only from US persons and businesses. If you have a foreign contractor working for you, that person will need to fill out one of the several Form W-8 documents. Forms in the W-8 series are designed to indicate how much, if any, of payments made to a foreign person or business should be withheld for US income taxes. For an overview of these issues, see FAQ for US Withholding Agents on the IRS Web site.
你们如果是那米国人的外国供货商,这上面说你们应该填W-8表格,不是W-9.W-9,按照这上面的说法,只适用于米国人和米国企业.W-9需要的米国人的社会保险号和米国企业的编号.中国人的身份证号码和公司税号在W-9上木有用,因为米国国税局没有相应的记录.
