Answer:
However, the American customer can only pay part of the bill to the Belgian supplier and the rest directly to the US federal tax service.
The supplier must therefore supply a fully completed Form W-8 Ben.
Form W-8 is intended for natural legal entities that are outside the US established.
The United States levies a tax of 30% on income when paid on one foreign (legal) person.
Exceptions to this deduction are possible, including a full one W-8 Ben form is submitted.
This requires a US Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
If the company does not have such a number, it can be applied for at the IRS.
The federal tax number is an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), an Employer Identification Number (EIN) or a
Social Security Number (SSN). Form indicating one of these numbers, subject to changes in the data unlimited valid. More about obtaining an American identification number for taxes at https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/International-Taxpayers/Taxpayer-Identification
If the Belgian company does not have or wants such a number, it is also possible to enter the Belgian tax number. If the beneficial owner a natural person
