7 checks Amazon sellers should make before resubmitting Form W-8

When Amazon sellers are asked to update their W-8 tax information, they can check the beneficial owner, form type, validity period, signing authority, tax residence, taxpayer identification number, and eligibility for treaty benefits. Foreign individuals generally check Form W-8BEN, and foreign entities generally check Form W-8BEN-E. Other types of persons or income situations may require a different form; see https://www.irs.gov/instructions/iw8.
