International Income & Cross-Border Tax for Creators

Each of those routes carries its own withholding tax, VAT and currency treatment. We make sure you claim treaty relief where it applies, report foreign income correctly and never pay tax twice on the same pound.

W-8BEN forms and treaty rates so Google withholds 0% instead of 30%.
