What is the purpose of the W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding) tax form?
As a potential new non-U.S. Qualcomm vendor, you are required to provide Qualcomm with a completed W-8 BEN form. This form will assist Qualcomm in assessing the appropriate withholding amounts from developer payments. Without a completed W-8BEN form, the developer may be subjected to a maximum withholding amount of 30% on all outbound cash transfers. Please fax the form to (858) 651-1988 – Attention: BREW Sales Administration. If you have any questions, please email brew-taxcert-req@qualcomm.com.
