i. If you are a "US Person" as said term is defined by the IRS, a signed and completed IRS form W9
must be submitted to Shutterstock for Shutterstock to make payments to you. You will receive an email containing instructions on how to download and submit this IRS form to us. A W9 is used to certify under penalties
of perjury that your social security number is correct and that you are not subject to backup withholding taxes. Foreign persons might
be subject to U.S. income tax on income they receive from U.S. sources.
If you are a "Foreign Person" as said term is defined by the IRS, a signed and completed IRS form W8
must be submitted to Shutterstock in order for you to claim a reduced rate
of, or exemption from, withholding as a resident
of a
foreign country with which the United States has an income tax treaty. You will receive an email containing instructions on how to download and submit this IRS form to us.
Тоесть, если вы живете в стране, которая по договору платит налоги США. Вроде так... то только в этом случае нужно заполнять форму. И то вам прийдет письмо на мыло. Похоже что к таким странам как Россия, Украина и тд никакого отношения это не имеет
