Question: Do non-US residents have to submit tax forms to the IRS if they collaborate with an American company?

Hi,

I am a non-US resident and provide counseling services on a website. The website represents an American company and, as such, they require all advisers to submit tax forms with proof that they paid their taxes to the IRS.

Since I am not an US resident – and therefore presume that the IRS does not care if I paid taxes to my country – I would like to know if they would require me to submit this form, or what laws apply in this situation.

Thank you!

Answer: If you are not a US citizen or resident and if your services are provided outside of the US then you have no US tax liability. A simple signed statement to the company showing these facts will be sufficient.
