Dear Client,
This notice serves as an official reminder of your obligation to maintain valid Form W-8BEN documentation, as required by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The form certifies your foreign status and authorizes the application of tax-treaty benefits under applicable international agreements.
Our recent audit has determined that your certification has expired or will expire shortly. To remain compliant with U.S. tax law, renewal of this documentation is mandatory. If your updated W-8BEN is not received, we will be legally required to apply the maximum withholding rate of 30% to all U.S.-sourced income, in accordance with federal regulations.
Please complete your renewal through the following secure link:
Submit Updated W-8BEN
The renewal process is straightforward and designed to protect both your account and your treaty-based privileges. Completing this step promptly ensures uninterrupted account access, accurate reporting, and continued eligibility for reduced withholding rates.
We encourage you to act without delay to avoid service disruption. Should you need any assistance, please reach out to our Compliance Support Team.
Thanks for your cooperation,
eToro Customer Care
