Description

The International Independent Contractor Agreement is designed for use in formalizing the relationship between a corporation and an independent contractor. Specifically, it addresses the payment and tax obligations involved in engaging foreign independent contractors, including provisions for paying the withholding tax in King. Key features include details on ownership of deliverables, methodology and location of work, terms of payment, and rights of the contractor versus the corporation. The document ensures that the contractor maintains control over their time while specifying that they are responsible for their own actions and liabilities. Additionally, it outlines compliance with laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and nondiscrimination statutes, providing legal safeguards for both parties. Filling out this form requires attention to specific details such as the contractor’s name, payment structure, and applicable state laws, which should be carefully edited to reflect accurate and legal terms. The form is especially useful for attorneys, partners, and legal assistants who may be involved in drafting or reviewing contracts to ensure compliance and protect their organization’s interests.

While this opens doors to diverse talent and skill sets, it also introduces unique challenges in terms of tax compliance. One critical aspect of this compliance involves Form 1099, which US-based businesses may need to issue to foreign contractors for reporting payments made during the tax year.

Form W-8IMY - Certification of Foreign Intermediary, Foreign Flow-Through Entity, or Certain U.S. Branches for U.S. Tax Withholding is used for reporting payments to "flow- through entities" such as foreign partnerships or trusts.

Conversely, if the independent contractor is not a US person and did not perform any of their services within the US, you will not be required to issue Form 1099. Instead, the foreign contractor will have to complete and file Form W-8BEN.
