Hi guys

Did a search and didn't come up with anything from the last few years, not 
sure if much if anything has changed.

I run a SaaS app, and increasingly doing more and more business with US 
based customers. They're asking for a W8-BEN-E or W9 form, which is the tax 
registration/withholding forms for the IRS.

I *do* have a stock Delaware LLC and EIN/TIN set up (wholly owned by our 
P/L company here), but which form am I meant to use? Can I just use a form 
and say we're a P/L Australian company, or do I need to "put it through" 
the LLC?

Payments are all Stripe (in USD) so it's all automated – we don't have a US 
bank account (is on my list, but seems to be a pain to get one without 
visiting, plus then I'd have to muck around with Stripe to fix up the 
reconciliation to the new USD account, too much effort).

Would appreciate any insights – I would be astonished if I was the only one 
getting lost in all of this tax mess, and I would imagine it's a pretty 
common problem for SaaS apps with customers in the states who are still 
only incorporated here...

Thanks
Hugh
