Update US Tax info now of wait until I'm verified in UK?
Hello,
I’ve recently been asked to update my US Tax information.
I’m UK based - I don’t sell in US and have no immediate plans to do so.
I’m currently in the process of changing my legal entity and updating my new business address with Amazon UK.
My question is - do I wait until UK verification is complete (with my new business address) before then filling in the US Tax info with this new address?
Or do I fill in the US Tax info now with my current (home) address?
Just a bit confused if both UK and US accounts should have the same address and be the same legal entity or not.
I hope that makes sense!
Thanking you.

Where is your UK account verification up to and I presume you are talking about US tax as you do want to actually sell there ?!
If that’s correct and it’s via FBA, have you looked at the insurance costs too ?
Ate you registered for US tax ?

Hello again,
Following on from my previous post about US Tax information requests…
Hopefully, I can explain this issue clearly enough…
I’m a UK-based seller however when I originally opened my selling account, I mistakenly opened it on amazon.com.
(I’ve not used this US account - I’m currently being asked to update the Tax info for it)
I later realized I needed to open a UK account to sell in UK so I did that.
So my US seller account username is different from my UK username.
My US account username is the same as my UK business name.
I’m currently in the process of changing my UK legal entity to a private limited company
Will any of the above cause any issues with my accounts eg linked accounts or username issues?
Finally - if I do provide the Tax info for my US account, will I then be charged as a professional seller wth monthly fees as per UK?
If so then I’d rather not continue/proceed with the Tax update and verification process for US account.
Thank you very much - I appreciate its a lengthy post

I responded on your other thread
@Julia_Amazon can you merge these threads
Do you have 2 separate logins for the UK and US account ?

For Amazon USA Registration one does not need to wait for the account verification to be completed because submitting the US Tax ID forms is part of the US Account verification. Amazon should have sent two links to the IRS (Tax) Forms, one for US Resident and the other for Non-Resident. These forms should be W-8BENE and W-8BEN respectively. You will need to digitally sign the W-8BEN Form repeat W-8BEN Form and submit. End of the matter.

Does anyone know if my UK account will be deactivated next following my US account deactivation due to lack of use?
thanks
