Does Amazon Withhold Taxes for a Foreign-Owned Single-Member LLC Based in the U.S.?
Hi everyone,
I am a foreign seller from Saudi Arabia with a single-member LLC based in the U.S. I recently updated my Amazon seller account to reflect my LLC's U.S. address. Following this update, Amazon indicated an applicable withholding tax rate of 24%.
I want to avoid this high withholding rate, and I'm curious about the experiences of other foreign sellers with similar setups. Specifically:
Does Amazon always withhold taxes at 24% for foreign-owned single-member LLCs based in the U.S.?
Are there any ways to reduce this withholding rate?
Any insights or experiences regarding how Amazon handles tax withholding for foreign-owned U.S.-based LLCs would be greatly appreciated.
