Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a
foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person (under
Regulations section 1.1441-1(b)(2Kiv) or other applicable section for
chapter 3 or 4 purposes), do not use Form W-9. Instead. use the
appropriate Form W-8 or Form aM (see Pub. 515), If you are a
qualified foreign pensionfund under Regulations section 1.897t4-1(4 or
a partnership that is wholly owned by qualified foreign pension funds,
that is treated as a non -foreign person for purposes of section 1445

Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a
nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce
or eliminate U.S_ tax on certain types of income. However, most tax
treaties contain a provision known as a saving clause. Exceptions
specified in fhe saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to
continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise
become a U.S_ resident alien for tax purposes.
If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception
contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption
from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement
to Form W-9 that specifies the following fire items_
1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under
which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.
2. The treaty article addressing the income.
3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the
saving clause and its exceptions.
4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption
from tax.
5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of
the treaty article.
Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an
exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese
student temporarity present in the United States. Under U.S, law, this
student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if their stay in the
United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the
first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30. 1984) allows the
provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese
student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese
student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first
Protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax
on their scholarship or fellowship iricome would attach to Fonn W-9 a
statement that includes the information described above to support that
exemption.
if you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the
appropriate completed Fomi W-8 or Form am.
