What Is This
Form W-8BEN is the certificate a foreign individual signs to establish non-U.S. status, identify a country of residence and foreign tax ID, and claim a reduced treaty rate on U.S.-source income otherwise withheld at 30 percent.

Certificates lapse on the last day of the third calendar year after signing, and nobody is watching that clock
