What is a W-8BEN form and why do I need one?

A W-8BEN form enables us to claim a potential reduction in the amount of US tax you’re charged on dividends from US shares. It is a mandatory form to fill out if you want to trade US stocks. You can fill an online W-8BEN form in MY IG by clicking on settings then dealing US Stocks.

Alternatively, you can find the form here.
