Plus an optional invoice. Or send a request link so they fill it for you.
Why this is not a $5 form filler
Other sites stop at a PDF. They often invent a treaty rate. They send US citizens to a W-8. They give accounts payable nothing to file.
Payeepack is the packet: the right form, a cover note, optional invoice, payer request link. Treaty lines stay blank unless you type them.

Do I send this to the IRS?
No. You give the signed form to the company that pays you.
I am a US citizen living abroad. Do I use a W-8?
No. US citizens and US tax residents use a W-9.
Will this cut 30% withholding?
We will not promise that. We do not auto-fill the treaty section.
What if I am a company, not a person?
Foreign companies use W-8BEN-E. We point you to the official IRS form. We do not fill that one yet.
