Some countries have a tax treaty with the U.S. that can potentially reduce the tax withholding rate on your revenue. So, if you submit your tax info and claim a treaty benefit your tax rate might be reduced. For example, partners in the UK or Canada may be eligible for a rate of 0%, while partners in Mexico or Korea may be eligible for a tax rate of 10%.
