About this file

This file is the IRS Form W-8BEN (Rev. October 2021), a Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting, intended for use by foreign individuals receiving income subject to U.S. tax withholding. The form is related to the California GO-Biz UK Quantum Mission Logistical Support Request for Proposals, which seeks a consultant to coordinate logistics and in-market trade mission operations for a quantum technology trade mission to the United Kingdom scheduled for December 2026. The consultant will manage transportation coordination, secure hotel accommodations and venues, engage with in-market partners, and oversee other operational elements to ensure successful mission execution.

The W-8BEN form is a tax documentation requirement that foreign individuals must complete and submit to withholding agents or payers rather than the IRS. The form establishes the beneficial owner's foreign status, collects permanent residence and mailing address information, documents U.S. or foreign taxpayer identification numbers as applicable, and allows for claims of tax treaty benefits to reduce withholding rates on specified income types. Foreign individuals must certify under penalties of perjury that they are not U.S. persons and that income claimed on the form is either not effectively connected with U.S. business conduct or qualifies for treaty-based reductions. The form remains valid unless certifications become incorrect, at which point a new form must be submitted within 30 days.
