INDIAN Authors - USA(iTin) Tax Discussion Only

Hi can any one tell us how much US tax deduction done for you statement?

For me $7, deducted from my $41.3 item sale, $59 is list pice.

I got $34 instead of $41.3 its too bad ;(

Yes you can!

15% just as expected.

Noticed in my statement that, for a $10 item, $2 for Buyer fee. $1.2 for US RWH Tax (Which is15% of 80%). Author fee is separate. Finally my account receive $5.8 which is the maximum possible earning for a $10 item (for an Indian author on US sale).

great job!

So if I have a company here, I can just use my PAN as foreign tax number, correct?
