Ah, yes, I'm sure this is more difficult outside the US. It's funny how Amazon can have a dedicated website in other countries so they can sell, but can't make separate provisions for the creators there.
Can you offer an insight here, as I don't have experience with these difficulties? Thanks for your comment!
Unless you supply a national tax certificate, (own country) Amazon retains 30% of your earnings. That's fair enough and is explained clearly by them. Once the document from the treaty country is submitted, they stop deducting the 30%.
Thanks for the info, Andre!
The reply to this is a post in and of itself. I would need to re-research everything so I would have all the correct names.
I was hoping you would do a further article on this topic.
If you don't, I will surely write one sometime, but not in any timely manner.
I will look into it and see what I can find out, @builderofcastles. I have a lot of self-pub friends, some of which are not US-based.
