Irish Dividend Withholding Tax

Mahdollisuudet hankkia vapautus Irlannin osinkojen lähdeverosta

 

Eaton Corporation plc on ollut verovelvollinen Irlannissa vuoden 2012 aikana, joten sen osingot nähdään irlantilaiseksi tuloksi ja Irlannin osinkojen lähdeveroon liittyvät säännöt ovat voimassa." Irlannin pidätysvero, joka on summasta 20 %, koskee kaikkia osinkomaksuja, ellei niihin oikeutettu osakas ole verovelvollinen Yhdysvaltoihin tai luettelossa mainittujen ”olennaisten alueiden” maan asukas, joka on varmistanut, että heidän välittäjällään, pankillaan, soveltuvalla välittäjällään tai luovutusasiamiehellään on tiedossaan vaaditut asiakirjat. Näiden sääntöjen avulla suurin osa Eatonin osakkaista ja todellisista omistajista saa vapautuksen osinkojen lähdeverosta.


Vastaa seuraaviin kysymyksiin, jos haluat tietää, miten voit saada vapautuksen Irlannin osinkojen lähdeverosta Eaton Corporation plc -osakkeidesi osalta.  W-9 tai W8-BEN kuitenkin vaaditaan, jos haluat välttää myös Yhdysvaltojen osinkoverot.  Rahoituslaitoksellasi saattaa olla jo nämä asiakirjat käytössään.

Jos Irlannin osinkojen lähdevero on jo aiemmin veloitettu tililtäsi ja tarvitset ohjeita veronpalautuksista tai verohyvitystiedoista, napsauta tästä.

On jokaisen yksilön vastuulla tutustua kaikkiin vaihtoehtoihin, joka saattaa soveltua heidän henkilökohtaiseen tilanteeseensa, arvioida sen soveltuvuus yleiseen sijoittamisstrategiaansa ja päättää omalla kohdallaan paras ratkaisu.  Tämän prosessin osana saatat haluta keskustella välittäjäsi, taloudellisen neuvojasi tai veroneuvojan kanssa saadaksesi ammattitaitoista apua.  Kaikki vaihtoehdot eivät välttämättä sovi juuri sinulle.  Kaikki vaihtoehdot eivät ehkä koske sinua.

    Hakija on Yhdysvaltojen ulkopuolisen olennaisen alueen asukas, jonka osakkeet ovat välittäjällä (OUS)
    Irlannin osinkojen lähdeverovapautuksen hankkiminen:

    • Varmista, että välittäjälläsi on tiedoissaan V2-lomakkeesi, jonka saa täältä 
    • Varmista välittäjältäsi, että he hoitavat Irlannin osinkojen vapautusveron poikkeushakemuksen puolestasi

    Jos välittäjälläsi on kysymyksiä poikkeuksen hakemisesta, he voivat käydä sivustolla http://www.dtcc.com ja hakea ohjeita hakusanalla ”Eaton”.  Nämä ohjeet sisältävät maakohtaiset hakuvaatimukset sekä ohjeita erikoistilanteisiin, kuten rahastoihin ja kumppanuuksiin.  Muiden kuin Yhdysvaltojen verovelvollisten yhdysvaltalaiset pankit tai välittäjät (eli DTC-osallistujat), jotka eivät ole hyväksyttyjä välittäjiä, on lähetettävä lomake V2 sellaisella tavalla, että BNY Mellon on hyväksytty välittäjä, jotta he voisivat saada vapautuksen osinkojen lähdeverosta.

     

    Tämän sivun tarkoituksena on antaa hyödyllistä ohjeistusta osakkaille, joiden tililtä on vähennetty Irlannin osinkojen lähdevero ja jotka haluavat tietoa veronpalautusten tai verohyvitysten hakemisesta.  Sijoittajien ei tule suhtautua näihin tietoihin ammattitaitoisen veroneuvojan korvaajana, ja suosittelemmekin, että haet heidän apuaan näissä usein monimutkaisissa verotilanteissa.

    I am a United States Tax Resident.  How do I claim a refund of Irish DWT from the Irish Tax Authority?
    • If you do not obtain an exemption from Irish DWT, you may apply for a refund directly from the Irish Tax Authority.
    • Refund claims may be made in the same year as the Irish DWT was withheld, however, they must be made within four year from the end of the calendar year in which the tax was deducted  (e.g. a refund claim for Irish DWT withheld in May 2017 must be made by 31 December 2021).
    • Total cost over five years includes a $85 (USD) IRS “user fee,” plus postage/courier fees.
    • Refunds are issued by the Irish Revenue Commissioners in € Euros by check.
    • It is common for refunds filed directly to the Irish Revenue Commissioners to take 9-12 months to pay.
    • GlobeTax may be able to assist you for a fee per share subject to a minimum fee (in addition to the $85 paid to the IRS), but you do not need to use GlobeTax to claim a refund of Irish DWT.
    • If you wish to use GlobeTax, contact them at eCertsEaton@globetax.com.
    • Refunds paid through GlobeTax will be made in $ USD by check.
    • Refunds through GlobeTax are often received in half the time as filing directly.
    • Lähetä lomake US IRS-8802  Yhdysvaltojen verohallinnolle ja maksa 85 $ ”käyttömaksu”, niin saat IRS:n lomakkeen 6166.
    • Lähetä Irlannin valtiovarainministeriölle seuraavat lomakkeet kirjattuna kirjeenä (esim. FedEx, UPS, DHL, muu kirjattuja kirjeitä tarjoava postipalvelu):

      • Alkuperäiset osinkojen arvosetelit
      • Lomake 6166*
      • Lomake V2*
      • Kaikki muut Irlannin tulojen vaatimat lomakkeet: lue julkaisu ”Dividend Withholding Tax Refund Claim Form – Claim from or on behalf of Certain Non-Resident Persons for Refund of DWT”. 

    * Sinun ei tarvitse täyttää näitä uusia lomakkeita jokaisen hyvityshakemuksen kohdalla. Lomakkeet ovat voimassa sen vuoden, jolloin ne allekirjoitetaan, ja viisi kalenterivuotta sen jälkeen.
