Required Tax Forms

To meet tax obligations, the platform automatically provides the necessary documentation based on your location:

  1. U.S.-Based Traders:

    • Receive a 1099 form, detailing your earnings for tax filing.

  2. International Traders:

    • Receive a W-8BEN form, which establishes your foreign tax status.

  3. Non-U.S. Businesses:

    • A W-8BEN-E form may be issued, depending on your entity type and local requirements.

How to Access Forms:
Tax forms are delivered through the payout platform and can be downloaded directly from your account dashboard.

Taxes on Cryptocurrency Payouts

If you choose to receive payouts in cryptocurrency (e.g., USDT or USDC), these transactions must still be reported for tax purposes.

  • Taxable Amount: Calculated based on the value of the cryptocurrency at the time of receipt.

  • Self-Reporting: It’s your responsibility to report these earnings in your tax filings.

Compliance and Reporting Tips

  • Keep accurate records of all payouts and tax forms issued.

  • Consult a tax professional if you’re unsure how to report your earnings.

  • Ensure your payout account details are up to date to avoid delays in receiving forms.

By providing the necessary tax documentation and automating much of the process, the platform ensures you can focus on trading while staying compliant. For further questions, contact support@vanquishtrader.com.
