Registration
Non-US (Foreign) Organizations & Individuals
If you are an individual or business located outside the United States, complete the Registration Form on this page before you begin any work with World Vision.
Non-US individuals or organizations that will be performing work in the US must have a US Taxpayer ID number.
Entities in this category must send the applicable Form W-8BEN or 8233 W-9.
If a non-United States vendor, submit one of these forms to World Vision to perform services for World Vision “within” the United States.
To complete either of these forms a ITIN or EIN number issued from the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is required.
- Vendors registering as an organization; apply for an “EIN” number using IRS form SS-4.
- Vendors registering as an individual; apply for an “ITIN” number using IRS form W-7.
Include your EIN or ITIN number when submitting either IRS form 8233 or IRS form W-8BEN to World Vision.
- If a tax treaty exists between the United States and your (vendor’s) home country; submit IRS form 8233.
- If no tax treaty exists; submit form W-8BEN. Click here to see countries that have tax treaties with the United States.
PLEASE NOTE: If vendor submits IRS form W-8BEN, World Vision is required by law to withhold 30% of any payment made to vendor and forward such amount to the IRS. For more information go to: United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
- Once you have determined the form to use, email it to contracts@worldvision.org.
- After submitting applicable form to World Vision, return to Foreign Vendor Registration to submit Registration.
Non-US individuals or organizations that will NOT be performing work in the US, including entities who only sell goods or products to World Vision, do NOT need to complete and submit the IRS forms.
