Hello everybody,
I am fairly new here and have been investing for like 2 years now. Mostly small sums of money, around 200€ per month. I do mostly S&P500 but since I am in Europe I do the VOO.
I currently live in Kosovo and there is a 10% tax on income if you withdraw to a bank account.
I have two questions.
First one. How do I manage to get rid of the Withdrawn tax from dividends which is 30% for US companies? I own small stock of MO, KO, KHC, and SBUX. I receive dividends but I get taxed 30%. Should I start investing in VUSA and VHYL to lower the withdrawn tax?
Second one. Should I complete the form W-8 BEN and any guide on how to complete it properly?
Thank you very much.
