Tax Reclaim Service — US Sourced Income
Tax Reclaim Services for US Sourced Income are no longer being offered by GlobeTax due to the increasing complexity and cost involved in the long form reclaim process. All investors earning US Sourced Income are encouraged to look at the Relief at Source solution presented below to prevent further withholding.
