You need fill out the form W-8BEN.When i held ETF MINT by paying divis i paid 0% WHT but between 1.1.-17.2. ( annual settlement)they taxed that part of the dividends which was taxable. i paid total 5% WHT tax on dividends.
I have already filled out W-8BEN. May I know where you can find these detailed percentages withheld for individual tickers? Is it some report on Account Management? Thank you very much.

Sorry, this is not what I was asking. I wanted to know where you found out how much exactly IB had withheld for a ticker. I need to verify whether IB actually withheld less than 30% for some tickers. Thank you.
special treates for dividends are by REITS,BDC, and ETF that paid interest related dividend but you will not find this info on ibkr pages. I think that by MLP they issue K-1 are dividend distribution taxed with 30% WHT
How did you know that you actually paid total 5% tax on dividends on IB? nkass above said that IB charged him 30% on interest dividend, which was in line with my observation. My 1042-S report from IB shows 30% withheld even though I had submitted W-8BEN.
By receiving dividend from MINT ETF i received dividends tax free.This 5% WHT I was taxed between 1.1-17.2 in the annual settlement. I am retail investor. And now i cant by ETF and use closed end funds
Which IB report showed that they actually withheld 5% instead of 30%? Did you verify the number with IB? Or did you just guess that IB complied with the ETF prospectus?
