ISA providers don't support W8 forms

drb01

It appears that ISA providers such as iDealing and Hargreaves Lansdowne don't support W8 forms. Can I complete the W8 form separately myself in which case what do I do with it once I have completed it, or do I just have to suffer the 30% withholding tax rather than 15%?

Incidentally, this doesn't just apply to ISAs and SIPPs - they don't seem to support them at all from what I can see.

You're unlikely to find anyone on this board familiar with W8 forms - you're probably better off asking on a US based forum - have you tried Fool?

You are right - there's loads of it there. Thanks v much...

There are providers which support W8 forms.

HSBC Investdirect
Selftrade
iii (which means Halifax's own service and others which use that platform like the Motley Fool's sharedealing service should as well)

all come to mind..
