US tax ID and payments outside US
I am almost finishing course 2 and based in UK. A question came up in while I was looking for affliate programmes. Most are US based e.g Amazon, ebay and they ask for inside or outside US tax ID which could be easily obtained by respective tax offices.
Unfortunately, if you are not from US, they will pay you eitheter via vouchers or pay by checque. Both ways you lose more money to sell your vouchers on other websites or paid by cheque and pay fee for that.
Not everybody pay through paypal as well.
I presume, because the business on the web and customers could be anywhere; it should be easy to register for US tax office. I donot know answer to that but will update my blog with my experience shortly.
Any comments or experiences you want to share would be really great.

Maybe Wealthy Affiliate's legal advisor's could give advice on this one. Would you pay US tax and duty as well as UK tax and duty? Just one point that needs to be answered.
I am the same as you I live in the UK. Are you saying that we can only affiliate on .co.uk sites ?
I am in the US and have a Amazon UK affiliation, so I would think you in the UK could also have a US Amazon affiliation.
