For U.S. citizens living outside the U.S. you will enter your INTERNATIONAL ADDRESS on the W9. You'll need to leave the country blank so that it will save. Don't worry! These forms will not be mailed.
You must show your individual name and you may also enter your business or “doing business as” name on the “Business Name/disregarded entity” name line. You may use either your SSN or EIN (if you have one) but the IRS encourages you to use your SSN.
