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.
If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity not subject to backup withholding, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8.
If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9.
Foreign vendors do not complete the Substitute Form W-9; foreign persons or entities must submit one of five available forms. The vendor must determine the one most appropriate to their United States tax status for reportable transactions.

Form W9 doesn't expire and is valid as long as the information it contains is correct. W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, and W-8ECI forms are usually valid for three years or as long as the forms contain correct information. W-8EXP and W-8IMY are usually valid indefinitely provided that the information doesn't change.
