Hello,

Our university is now paying foreign vendors without a U.S. Bank via WIRE only. As part of this process, someone in Finance is calculating "international tax" withholding. In all the years I have worked in Acquisitions, I have never heard of this happening for library materials. I am trying to find out more about this process and have a meeting setup with that department, but would like to know if anyone in the community has experienced this situation.

Thank you

Julie
