Withholding Tax of US company while working from Pakistan
Hi,
Currently I am providing software development services from Pakistan (offshore) to a U.S.A based software development company, and they are saying that they will withhold 30% of the amount which is agreed between us for my services.
I am also paying income tax in Pakistan, do they really need to withhold this amount or is there any examption from U.S.A point of view or anything can help for the reduction of 30% amount?
I have found following Tax Treaty agreement between Pakistan/U.S.A but I am unable to understand it correctly.
Regards,
Shamir
