This article describes the process of submitting tax information to Google Ad Manager for publishers who are required to do so. It outlines the steps to access the necessary forms and provides tips for ensuring accurate information and timely payments.
Depending on your location, Google may be required to collect tax-related information from you. If you do have to provide your tax information to Google, you can do so from your Ad Manager account. Not all publishers are required to provide tax information.
Note: Make sure you submit your tax information before the 20th to receive a payment in the same month.

- Click Payments, then Payments info.
- In the "Settings" section, click Manage settings.
- In the "Payments profile" section, click
next to "United States Tax info."
- Click Manage tax info.
- On this page you'll find a guide that will help you to select the appropriate form for your tax situation.
Tips
- After you submit your tax information, follow the instructions above to check the “United States Tax Info” section of your Payments profile to find the tax withholding rates that may apply to your payments.
- You’ll also be able to make any edits in case your individual or business circumstances change. If you've changed your address, make sure your updated permanent address is the same in both sections: "Permanent residence address" and "Legal address". This will ensure that your year-end tax forms (for example, 1099-MISC, 1099-K, 1042-S) are delivered to the correct location. If you’re in the US, you must resubmit your W-9 form with your updated legal address.
- Not all publishers are required to provide tax information.
- You'll only be able to add or edit your tax information once your revenue has reached the tax threshold. The "Tax Information" in your account will only allow you to submit tax information when it's appropriate for you to do so.
