Do you have to file a 1099 if you have forein accounts, what do you do if you dont have the account information, I cant recall it, what should I do..

[DavidD66]

As long as the foreign contractor is not a U.S. person and the services are wholly performed outside the U.S., then no Form 1099 is required and no withholding is required. You should get a form W-8BEN signed by the foreign contractor, and kept on file.
