Can I join the Fortnite Developer Program without providing my tax information?

When you enroll in a monetization program with Epic Games, you'll need to set up a tax profile as part of the enrollment process before you can receive any payouts. Epic is required to collect taxpayer information to fulfill tax calculations and reporting obligations in the United States. We are required to collect taxpayer information for all creators and developers to determine who is a US resident and who is not a US resident.

Without your tax profile being setup, your enrollment to the program cannot be completed. For more information, see the FAQs here (Opens in a new tab).
