Correction of Publication

    Accordingly, 26 CFR part 1 is corrected by making the following 
correcting amendments:

PART 1--INCOME TAXES

0
Paragraph 1. The authority citation for part 1 continues to read in 
part as follows:

    Authority: 26 U.S.C. 7805 * * *


0
Par. 2. Section 1.1441-6 is amended by revising paragraph (b)(2)(iv)(D) 
to read as follows:


Sec.  1.1441-6  Claim of reduced withholding under an income tax 
treaty.

* * * * *
    (b) * * *
    (2) * * *
    (iv) * * *
    (D) Example 4--(1) Facts. Entity E is a business organization 
formed under the laws of Country Y. Country Y has an income tax treaty 
with the United States that contains a limitation on benefits 
provision. E receives U.S. source royalties from withholding agent W. E 
furnishes a beneficial owner withholding certificate to W claiming a 
reduced rate of withholding under the U.S.-Country Y tax treaty. 
However, E's beneficial owner withholding certificate does not 
specifically identify the limitation on benefits provision that E 
satisfies.
    (2) Analysis. Because E's withholding certificate does not 
specifically identify the limitation on benefits provision under the 
U.S.-Country Y tax treaty that E satisfies as required by paragraph 
(b)(1)(i) of this section, W cannot rely on E's withholding certificate 
to apply the reduced rate of withholding claimed by E.
