US Stock Dividend Calculator in Korean Won (Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA… after 15% US tax)

How it works

Dividend before tax (US$) = shares × dividend per share. The United States withholds 15% for Korean residents under the tax treaty, so you receive 85% in dollars. In won = dollars × exchange rate × (1 − conversion fee). Because the US rate (15%) is higher than Korea’s 14% dividend tax, Korea normally withholds nothing more, but the gross foreign dividend still counts toward the ₩20 million yearly financial-income line for comprehensive taxation.

FAQ

Why did I receive less than 85%?

Check that your broker has a W-8BEN form for you; without it the US withholds 30%. Some brokers also convert dollars to won automatically with a fee.

Do I pay more tax in Korea?

Usually not at payment, because the 15% US tax is above Korea’s 14%. If your interest and dividends together exceed ₩20 million in a year, they are taxed again at progressive rates in May with a credit for the US tax.
