W-8ben Tax ID for Switzerland

[Simona]

Hi There

I have recently opened a zazzle shop and trying to submit my W-8ben form to zazzle. I have been told two times to provide 

Please provide your Foreign Tax ID (aka FTIN) in Part I, section 6, this is the tax ID you use in your own Country given to you by your own government generally for working purposes but also for identification as an individual. 

I do not have a tax number but I have included my AHV number which is what I use for taxes. Swizerland does not require an individual have a tax number the AHV number is then used for taxes.

Anyone else have a zazzle shop in Switzerland. What have you done?

@Simona 
maybe something here will help:

google search for “what is the ftin for switzerland”

and go down thru the links….the AHV number is mentioned…

Thanks Idraw. I included my AHV number but I still recieved it returned. Kind of at a loss what else I could put in.
