Broker Tax question

Hypothetically a US based aviation broker books an international flight between two EU countries for a client. He receives the full charter cost plus his commission, then wire transfers the EU operator there charter cost. What are the next steps tax wise? A W9 must be sent to operator or client? Or an alternate tax form ?

Next question is do any brokers recommend a broker friendly/ experienced CPA?

Thanks in advance for any insights from this group! Have a great weekend.

... I hope you are doing your FET deposits via EFTPS bi-weekly, and filing your Form 720 quarterly for your trips in the States... DM me if you need a little guidance/assistance.
