FATCA & CRS Reporting for Cayman Funds

What is FATCA and CRS compliance in Cayman?

These are international tax reporting regimes that require certain Cayman entities to report financial account data to the IRS (FATCA) and global tax authorities (CRS) through the Cayman Department of International Tax Compliance’s (DITC) AEOI portal.

Who needs to file FATCA or CRS reports?

Cayman financial institutions must classify their entities, register with the DITC and the US's IRS, and submit accurate annual returns to the DITC.

Yes. We manage IRS GIIN applications, DITC registrations and can act as your Principal Point of Contact.
