    FATCA/CRS FAQs:- 1. What is FATCA? The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) is a United States federal law that requires United States persons, including US persons who live outside the United States, to report their financial accounts held outside of the United States, and requires foreign financial institutions to report to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) about their U.S. clients. Government of India (GOI) has signed a Model 1 Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) with US on July 9, 2015 which necessitates financial institutions in India to comply with FATCA. 2. What is CRS? CRS is known as Common Reporting Standards. It is an information standard for the automatic exchange of information (AEoI), developed in the context of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The Government of India has also joined the Multilateral Competent Authority Agreement (MCAA) on June 3, 2015 and financial institutions in india to comply with CRS. 3. Why do we need to ask the FATCA/CRS declaration from the customer? Government of India (GOI) has signed a Model 1 Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) with US on July 9, 2015. The IGA provides that the Indian FIs will provide the necessary information to Indian tax authority i.e. Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), which will then be transmitted to USA automatically in case of FATCA. The Government of India has also joined the Multilateral Competent Authority Agreement (MCAA) on June 3, 2015, for exchanging information with respective tax authorities from 63 partner jurisdictions which are signatories to MCAA. To enable this, CBDT has issued a notification to all financial institutions in India to comply with the CRS and FATCA regulations.
