Common Reporting Standard (CRS) The organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) released a
model Competent Authority Agreement (CAA) and Common Reporting Standard (CRS) designed to create a global
standard for the automatic exchange of financial information. To satisfy the Standard for the automatic exchange of
financial account information between tax authorities worldwide and the Participating Jurisdictions, the Cyprus tax
authorities, must obtain certain information and exchange them with the partner countries annually. Based on that
Agreement, we are required to collect and review certain information in order to identify the tax residency or multiple
tax residencies of each Controlling person in a company or Trust managed by Fiduserve.

TAX Residency Details


Country/ies of Tax Residency Taxpayer Identification Number **

** The term ‘TIN’ means Taxpayer Identification Number or a functional equivalent in the absence of a TIN, some jurisdictions do not issue a TIN.
However, these jurisdictions often utilise some other high integrity number with an equivalent level of identification. Example of that type of number
include, for individuals, a social security/insurance number, citizen/personal identification/service code/number, and resident registration
number.

Note: If TIN is unavailable because the country of resident does not issue TINs to its residents please provide us with the name of
the country. Click to type
