RFI Registration - Sponsoring entity FATCA only

Scenario: I am a Sponsoring Entity, registering for FATCA only. How do I register?

Please register as normal for one Regulatory Authority using the instructions contained in the following Guide document.

Single RFI reporting to single RA

If you are a Sponsoring Entity (.SP. GIIN) for FATCA purposes, please enter the GIIN of your Sponsored Entity (.SS., .SD., .SF., SB GIIN).

The first 6 characters of the GIIN will be the same for the SS and SP for example. You cannot search on .SS., .SD., .SF., SB., SP. GIINs

The second screen will include an additional section at the bottom of the page which requires information to be completed on the Sponsor.

Note: Sponsoring Entities do not have a reporting obligation for FATCA reporting purposes.

Note: If you are a Sponsoring Entity that is also a Reporting Financial Institution for FATCA purposes, please reach out to the IRS and obtain an additional GIIN for reporting your financial accounts and register separately using that GIIN.
