Product Highlights

Financial Institution Enrolment

Financial Institution Enrolment

  • Allow FIs to enrol with the Tax Authority by completing an enrolment form.
  • Allow FIs to enter information including name, GIIN number, and details of the Appointed Person who will file the CRS and/or FATCA filings on behalf of the FI.
  • Approve or reject a submitted enrolment form.
  • Approving an enrolment form automatically creates an FI in the system and sets up a user account so that CRS and/or FATCA filings can be filed securely.
Financial Institution Filings

Financial Institution Filings

  • Vizor AEOI supports two methods of collecting data from FIs:
    • Upload data in XML format – typically for larger FIs.
    • Manual data entry into specially designed web forms – typically for smaller FIs.
  • Validate XML file uploads before submission to the Tax Authority for authorisation:
    • XML file is fully validated against the XSD file published by the OECD for CRS or the IRS for FATCA filings.
    • Email notifications sent automatically if the submission fails.
  • Automatic submission of filing if both sets of validation produce no errors.
  • Once filing has passed, automatically notify FI of submission acceptance.
