FATCA and CRS reporting deadlines for 2025

Cayman Islands financial institutions have until 31 July 2025 to complete their FATCA reporting, CRS reporting and CRS filing declaration.

The other key FATCA/CRS deadlines for 2025 are as follows:

• Registration Deadline - 30 April 2025
• CRS Reporting - 31 July 2025
• CRS Filing Declaration - 31 July 2025
• FATCA Reporting - 31 July 2025
• CRS Compliance Form - 15 September 2025

The Cayman Islands Department for International Tax Cooperation (DITC) has stated that it will consider appropriate compliance and enforcement action where misclassification and non-compliance (including failure to register with the DITC) is discovered, including administrative penalties and fines.

The CRS enforcement guidelines v1.4 March 2023 detail some of the potential fines for entities and certain individuals in respect of the CRS regime.

Both Ogier's Corporate and Fiduciary team and Legal experts are on hand to assist.
