As at 15 April 2020, the Department for International Tax Cooperation (“DITC”) released a new CRS Compliance Form (the ‘Form’) to complete by 31 March 2021 for all Cayman Financial Institutions and Trustee Documented Trusts. This new form will become an annual requirement from 2020 reports onwards.
This requirement comes out of an on-going peer review of Transparency and Exchange of information for tax purposes, expected to lead to jurisdictional ratings on effectiveness in 2021. The Cayman Islands Tax Authorities have taken the steps, through this new requirement, to ensure data quality.
