The US does not need to‍ join CRS as they have FATCA which is very similiar. You do not need to⁠ enact two laws to do the same thing. US had created FATCA and implemented it⁤ before CRS. It should in fact be OECD and CRS implementing FATCA properly for its⁣ citizens instead of re-inventing the wheel.

Article 2

https://www.treasury.gov/resource-c...es/Documents/FATCA-Agreement-UK-9-12-2012.pdf

1. Subject to the provisions of⁢ Article 3, each Party shall obtain the information specified in paragraph 2 of this Article︀ with respect to all Reportable Accounts and shall annually exchange this information with the other︁ Party on an automatic basis pursuant to the provisions of Article 27 of the Convention.︂
 
Yes but this︁ goes only for UK and Ireland did they sign this exact same agreement with all︂ other countries in the EU?
 
If there‍ was a TIEA or DTC signed with the USA before FATCA, the intergovernmental agreement (IGA)⁠ will be "Reciprocal".
 
It the‍ same for EVERY fatca agreement. Read them and not some wiki page written by an⁠ 8 year old.
 
Thanks. It is clear‌ FATCA is bilateral if people simply read article 2 of any of the agreements.
 
I think you will find that Nigerian banks have already implemented FATCA years ago. FATCA‌ does not require an IGA with a government to exist. Any financial institution outside the‍ US can register directly with the IRS and start reporting US persons.

You can check⁠ below if your financial institution is registered with FATCA. 64 Nigeria financial institutions already have.⁤

One pro for EPB. EPB has a bank card. uphold does not have that, they‌ have only virtual cards but I would hope they add physical cards in future as‍ well.
 
I don't think that is true. US reports when requested, but not on their own.⁤ Can you link to law which says it is bilateral automatic exchange of information?

Ok, where is it is said WHAT︁ kind of information is automatically provided? Names, account balances at end of year? What info︂ is it?
