From: Dlugash, Alan Sent: Tuesday, June , : To: Jeffrey E. Cc: Richard Kahn Subject: RE: FBAR/FATCA I'm reasonably familiar with FBAR and FATCA issues, but I also do have access to experts. Trustees of trusts organized under US law are required to file FBAR reports. More than 50% beneficiaries of US trusts are obligated to file FBAR's, but this requirement is waived if a US trustee of the trust files on behalf of the trust. FATCA reporting is basically only for individuals. Individuals who are beneficiaries of trusts do not have to include in their FATCA filing foreign financial assets that are in the trust solely because they are beneficiaries of the trust.
