FATCA Documentation Request
What is FATCA
The Foreign Account Tax compliance Act (FATCA) is a US tax law that requires Foreign Financial Institutions
(FFIs), including Banque du Caire (BDC) and its affiliates to register with the US Internal Revenue Service
(IRS). FATCA also requires both US withholding Agents (USWAs) and FFIs to (i) identify their US and nonUS clients who hold financial accounts; (ii) properly document from a US tax perspective the clients holding
financial accounts in order to establish their FATCA compliance status; (iii) in certain circumstances apply a
30% withholding tax in certain US source income payments made to Non-Participating Foreign Financial
Institutions (NPFFIs); and (iv) report certain information on US and NPFFI clients’ financial accounts by
Banque du Caire to the relevant tax authorities.
To comply with the client identification and documentation obligations of FATCA, Banque du Caire must
request valid US tax documentation (i.e. Form W-9, Form W-8 and/or a self-certification form) and supporting
documentation, where applicable, from clients and counterparties with whom it transacts business in order to
document their FATCA
Clients who fail to provide applicable documentation to certify their FATCA status to Banque du Caire by
relevant regulatory deadlines will be categorized according to the FATCA regulations and as a result may be
subject to a 30% FATCA withholding tax on US source income payments and reporting to the relevant tax
authorities.
Please also be advised the Banque du Caire will be required to apply withholding tax and report on accounts that
are recalcitrant and/or NPFFIs as determined by the documentation received by Banque du Caire.

Documentations required
In line with the FATCA account due diligence for accounts held by Financial Institutions, Banque du Caire
requests that you complete, date, sign and return the applicable US tax form.
