I got my SMS verification code wrong multiple times - what should I do?

For your security, we only allow a limited number of attempts to enter the SMS verification code correctly. If you are having difficulties, you can request a new SMS, which will contain a new code and provide you with several further attempts.

What is an Active NFE? 

An Active NFE earns a significant portion of its income from manufacturing, sales, providing services, or anything else that can be considered ‘active business operations’.

Active NFEs get more than 50% of their gross income from active trade or business, or have more than 50% of their assets in operational business activities that generate income. 

What is a Passive NFE?

A Passive NFE gets more than 50% of its earnings as passive income – from interest, rents, dividends, and royalties.

There are different reporting requirements under FATCA and CRS, depending on whether a company is an Active or a Passive NFE. Understanding the difference between the two company types is crucial for international tax compliance.
