The British Virgin Islands recently issued a press release extending the reporting deadline for FIs from August 18, 2017 to September 1, 2017. This extension applies to FIs reporting under the CRS and UK CDOT agreements, and is being granted because the BVI Financial Account Reporting System (BVIFARS) is down as a result of a Tropical Wave that affected the territory last week.
