A PFFI under a non-IGA jurisdiction or a Model 2 FFI report may also register on the FATCA registration site, on behalf of one or more of its branches, in a non-IGA or Model 2 jurisdiction, in order to obtain a GIIN and agree to comply with the terms of the FFI agreement. As a general rule, the FFI agreement does not apply to a 1 FFI reporting model or a branch of such an FFI, unless the 1 FFI reporting model has registered a branch outside a Model 1 IGA jurisdiction that wishes to be treated as a FFI or a 2 FFI reporting model. A USFI is generally not required to register under FATCA, whether or not it has a foreign branch. However, a USFI must register if the USFI decides to become a lead FI and/or a sponsorship unit, or if the USFI attempts to maintain IQ status for one or more of its foreign branches.
