EUA chantageia 77 mil bancos da Terra: quer cobrar impostos de americanos no exterior.
Banco que não dedurar os Yankees, EUA confisca 30% dos ativos.
Se nascer no exterior será taxado, mesmo se nunca for lá.
An astounding 77,000 banks and financial institutions—even some in Russia—have registered under FATCA—the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. America’s global tax law requires foreign banks to reveal American accounts holding over $50,000. Non-compliant institutions could be frozen out of U.S. markets, so everyone is complying.

The fact that 77,000 banks have registered and some 70 countries are providing government help to the IRS means almost no foreign account is secret. And as the scramble of U.S. persons with accounts gets into high gear, the IRS has published a searchable list of financial institutions. See FFI List Search and Download Tool; plus a User Guide. Countries on board are at FATCA – Archive. With Swiss bank deals, prosecutions, summonses, and now FATCA, the IRS has quicker, better and more complete information than ever. Foreign Financial Institutions (FFIs) must report account numbers, balances, names, addresses, and U.S. identification numbers. There is 30% withholding on anyone who doesn’t report. With teeth like never before, Americans must report worldwide income and many must file IRS Form 8938 to report foreign accounts and assets.
