Another FBAR question
« on: June 07, 2010, 06:10:48 PM »
I hope this is the last one.  Should I report the branch address for my bank account, or should I use their headquarters address?  Thanks.

The instructions state (on page 6) the following:

"The geographical location of the account, not the nationality of the financial entity institution in which the account is found determines whether it is in an account in a foreign country. Report any financial account (except a military banking facility) that is located in a foreign country, even if it is held at an affiliate of a United States bank or other financial institution. Do not report any account maintained with a branch, agency, or other office of a foreign bank of other institution that is located in the United States."

This suggests to me that it's the branch address.
