Is that still the case? I thought Panama is now a CRS jurisdiction.

I have a Chase account, some branches will let you open the account with a foreign address. Just visit a few branches in Florida.

Don't worry about that. Do NOT do any of that! Just trust me, I'm from Spain. Stay away from that lawyer!

Friendly nations doesn't play a role, at least not that I know of. It's probably better to use an agent that has contacts in different banks. If you open the account by yourself, be prepared to answer KYC questions. Don't forget that Panama belongs to the CRS. If you're fine with that, then...

Both!

Thailand belongs to the CRS, so all Thai banks report. Are you a Thai resident or are you a resident of another country? And are you a U.S. citizen? Either one (CRS and FATCA) will report you if you are not a Thai resident. If you're a Thai resident then no big deal.

There is a group of customers who have hired a lawyer in Puerto Rico, so feel free to join them. You can find their contact on this thread. Best of luck.

From the latest Report we can see that there's a lot... a LOT of buarocracy going on between OCIF, the Receiver, and Qenta.. and we are caught up in the middle of it. This Opt-in and Opt-out situation was a terrible idea. Dividing customers in two groups is delaying this process massively...

I don't think there's anything we can do until OCIF approves the liquidation plan and the Receiver sets an official migration date. I still find it very hard to believe that Brent De Jong got involved in the liquidation of EPB just end up stealing opt-in customers funds, that would be highly...

During the virtual town hall meetings that we had back in 2022 with Qenta, Brent De Jong said that "he had been involved in the liquidation of 2 banks in Dubai and in those cases customers lost money." He is now involved in the liquidation of EPB..., so I wonder, what is it with this guy who...
