Do you need to provide a TIN if you are a U.S. person?

If a customer is a U.S. person, we cannot proceed with opening a deposit account until a U.S. TIN has been provided. This is typically the individual’s Social Security Number (SSN).

The only exceptions are where the customer can provide evidence that:

• Their parents were foreign diplomats at the time of their birth; or
• They have formally renounced their U.S. citizenship.
