Update my tax information

Due to regulatory requirements, we're required to collect your tax residence information. Depending on your country, we may require a tax identification number (TIN) to confirm your tax status. To check what your country's TIN is, visit this FAQ.

You're typically considered a tax resident where you live or reside for 6 months of the year. If you have 2 or more fixed addresses in different countries, you may be considered a tax resident in multiple jurisdictions.

How to update my tax residences

To update your tax residences in-app:

  • Tap your profile icon in the top-left corner
  • Tap 'Account', select ‘Personal Details’, and choose ‘Tax residencies’
  • Tap 'Add' to add a new country and TIN, or tap the pencil icon to update your TIN
  • For any country that you no longer pay taxes in, tap the pencil icon and select ‘Delete tax residency’

To find the correct format of the tax identification number (TIN) you need to submit, you can check the OECD website.

I don't have the required TIN

If you don't have a TIN, you may be eligible for an exemption:

  • Tap your profile icon in the top-left corner
  • Tap 'Account', select ‘Personal Details’, and choose ‘Tax residencies’
  • Tap the pencil icon next to the country
  • If eligible, you will see ‘I can’t provide it now’
  • Select the relevant reason for not having a TIN

If you don't see the ‘I can’t provide it now’ option, you'll need to provide your TIN.

Why does Revolut need my tax residency and TIN?

Under the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) and the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), we need to collect certain tax-related information to identify whether an account holder qualifies as a reportable individual.

CRS was developed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It requires participating jurisdictions to obtain information from their financial institutions and exchange that information with other jurisdictions annually. For more details on CRS, visit the OECD website.

FATCA is a United States legislation that requires foreign financial institutions to obtain information about the foreign financial assets held by US citizens. For more details on FATCA, visit the IRS website.
