The reason for this enquiry is that we want to open an account with PAYPAL and since we are registered in Estonia as a Financial Institution, PAYPAL has notified us that Estonia is a FATCA compliant country (https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/tax- policy/treaties/Pages/FATCA.aspx) and therefore we, as a FII (Foreign Financial Institution), must provide them with our GIIN ( Global Intermediary Identification Number) code or the exemption whereby we do not have a GIIN code as we are considered as a certified deemed- compliant or non-reporting FFI. These are the details of the licence we hold in Estonia:  Operating Licence: FFA000353  Country: Estonia  Issuing authority: FIU - Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit - Politsei  Area of Activity: Operating as a Financial Institution  Type of Activity: Borrowing and Lending operations  Start of validity: 11.10.2019  Valid until: Termless  Link to licence: https://mtr.mkm.ee/taotluse_tulemus/517982 We kindly ask you, in accordance with our licence, to inform us about:  our classification as an Estonian Financial Institution under FATCA classification.  whether we are exempt from applying for a GIIN and what such "exemption" would be for notification to PayPal.  Or in case we need to apply for a GIIN code, please indicate the procedure for such an application. We thank you in advance for your cooperation and for any information you can provide to help us open an account with PayPal.
