FAQ Question

Which FATCA certificate type should I buy?

FAQ Answer

IdenTrust offers two equivalent certificate types, which the IRS has approved to use for the FATCA program.


IdenTrust recommends using the FATCA Organization | Organization Identity | Software Storage certificates type since it was designed to provide an easier application and approval process. You should evaluate the information required for application and select the option that matches information you already have or can generate easily.

You may also select the FATCA | IdenTrust TLS/SSL | Organization Identity | Organization Validated (OV), which is the same certificate as our standard IdenTrust TLS/SSL | Organization Identity | Organization Validated (OV) certificate.


Our FATCA IRS Reporting Certificate Selection Wizard will assist you in choosing the best certificate to meet your needs.
