For Americans & dual nationals

01 / START WITH YOUR FBAR

Saudi accounts. US reporting rules.

حسابات في السعودية. والتزامات إبلاغ أمريكية.

Many people discover their FBAR obligations years after moving abroad. Whether this is your first filing or you have years to catch up, start by understanding what applies to you.

THE NUMBER TO KNOW$10,000+

Combined value. Not per account.

An FBAR is generally required when a US person’s reportable foreign accounts exceed $10,000 in total at any time during the calendar year.

01

It’s a report, not a tax.

The FBAR reports foreign financial accounts to FinCEN. It is filed separately from your US tax return.

02

More than your main bank account.

Savings, joint accounts and certain investment accounts may count. Signature authority can also create a reporting obligation.

03

Missed years need the right approach.

Your tax filing history and circumstances determine the appropriate catch-up route. We review those before recommending your next step.

WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?

Choose the closest match to your situation.

05 / QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

You’re not the only one asking.

لست وحدك من يسأل.

A few answers to help you take the first step.

Ask Aya your question
Do I need an FBAR if I live in Saudi Arabia?هل أحتاج إلى FBAR إذا كنت أعيش في السعودية؟

Living in Saudi Arabia does not, by itself, remove the requirement. US persons generally need an FBAR if they have a financial interest in, or signature authority over, reportable foreign financial accounts whose combined value exceeds $10,000 at any time in the calendar year. Exceptions can apply.

What if I’ve never filed an FBAR?ماذا لو لم أُقدّم FBAR من قبل؟

Start with a review of your circumstances. The appropriate route depends on the missing years, whether income and tax were correctly reported, and whether the IRS has contacted you. Catch-up options have specific conditions; penalty relief is not automatic.

Is an FBAR the same as a US tax return?هل FBAR هو نفسه الإقرار الضريبي الأمريكي؟

No. The FBAR is FinCEN Form 114, a foreign account report filed with FinCEN. Your federal income tax return is filed with the IRS. Filing one does not replace the other, and additional foreign asset reporting may also be required.

Can I catch up through the Streamlined procedure?هل يمكنني تسوية المتأخرات عبر إجراءات Streamlined؟

Potentially. The Streamlined Foreign Offshore Procedures are for eligible taxpayers who meet the non-residency requirements and can certify non-willful conduct. They generally involve three years of tax returns and six years of FBARs. Tax and interest remain payable. We assess eligibility before recommending this route.

Can we handle everything in Arabic?هل يمكنني التواصل معكم بالعربية طوال الوقت؟

Yes. Aya speaks Arabic and English, so you can discuss your situation and receive explanations in Arabic. Official US forms and submissions are prepared in English where required.
