What's next for "From the machine room"?

Hello,

I want to continue my series “From the machine room” and provide further insight to the community how TDF is organized and operated.

I have three proposals about which I could write. I want to write about all of them, but to determine the order, let me know which one interests you the most - then I’ll start with that!

If there’s any other topic you are interested in and that I should write about, please let me know, I am happy to consider the community’s proposals!

Here’s what I have currently on the list, in no particular order:

opening bank accounts

  • passport copies and verification
  • signatures on papers
  • international tax status (e.g. FATCA)
  • source tax and W8-BEN confirmation

international payments and wire transfers

  • IBAN and BIC
  • out-of-SWIFT payments, branch and routing numbers
  • specific country regulations (e.g. Romania and Hungary)
  • anti money-laundering rules
  • costs and fees

accounting, VAT filings and VAT reverse charge

  • PayPal and Stripe CSV (“Vorlauf”)
  • AWS Z4 filings
  • monthly VAT filings and 1/11 prepayments
  • adding Deel and capital investment statements
  • unwarranted withdrawals

Which one shall I write about next? Let me know! :wink:
