4/10/2004 USA PATRIOT Act Monitor News Release: FinCEN
Proposes Two Currency Transportation Forms
The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, continuing its program of redesigning
BSA reporting forms, now proposes to split FinCEN Form 105: Report of International
Transportation of Currency or Monetary Instruments into two separate forms:
FinCEN Form 105: Report Of International Transportation of Currency or Monetary
Instruments - Accompanied By An Individual, and Form 106: Report Of An International
Transportation Of Currency Or Monetary Instruments - Shipment, Mailing, or Receipt.
The proposed Form 105 contains new items for the individual's occupation and
telephone number, and asks the reason for transporting the currency or monetary
instruments. Form 106 includes new items asking for the telephone number of
the sender and the reason for the shipment. FinCEN is requesting comments, by
June 8, 2004, on the agency's estimate of the burden of collecting the information
(15 minutes per form), and ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the forms. (See 69 Fed. Reg. 18999, April 9, 2004.)
