This revenue procedure supplements the listing in Revenue Procedure 2014–64, 2014–53 I.R.B. 1022, as previously supplemented by Rev.

Sections 1.6049–4(b)(5) and 1.6049–8(a), as revised by TD 9584, require the reporting of certain deposit interest paid to nonresident alien individuals on or after January 1, 2013. Rev.

Section 4 of that revenue procedure identified the countries with which the Treasury Department and the IRS had determined that it was appropriate to have an automatic exchange relationship with respect to the information collected under §§ 1.6049–4(b)(5) and 1.6049–8. Rev. Proc. 2012–24 was updated and superseded by Rev. Proc. 2014–64, Section 4 of which contained an updated list of countries with which an automatic exchange relationship had been determined appropriate. Rev. Proc. 2014–64 was supplemented by Rev. Proc. 2015–50, which added 16 countries to that list. This revenue procedure further supplements Rev. Proc. 2014–64 by adding three countries (Azerbaijan, Jamaica, and the Slovak Republic) to the list of countries in Section 4 of Rev. Proc. 2014–64.
