The Ministry of Financial Services advises on the Annual Return filing fees for both mutual and private funds. It is confirmed that, for funds with financial years ending on or before 31 December 2025, the annual return filing fees remain payable in respect of those financial years.
The restructuring of the fee regime was intended to consolidate the annual fee and annual return filing fee into a single annual payment from 2026, and was not intended to remove or waive filing fees payable in respect of earlier financial years.
For completeness and avoidance of doubt, the Government therefore intends to introduce legislation to validate the charging, collection and payment of annual return filing fees payable in respect of the relevant financial years ending on or before 31 December 2025.
Mutual funds and private funds are encouraged to continue submitting any outstanding annual returns and paying the applicable filing fees in accordance with the requirements of the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority.
It is requested that any questions regarding annual returns are directed to [email protected], and any inquiries relating to the payment of filing fees to [email protected].
