Who fills it in
Every member of the board of directors of an applicant or authorised CIF, including the persons who effectively direct the business, each filling in their own questionnaire. Qualifying shareholders use their own questionnaires (87-00-12 for a natural person, 87-00-13 for a legal person, 87-00-14 for a trust).

Common mistakes
- One questionnaire for several directors: each board member completes their own.
- Filing without form FnP-00-001 or the Part G documents.
- Editing the questions or leaving them blank instead of N/A.
- Leaving out facts because they are public: CySEC does not treat public information as known unless you give it.
