I thought there were exceptions for travelers.

I recall something about thresholds, but I can't remember if it was $10,000 or $16,000. I guess I should go with True just to be safe.

This reminds me of a practice question where someone had to declare cash at the border. I think it was similar, so I'm leaning towards True.
TA

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like there might be exceptions depending on the specific regulations of Country B.
RE

I think the answer is True because I remember that countries have to report large amounts of cash to prevent money laundering.
RO

This is a tricky one. I'm not sure if the FATF Recommendations override Country B's reporting threshold or not. I'll have to review the details again and make sure I understand the relationship between the two.

Okay, I think I've got it. Since Trevor is traveling from Country A to Country B, and Country B has a reporting threshold, he has to disclose the full $16,000 he's carrying. The FATF Recommendations just mean the countries have similar policies, not that he can avoid disclosing.

This seems pretty straightforward. Trevor is carrying more cash than the reporting threshold in Country B, so he would need to disclose the full $16,000 amount.
AR

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. Does the fact that both countries follow the FATF Recommendations mean Trevor doesn't have to disclose the full amount? I'll have to think this through carefully.

Tricky wording on this one. I'll need to read it a few times to make sure I understand what they're asking.

Duh, the answer is True. Trevor should have just used his credit card instead of lugging around all that cash. That's a rookie mistake right there.
