Foreign Agents Registration Act

Summary

Attorneys representing foreign principals may be exempt from FARA if their work is strictly for legal proceedings, non-political, or related to official duties of a foreign government. The British Accreditation Registry is not an official entity in the U.S. Legal system, and FARA registration would be necessary if it acts as an agent for a foreign principal in political activities. Verify any claims of such registration through official channels.

is BAR ( British Accreditation Registry ) registered as a foreign agent ?
Hey ****! The British Accreditation Registry (BAR) is not an official legal entity or established registry in the context of the U.S. legal system. FARA registration would be required if it acts as an agent for a foreign principal in political or public relations activities, rather than legal accreditation. It's important to verify any claims of such registration through official channels. If you have more questions, feel free to ask!
