NEW FEDERAL REPORTING REQUIREMENT FOR BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INFORMATION (BOI)

Effective January 1, 2024, many companies in the United States must report information about their beneficial owners, the individuals who ultimately own or control the company, to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

A company created or registered to do business before January 1, 2024, will have until January 1, 2025 to file its initial beneficial ownership information (BOI) report. A company created or registered on or after January 1, 2024, and before January 1, 2025, will have 90 calendar days to file its initial BOI report. A company created or registered on or after January 1, 2025, will have 30 calendar days to file their initial BOI report.

There is no annual reporting requirement. If there is any change to the required information about the company or its beneficial owners in a BOI report that the company filed, the company must file an updated report no later than 30 days after the date of the change.

Please be advised that a person who willfully violates the BOI reporting requirements may be subject to civil penalties of up to $500 for each day that the violation continues. That person may also be subject to criminal penalties of up to two years imprisonment and a fine of up to $10,000.
