What Is FinCEN BOI Reporting?

FinCEN Beneficial Ownership Information reporting is a mandatory NEW business filing requiring most U.S. companies to submit their beneficial ownership information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) division of the US Department of Treasury in 2024. This requirement comes from a new law called the Corporate Transparency Act that was passed to enhance the US government's efforts to combat money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. This reporting requirement started in 2024 and it is enforced by potential penalties including fines of $500 per day up to $10,000.

 

Who Is Affected? 

Entities required to report under this regulation include corporations, limited liability companies, s-corps, LLPs, and other entities created by filing a document with any U.S. State. The majority of for-profit business entities will be required to file this report unless they qualify for an exemption. You can find out if you have an exemption easily on this page.
