The calendar has turned to 2024, meaning many small businesses, private companies, and other entities are now required to file their beneficial ownership information (BOI) with the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), enacted by Congress in 2021, requires reporting companies—both foreign and domestic—that file incorporation paperwork with secretaries of state or tribal authorities to also file BOI with FinCEN. The agency estimated more than 32 million reporting companies will be required to report their BOI to the registry in 2024.
