Update from Spidell regarding the Corporate Transparency Act
BOI reporting requirement canceled for most businesses (03-03-25)
On Sunday, March 2, 2025, FinCEN continued with its rollercoaster guidance by announcing that it will not enforce any penalties or fines associated with the beneficial ownership information (BOI) reporting rules under existing regulations. Additionally, FinCEN will not enforce any penalties or fines against U.S. citizens or domestic reporting companies, or their beneficial owners.
The reason for the relief is that the Department of the Treasury will propose new rulemaking that will narrow the scope of the beneficial owner reporting rules to apply to foreign reporting companies only. This means that domestic entities will not be required to file any BOI reports.
At this time there is no information on what, if anything, will need to be done for domestic entities that have already filed. We will continue to update you as information is released on this issue.
The full text of the Treasury press release is available here.
