BOIR Portal User Guide

Quick BOIR Overview:

The FinCEN Beneficial Ownership Information requirement, part of the Corporate Transparency Act effective January 2024, mandates businesses to report their beneficial ownership by January 2025 to combat illicit activities and ensure compliance. This aims to improve federal oversight, prevent money laundering, and promote fair business pratices. If a business does not submit a BOIR, they may be subject to penalties.
