The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) requires many U.S. entities and foreign entities registered to do business in the U.S. to file a beneficial ownership information report (BOIR) with the federal government.
The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network estimates over 30 million entities must file an initial report by January 1, 2025, but many businesses are not prepared due to unfamiliarity with the requirement or misconceptions about the CTA’s criteria.
