Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting Requirements Now in Effect with Extended Deadlines
SAN JOSE, CA, UNITED STATES, December 24, 2024 /
EINPresswire.com/ -- The
Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting (BOIR) requirements are now officially in effect, following a federal Court of Appeals decision on December 23, 2024. Reporting companies are mandated to file Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) with FinCEN, with revised deadlines to ensure compliance.
Previously, a preliminary injunction issued by the District Court for the Eastern District of Texas temporarily paused the BOI reporting mandate. However, the Department of Justice, representing the Department of the Treasury, filed a Notice of Appeal on December 5, 2024, and successfully requested a stay of the injunction.

The new deadline to file initial BOI reports with FinCEN is extended to January 13, 2025.
2. Companies created or registered in the US on or after September 4, 2024, with original filing deadlines between December 3 and December 23, 2024:
The deadline to file initial BOI reports with FinCEN is also extended to January 13, 2025.
3. Companies created or registered in the U.S. between December 3, 2024, and December 23, 2024:
New deadline: 21 days after the original
filing deadline.
4. Companies created or registered in the United States on or after January 1, 2025:
Filing Deadline: 30 days from the date of creation or registration
Note: Companies qualifying for disaster relief may have deadlines extending beyond January 13, 2025.

Under the Corporate Transparency Act, willful violations of BOI reporting requirements may result in:
🎯Civil Penalties: Up to $500 per day for each day the violation continues, adjusted annually for inflation.
