Quick Answer

Does My U.S.-Formed Business Have to File Beneficial Ownership Information With FinCEN?

No, under the current FinCEN rule. As of September 1, 2026, U.S.-formed companies are exempt from federal Beneficial Ownership Information, or BOI, reporting requirements. FinCEN's final rule issued August 11, 2026 permanently removed the BOI reporting requirement for U.S. companies and U.S. persons. Certain entities formed under foreign-country law and registered to do business in the United States remain subject to BOI requirements.
