Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting
Starting January 1, 2024, many companies will be required to report information to the U.S. government about who ultimately owns and controls them.
Alert: FinCEN has been notified of recent fraudulent attempts to solicit information from individuals and entities who may be subject to reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act. The fraudulent correspondence may be titled "Important Compliance Notice" and asks the recipient to click on a URL or to scan a QR code. Those e-mails or letters are fraudulent. FinCEN does not send unsolicited requests. Please do not respond to these fraudulent messages, or click on any links or scan any QR codes within them.
For concerns related to the implementation of the Corporate Transparency Act, please contact the Office of the Inspector General.
