FinCEN BOI Report
Filing Service
Ensure compliance with the Corporate Transparency Act. Let us handle your mandatory federal Beneficial Ownership filing before the 90-day deadline expires.
What is the BOI Report?
Enacted by the US Congress, the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) mandates that all small businesses (including LLCs and Corporations) disclose their 'Beneficial Owners' to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the US Treasury.
A beneficial owner is any individual who owns at least 25% of the company or exercises substantial control over it. This applies strictly to foreign owners of US LLCs as well. The goal is to prevent financial crimes, but the burden of filing falls squarely on the business owner.
Strict Deadlines
- **New Companies:** Must file within 90 days of receiving formation confirmation.
- **Updates:** Must file within 30 days if any owner information changes (e.g., new passport).
- **No Exceptions:** Missing these deadlines triggers automatic severe penalties.
The Cost of Ignoring the CTA
The federal government is enforcing this new law with unprecedented severity. Ignorance of the law is not an accepted defense.
$500 Daily Fines
Civil penalties accrue at $500 for every single day the report is late, up to a maximum of $10,000. Just being 20 days late costs $10,000.
Criminal Liability
Willful failure to report, or willfully providing false information, can result in criminal penalties including up to two years of federal imprisonment.
Data Rejection
FinCEN requires exact formatting for foreign addresses and ID uploads. Simple formatting errors can cause rejections, eating up your 90-day grace period.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Report is a mandatory federal filing under the Corporate Transparency Act. It requires companies to disclose the individuals who ultimately own or control the business to FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network).
Almost all LLCs, Corporations, and other entities created by filing a document with a Secretary of State in the US must file, including companies owned entirely by non-US residents.
For companies formed in 2024 or later, the report must be filed within 90 days of formation. For companies formed before 2024, the deadline was January 1, 2025.
Failing to file on time or providing false information can result in severe civil penalties of $500 per day (up to $10,000) and criminal penalties including up to 2 years in prison.
A beneficial owner is any individual who, directly or indirectly, exercises 'substantial control' over the reporting company or owns/controls at least 25% of its ownership interests.
You must provide the company's legal name, EIN, and address, along with each beneficial owner's full legal name, date of birth, residential address, and an image of an identifying document (like a Passport).
No. The BOI database is strictly confidential and not accessible to the general public. FinCEN only shares it with authorized government agencies for law enforcement and national security purposes.
