Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Requirements | 12/31/24 Filing Deadline

Nov 14, 2024, 09:19 by Jennifer Mason
The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) went into effect Jan. 1, 2024. The Act requires that legal entities formed and operated in the United States provide identifying information (including the name, birthdate, physical address and a photo from a driver’s license or passport) for each beneficial owner or person with control. The information will go into a national registry controlled by FinCEN, a bureau of the U.S. Department of Treasury, and will be available to law enforcement agencies for their use in detecting illegal activity. State Bar General Counsel Paula Frederick previewed the Act in her Oct. 2023 Georgia Bar Journal article, “Transparency Is Coming.” 

Please note that there is a Dec. 31, 2024, filing deadline for entities already in existence by Jan. 1, 2024.
