BUSINESS & TRANSACTIONS / GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS

Corporate Transparency Act, Part 2: Exempt Status, Physical Office, Dissolved and Tribal Entities, and Beneficial Ownership Information, PilieroMazza Client Alert, Meghan F. LeemonAbigail “Abby” L. BakerCole R. Fox

The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), which came into effect on January 1, 2024, has significant implications for government contractors, tribal entities, and commercial businesses. If you formed an entity before January 1, 2024, and are not subject to one of the exemptions, you must file your initial Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR) no later than January 1, 2025.  If you formed an entity on or after January 1, 2024, and are not subject to one of the exemptions, you must file your initial BOIR within ninety (90) days from the effective date of creation or registration of the entity. If you form an entity on or after January 1, 2025, and are not subject to one of the exemptions, you must file your initial BOIR within thirty (30) days from the effective date of creation or registration of the entity.

To help businesses comply with and avoid harsh enforcement penalties, this client alert summarizes recent developments in the CTA—including filing requirements after losing exempt status under the CTA, physical office and tax return requirements for the large operating company exemption, reporting requirements for dissolved entities, the CTA’s applicability to tribal entities, and outside access to the BOIR.
