Beneficial Ownership Information report filed with FinCEN on your behalf. Required for foreign reporting companies; domestic reporting companies currently exempt under the March 21, 2025 IFR. By Alif Al Razi, Tax & Compliance Lead at Anonymousllc.co.
Foreign reporting companies (non-US-formed entities registered to do business in the US — still obligated under the March 2025 IFR). Domestic reporting companies wanting voluntary filings for compliance posture. Existing LLC owners whose ownership has changed and need an update filed within 30 days. Owners with complex structures (multi-tier holding, foreign beneficial owners, trust-owned LLCs) who'd rather not navigate the FinCEN portal themselves.
BOI — Beneficial Ownership Information — is the federal disclosure regime established by the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA, 31 U.S.C. § 5336) and administered by FinCEN through the secure portal at boiefiling.fincen.gov. The CTA was enacted in 2021 as part of the Anti-Money Laundering Act and went into effect January 1, 2024. The original rule required every "reporting company" — broadly defined to include most US LLCs and corporations — to disclose its beneficial owners (anyone with 25%+ ownership or substantial control) and, for entities formed after January 1, 2024, its company applicants. The disclosure goes into a non-public FinCEN database accessible to specified federal and state agencies under defined access protocols.
The March 21, 2025 FinCEN interim final rule fundamentally changed the landscape. The IFR removed BOI reporting obligations for "domestic reporting companies" — entities formed in any US state, DC, or tribal jurisdiction — and removed US persons from the beneficial-owner disclosure requirements for foreign reporting companies. The IFR preserved the BOI obligation for "foreign reporting companies" (entities formed under non-US law that register to do business in the US). The result is that the vast majority of US LLCs are currently exempt from BOI filing, including Wyoming, Delaware, NM, and Nevada anonymous LLCs owned by non-residents. The regulatory landscape remains volatile — court challenges, future rulemaking, and possible congressional action could expand or contract the obligation through 2026-2027. We maintain /boi/status-tracker/ as a living document covering current status, but the short version for most readers in 2026: if you have a US-formed LLC, you almost certainly do NOT need to file BOI right now.
Three scenarios still warrant the $150 BOI filing service. First: foreign reporting companies — if you have a non-US-formed entity (UK Ltd, German GmbH, Singapore Pte Ltd, etc.) that has registered to do business in any US state, you remain obligated to file. Second: voluntary filings for compliance posture — some financial institutions, banking partners, and counterparties request BOI filing confirmation as part of their due diligence, even for exempt entities. Third: BOI update filings — even for entities currently exempt under the IFR, prior filings under the original rule may have been made and may require corrections or updates. Each of these scenarios is handled at $150 per filing. For the broad domestic-LLC population currently exempt, we tell buyers to save their money and check our /boi/status-tracker/ before filing voluntarily.

The intake is short. Five minutes, maybe ten. Below is exactly what we'll ask and why we need each piece.
Before FinCEN submission: 100% refund minus Stripe processing fees. Cancel before we submit the BOI report.
After FinCEN submission: No refund — the filing is complete and you have the FinCEN reference number.
If you turn out to be exempt and we filed anyway: Filing remains valid (no harm in filing while exempt) — no refund. If we incorrectly advised filing when you were obviously exempt, we refund $100 of the $150.
If FinCEN rejects the filing: Rare — typically only when BO info is incomplete or ID document fails review. We resubmit at no extra charge.
