On February 18, 2025, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas granted a stay order on its previously issued preliminary nationwide injunction pausing the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). As a result, non-exempt reporting companies are once again subject to beneficial ownership reporting requirements.

The U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has issued new guidance in light of the order:

1. For most reporting companies, the new deadline to file an initial, updated, and/or corrected BOI report is now March 21, 2025.

2. Reporting companies formed or registered on or after February 18, 2025, must file within 30 days from the date of creation or registration.
