The U.S. Treasury Department finalized a rule eliminating beneficial-ownership reporting requirements for U.S. companies, including many LLCs and other entities used to own aircraft. [^1]

Domestic companies and U.S. persons are now exempt from the reporting requirement, and FinCEN says it will delete previously submitted information that it reasonably believes belongs to U.S. persons. [^2]

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) rule took effect on August 14 under the Corporate Transparency Act. [^3]

The law had required covered companies to provide FinCEN information on their beneficial owners, including names, dates of birth, and addresses. [^4]

The new regulation takes effect on August 14, 2026, clarifying and slightly narrowing the scope of companies required to report beneficial ownership information. [^5]

The rule modifies reporting obligations under the 2021 Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) specifically for domestic aircraft LLCs. [^6]
