[^1]\n\nDomestic 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]\n\nThe Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) rule took effect on August 14 under the Corporate Transparency Act. [^3]\n\nThe law had required covered companies to provide FinCEN information on their beneficial owners, including names, dates of birth, and addresses. [^4]\n\nThe new regulation takes effect on August 14, 2026, clarifying and slightly narrowing the scope of companies required to report beneficial ownership information. [^5]\n\nThe rule modifies reporting obligations under the 2021 Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) specifically for domestic aircraft LLCs. [^6]",
