TRANSCRIPTION
Hello from Freedom Group. Today is March 3rd, 2025, and we have good news for small business owners in the USA. The U.S. Department of the Treasury and President Donald Trump have officially said that the FinCEN BOI report is dead, that you do not need to file it.
Let’s go to the news. This is directly from the U.S. Department of the Treasury website, where they made a press release yesterday, as you can see, March 2nd, 2025, basically saying that they are suspending the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act, which is the law that enforces the FinCEN BOI report. Now, this press release also says that they’re not going to eliminate this BOI report, but they’re going to change the rules for it, but it’s going to be enforced for foreign reporting companies only.
So this makes sense that this BOI report is now only going to be enforced, apparently, for foreign entities or maybe U.S. companies that are owned by foreigners. So we need to see when the new rules come out for the BOI, but for U.S. citizens and domestic reporting companies, basically, if your business is a U.S.-based business, you do not have to file the BOI report because they will not enforce it. And even Donald Trump said it, as you can see here, saying exciting news that you no longer need to do the BOI report.
Now, even though this is good news for many small business owners, we still need to see what’s going to happen because there’s still a case in the courts, and the Supreme Court still hasn’t decided what they’re going to do with this law because the U.S. Department of the Treasury, they need to follow the laws. But I’m pretty sure something is going to be worked out with the Trump administration so that U.S. business owners don’t have to file this report, and most likely only foreign entities and maybe foreign owners will need to file the FinCEN BOI report. So this is good news.
We hope that this is the end in this saga that has been going on since the beginning of December, that you had to file, then you didn’t have to file, then you had to file, but apparently now it’s official. If you are a U.S. citizen and have a domestic U.S. entity, FinCEN will not enforce or make you file the FinCEN BOI report. So that’s the news.

Summarization
The FINCEN BOI Report Suspension has been officially confirmed by former President Donald Trump and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. This decision marks a significant shift in compliance requirements for U.S. business owners. As of March 2, 2025, the U.S. Treasury announced that enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act, which mandates the BOI report, has been suspended. This update provides relief for domestic businesses that were previously required to file, while still maintaining certain reporting obligations for foreign entities.
Over 32 million small businesses in the U.S. would have been impacted by the BOI reporting requirements before the suspension.
What Does the FINCEN BOI Report Suspension Mean?
The Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report was introduced to prevent financial crimes and improve transparency in business ownership. However, its implementation has been met with challenges, particularly from small business owners. The U.S. Treasury’s recent announcement clarifies that domestic businesses are no longer required to file the BOI report. Instead, enforcement will focus on foreign entities or companies with significant foreign ownership.
Trump’s Announcement and Its Impact
Former President Donald Trump publicly confirmed the FINCEN BOI Report Suspension, emphasizing that U.S. businesses will not have to worry about filing these reports. The Treasury’s decision aligns with ongoing legal challenges questioning the Corporate Transparency Act’s reach and the burden it placed on small business owners. Trump’s statement reinforces the idea that compliance should not come at the cost of unnecessary regulatory burdens.
Who Still Needs to File the BOI Report?
While most domestic businesses are now exempt, some entities must still comply. The Treasury Department’s statement suggests that foreign reporting companies or businesses with foreign ownership stakes will still be required to submit the BOI report. New guidelines will be issued soon to clarify who falls under this revised reporting requirement.
Why Was the BOI Report Suspended?
The decision to suspend enforcement was influenced by several factors:
- Legal Challenges: The Corporate Transparency Act faced multiple lawsuits questioning its constitutionality and enforcement mechanisms.
- Small Business Backlash: Many small business owners argued that the BOI reporting requirements were overly complicated and burdensome.
- Regulatory Adjustments: The U.S. Treasury and Trump administration are working to streamline compliance requirements, focusing on financial crime prevention without excessive red tape.
What Business Owners Should Do Now
Since the FINCEN BOI Report Suspension is now in effect, business owners should take the following steps:
- Stay Informed: Monitor updates from the U.S. Treasury for further clarifications on reporting requirements for foreign entities.
- Consult a Professional: If your business has foreign ownership, consult with a tax or legal expert to determine if compliance is still necessary.
- Maintain Business Records: Even without BOI reporting, businesses should continue keeping accurate ownership and financial records.
Looking Ahead: What’s Next for BOI Reporting?
While the suspension is a major change, the BOI report has not been entirely eliminated. The Treasury Department is expected to issue new regulations focusing solely on foreign entities and their reporting obligations. Business owners should remain updated on any new guidelines that may emerge.
Final Thoughts
The FINCEN BOI Report Suspension brings relief to U.S.-based businesses that were previously required to comply with complex regulations. While the Treasury and Trump administration have confirmed the suspension, foreign reporting entities should stay alert for further updates. For business owners unsure of their compliance status, consulting a tax professional remains the best course of action.
