March 4, 2025·By Carole McKenzie·March 2025 FloridAgriculture eNewsletter

A decision from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas on February 18, 2025, has reinstated the filing requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) for Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI).

Agricultural businesses and farm operations that are structured as LLCs, corporations, or other registered entities may be subject to these filing requirements. Farm Bureau members are encouraged to consult with their legal or financial advisors to determine whether their operation is required to file.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) administers the BOI reporting requirements. For the most current filing deadlines and exemptions, visit the FinCEN website or contact your local Farm Bureau office for guidance.
