Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: The estimated change in total reporting burden hours, for PRA purposes on a going-forward basis, is a reduction from the previous ICR summary of burden by approximately 53 million burden hours per year, on average, rounded to the nearest million. The burden estimate has decreased due to the IFR narrowing the Reporting Rule’s BOI reporting requirement where domestic entities previously defined as “domestic reporting companies” are excluded, and foreign entities are no longer required to report the BOI of any U.S. persons who are beneficial owners of a foreign reporting company. The IFR has substantially decreased the scope and number of reporting companies, particularly with respect to domestic and foreign entities previously subject to the Reporting Rule. The estimated change in total reporting cost is a reduction by approximately $9 billion dollars per year, on average, rounded to the nearest billion. The estimated annual cost to the Federal government is expected to decrease by approximately $8 million.
