BOI reporting in Kansas
Under FinCEN's March 26, 2025 interim final rule, BOI reporting requirements changed significantly for Kansas businesses. Kansas-formed LLCs and corporations are exempt. Only foreign-formed entities registered to do business in Kansas must file BOI with FinCEN.
Most US entities are exempt from BOI under the 2025 interim final rule.
If you formed your business in Kansas (LLC, corporation, nonprofit), you no longer need to file BOI under the current interim rule.
The interim final rule from FinCEN, effective March 26, 2025:
- Removed BOI reporting for "domestic reporting companies" · entities formed in any US state including Kansas.
- Maintained BOI requirements only for foreign-formed entities registered to do business in any US state.
- Excluded US persons from being reported as beneficial owners by any entity.
Kansas-formed entities: no BOI filing required
If your LLC, corporation, or nonprofit was formed in Kansas by filing Articles of Organization or Articles of Incorporation with the Kansas Secretary of State, you are exempt from federal BOI reporting under the current interim rule.
Kansas does not have a state-level beneficial ownership law as of 2026. Federal BOI under the FinCEN interim rule is the only beneficial ownership filing currently applicable in Kansas.
Foreign-formed entities operating in Kansas: must file
If your entity was formed under the laws of another country (UK Ltd, Canadian Inc, Singapore Pte Ltd, etc.) and you registered to do business in Kansas via foreign qualification, BOI filing is required:
- Deadline: 30 calendar days from the effective date of Kansas foreign qualification.
- What to file: Beneficial owner information for each non-US person beneficial owner. US persons are NOT reported.
- Where to file: FinCEN BOSS at boiefiling.fincen.gov (free).
- Penalty for non-filing: Up to $591/day in civil penalties, plus criminal penalties up to $10,000 + 2 years imprisonment.
