Every new company must report within 14 days who actually controls it. How to do this with a foreign owner.
The Central Register of Beneficial Owners (CRBR) collects data on the natural persons who control a company. The report is filed electronically by a board member within 14 days of entry in the KRS.
- with a foreign parent company, the persons at the end of the ownership chain must be identified
- every change of ownership requires an update within 14 days
- failure to report may result in a financial penalty
We file the report in every company formation package.
