The big news: if the plan was to dissolve the company before 2025, you must register!

If an entity was created by filing with a secretary of state, BOIR must be filed unless the entity completed the process of formally and irrevocably dissolving before January 1, 2024.

By “formally and irrevocably dissolving,” FinCEN means “filing dissolution paperwork with its jurisdiction of creation or registration, receiving written confirmation of dissolution, paying related taxes or fees, ceasing to conduct any business, and winding up its affairs (e.g., fully liquidating itself and closing all bank accounts).”
