A “FinCEN identifier” or “FinCEN ID” is a unique identifying number issued to an individual or an entity by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. The Corporate Transparency Act, the law that requires certain types of U.S. and foreign entities to report beneficial ownership information to FinCEN, requires FinCEN to issue a FinCEN ID when an individual or entity requests one by submitting the required information. FinCEN IDs can be reported on Beneficial Ownership Information Reports (BOIRs) submitted to FinCEN.
