The Central Register of Beneficial Ownership (RBO) online portal opened in July and the original deadline of 22nd November 2019 applied for Irish companies incorporated before 22 June 2019 to file their beneficial ownership information in order to comply with the recently implemented 4th AML Directive.
A process has been developed to enable beneficial owners who do not currently have an Irish PPS Number to file with the RBO. Full details were provided in a specific FAQ on the RBO website – www.rbo.gov.ie.
Entities incorporated after 22 June 2019 must report to the RBO within 5 months of the date of incorporation. Reporting must be made online via the RBO website.
