My company is formed in the UK and registered in New York. Does that still make me a BOI filer even though domestic LLCs are exempt now?
I am a UK resident and my business is a UK company that registered to do business in New York instead of forming a new U.S. LLC. After the 2025 BOI rule changes, I got confused because everyone now talks about domestic companies being exempt. That made me wonder whether foreign companies like mine were exempt too.
I do not want to assume the domestic exemption applies to me if it really only helps U.S.-formed entities. Is a foreign company registered in a U.S. state still in the BOI bucket?
