PA ANNUAL REPORTING
frequently asked questions
The Pennsylvania Annual Reporting Requirements.
Are the PA Annual Report and the CTA/BOI reporting the same?
No. The Pennsylvania annual report is required by state law. The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report is required by federal law.
The annual report is filed with the Pennsylvania Department of State (DOS), while the BOI report is filed with the U.S. Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
Although both filings provide information about businesses, the entities required to file and the information within the reports are quite different. Any federal court cases relating to the CTA BOI do not affect the Pennsylvania annual reporting requirement.

The annual report filing is required for:
Domestic business corporations
Domestic nonprofit corporations
