Beneficial Ownership Compliance Notice

The Business Registration Service (BRS) has issued a Beneficial Ownership Compliance Notice targeting private companies that have failed to comply with Directive No. 1 of 2024, issued under Section 93A of the Companies Act, Cap 486.

This directive requires all companies registered in Kenya to file a copy of their register of beneficial owners with the Registrar of Companies. Companies that remain non-compliant within 30 days of receiving the official notice risk being struck off the Register of Companies..

This compliance initiative underscores the government’s ongoing efforts to enhance transparency, combat money laundering, and promote corporate accountability through the disclosure of beneficial ownership in Kenya.
