We remind all registered entities that have already recorded their beneficial owners in the Central Records of Beneficial Owners under the previously applicable regulations that they are required to comply with the provisions of the new Law on the Central Records of Beneficial Owners (“Official Gazette of the RS”, Nos. 19/2025, 51/2025, and 60/2025 – correction) within 60 days from the date this Law enters into force, i.e. no later than 1 December 2025.
According to Article 8 of the Law on the Central Records of Beneficial Owners, when determining the beneficial owners, it is also required to upload the documents based on which the beneficial owner was determined. Therefore, all the above-mentioned existing registered entities must once again go through all the criteria for determining the beneficial owner as set out in Article 3 of the Law, determine and record or confirm the registered beneficial owner, and at the same time upload the documents based on which they determined or confirmed a given person as the beneficial owner.
More detailed information on the procedure for compliance with the new Law on the Central Records of Beneficial Owners is published on the webpage Central Records of Beneficial Owners, where it is also possible to access the search function for data on registered beneficial owners and the list of registered entities that have not recorded their beneficial owners.
