From when does the reporting obligation to the transparency register apply under the Transparency Act (TJPG)?
Antwort
The reporting obligation to the transparency register generally arises upon the entry into force of the Transparency Act (TJPG). From that date, obliged legal entities must identify, document and report their beneficial owners to the transparency register within the statutory deadlines. The obligation arises automatically by operation of law and does not depend on a prior request by the authorities.
