Cayman Islands Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Cayman Islands company register data feeds into a centralised beneficial ownership register under the Beneficial Ownership Transparency Act 2023 (BOTA), in force since 31 July 2024, filed monthly by licensed Corporate Service Providers. No one can search it by entity name; access runs through three tiers, against a 25% ownership, control, or Senior Managing Official threshold. Exempted Limited Partnerships and CIMA-registered funds entered scope in 2024, though registered funds may nominate a Contact Person instead of a standing filing; standalone trusts and Registered Foreign Companies stay out of scope. BOTA data verifies in-scope entities directly via Legitimate Interest Access, while entities sitting beneath a transparent jurisdiction resolve through that upstream register instead.
