An enhanced version of the regulations governing the Register of Beneficial Owner ("RBO") is now available on our website. It comprises the original French version of the Luxembourg Law of 13 January 2019 creating an RBO and the Grand-Ducal Regulation of 15 February 2019 on the arrangements regarding registration and payment of administrative costs as well as the access to the information registered in the RBO, together with an English translation.

For ease of reference, some relevant sections of the Luxembourg Law of 12 November 2004 on the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing, and of the Law of 19 December 2002 on inter alia the register of commerce have been inserted in both language versions, i.e. English and French.
