自2026年4月1日起,英属维尔京群岛(BVI)将实施“合法权益”框架,用于获取实益拥有权信息。
此次立法修订旨在确保BVI继续保持领先且合规的司法管辖区地位,同时保护个人隐私。仅具备正当及具体事由(例如调查或预防金融犯罪)的相关方能够查询实益拥有权(beneficial ownership,以下简称“BO”)信息,即信息披露仅在必要范围内进行。
BO资料的查阅权限现已不再仅限于特定主管机关及执法部门,而是扩展至其他能够向BVI注册处证明其对查阅该等资料具有“合法权益”的人士。
然而,尽管申请披露资料的权利范围已得到扩大,但值得注意的是,新规同时允许实益拥有人基于安全顾虑或其他敏感因素等原因,申请长期豁免披露(standing exemption),或就个别查阅申请提出反对,以保障其自身权益。申请豁免或提出反对的相关理由,将于下文进一步说明。
如通过在线门户(VIRRGIN)申请查阅资料,申请人必须证明其具有相关权益,并提供可信证据证明该申请旨在调查洗钱、恐怖主义融资活动,或履行反洗钱 / 客户尽职调查(AML/KYC)监管义务。申请人还须就每次申请缴付75美元不可退还的查册费。
虽然实体以10%持股比例的门槛申报BO资料,但披露范围仅限于持有25%或以上权益的实益拥有人。
BVI的制度包含了完善的制衡机制,避免个人信息被不当披露。当注册处收到有效请求时,将通知该实体的注册代理。
反对:相关实体可在五个工作日内向注册处提交“反对通知”。有效理由包括:有合理理由认为,披露BO信息可能使实益拥有人面临欺诈、绑架、暴力、恐吓等严重风险。
上诉:如果注册处在有异议的情况下仍准予披露,实体可在三个工作日内提交“上诉意向通知”。该提交将自动中止披露,直至注册处完成复核。
上诉委员会:必须在21日内向注册处提交正式申诉。以确保查询方的合法权益确实高于个人可能遭受的严重损害。
自2026年1月2日起,实体可以申请预先豁免,确保在第三方提出申请前保护其隐私。可申请豁免的理由包括:
如果您对“合法权益”制度有任何疑问,或需要协助申请预先豁免,请联系您惯常的奥杰联络人或以下团队成员。
