Intro

The New York LLC Transparency Act (NYLTA) goes into effect on January 1, 2026, requiring all LLCs in Hempstead and across Nassau County to report beneficial ownership information.

This law aims to strengthen business transparency statewide, and early preparation will help Hempstead businesses avoid compliance issues once the filing deadline arrives.

All LLCs that are:

• Formed in New York

• Operating in New York

This includes businesses headquartered or operating in Hempstead Village, Uniondale, East Meadow, Garden City, and surrounding areas.
