# Art. 24 — Reporting of discrepancies with information contained in beneficial ownership registers

AMLR Article 24 — Reporting of discrepancies with information contained in beneficial ownership registers. Regulation (EU) 2024/1624, Chapter III — Customer due diligence.

1. Obliged entities shall report to the central registers any discrepancies they find between the information available in the central registers and the information they collect pursuant to [Article 20(1)](/amlr/chapter-iii-customer-due-diligence-art.-19-50/20.md), point (b), and [Article 22(7)](/amlr/chapter-iii-customer-due-diligence-art.-19-50/22.md).

   The discrepancies referred to in the first subparagraph shall be reported without undue delay and, in any case, within 14 calendar days of their detection. When reporting such discrepancies, obliged entities shall accompany their reports with information they have obtained indicating the discrepancy and whom they consider to be the beneficial owners and, where applicable, the nominee shareholders and nominee directors to be and why.
2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, obliged entities may refrain from reporting discrepancies to the central register and may instead request additional information from the customers where the discrepancies identified:

   1. are limited to typographical errors, different ways of transliteration, or minor inaccuracies that do not affect the identification of the beneficial owners or their position; or
   2. are a result of outdated data, but the beneficial owners are known to the obliged entity from another reliable source and there are no grounds for suspicion that there is an intention to conceal any information.

   Where an obliged entity concludes that the beneficial ownership information in the central register is incorrect, it shall invite the customer to submit the correct information to the central register pursuant to [Articles 63](/amlr/chapter-iv-beneficial-ownership-transparency-art.-51-68/63.md), [64](/amlr/chapter-iv-beneficial-ownership-transparency-art.-51-68/64.md) and [67](/amlr/chapter-iv-beneficial-ownership-transparency-art.-51-68/67.md) without undue delay, and, in any case, within 14 calendar days.

   This paragraph shall not apply to cases of higher risk to which measures under Section 4 of this Chapter apply.
3. Where a customer has not submitted the correct information within the deadline referred to in paragraph 2, second subparagraph, the obliged entity shall report the discrepancy to the central register in accordance with paragraph 1, second subparagraph.
4. This Article shall not apply to notaries, lawyers, other independent legal professionals, auditors, external accountants and tax advisors in relation to information they receive from, or obtain on, a client, in the course of ascertaining the legal position of that client, or performing their task of defending or representing that client in, or concerning, judicial proceedings, including providing advice on instituting or avoiding such proceedings, regardless of whether such information is received or obtained before, during or after such proceedings.

   However, the requirements of this Article shall apply when the obliged entities referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph provide legal advice in any of the situations covered by [Article 21(2)](/amlr/chapter-iii-customer-due-diligence-art.-19-50/21.md), second subparagraph.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.mica.wtf/amlr/chapter-iii-customer-due-diligence-art.-19-50/24.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
