Is the ownership of a BVI company private?

From the public, largely yes; from the authorities, no. Every new BVI company files its beneficial owners with the Registrar, and the register is not open to general public search. A person can apply to inspect an entry for a US$75 fee, on conditions set in the regulations. The company can object or seek an exemption (as of September 2026).
