إجابات مباشرة
أسئلة KYC وKYB وAML في بوليفيا
Who receives suspicious operation reports in Bolivia?+
Designated reporting entities file directly with the Unidad de Investigaciones Financieras (UIF) through its current secure system and under the applicable sector instruction.
What is the suspicious-reporting deadline?+
For financial intermediaries under Resolution 016/2026, a suspicious attempted or completed operation is reported promptly and within 24 hours after it is classified as suspicious. Other sectors must use their own current UIF instruction.
Is there one universal threshold report?+
No universal threshold is stated in this report. UIF may require reports with or without thresholds, and each entity must implement the current sector-specific amount, aggregation period and report type.
Who is a beneficial owner for financial-sector CDD?+
The 2026 financial-intermediary instruction identifies natural persons with at least 20% direct or indirect participation, then persons exercising control, and finally a relevant senior manager after documented reasonable measures.
Does Bolivia have a beneficial-owner register?+
SEPREC operates a beneficial-owner declaration process within the Registry of Commerce. Access, filing events and the current form must be confirmed through the live SEPREC procedure; registry information does not replace AML verification.
How long are financial-sector AML records retained?+
Resolution 016/2026 requires at least ten years for transactions after completion and for CDD/account/analysis records after relationship end or the occasional transaction, depending on record type.
Do payment and virtual-asset businesses require approval or registration?+
Potentially. Financial and payment activities may require ASFI or BCB approval. UIF designated PSAVs as reporting entities and provides registration services; the exact live perimeter and sector instruction must be confirmed before launch.
What happens on a UN terrorism-list match?+
Under Law 262 and UIF Instruction 26/2023, the entity follows the preventive-freezing procedure, reports the positive without delay and files the linked ROS within one business day. Judicial review and UIF communications must be preserved.
What privacy law applies to KYC and biometrics?+
Constitutional privacy and habeas-data rights, Supreme Decree 1793 article 56 and sector confidentiality rules apply. Bolivia does not have one comprehensive private-sector data law, so biometric and international-transfer designs require conservative analysis and local advice.
Is Bolivia on the FATF grey list?+
Yes. FATF placed Bolivia under increased monitoring in June 2025. This is not the call-for-action list, and FATF states that risk-based measures should be used rather than blanket de-risking.

General regulatory information, not legal advice, a licensing decision or a substitute for the operative Spanish text, sector instruction, CARONTE procedures or regulator guidance. Reviewed 4 August 2026. The detailed 20% beneficial-owner test, 24-hour post-classification ROS deadline, five-year former-PEP period and ten-year retention rules cited here are from the 2026 financial-intermediary instruction and must not be applied to another sector without checking its current UIF instruction. Confirm perimeter, registration, reporting channel, thresholds, data-processing basis and later FATF/UIF developments with qualified Bolivian counsel and the competent authority before launch.
