Beneficial Ownership Declaration Form

Who this template is for

Beneficial Ownership Declaration Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

• Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in banking & identity.
• Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
• Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
• Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 25 questions across 4 screens.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

• 15 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
• It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
• It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
• It pins the request to a specific date.
• It captures a full postal address.
• Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
• Splitting the form across 4 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
• Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

• Features advanced show logic: if “How is ownership held?” is Through a trust, the form dynamically exposes “Trust name and role holders”. Otherwise that question never appears.
• Features conditional validation: if “How is ownership held?” is Through one or more companies, “Upload a structure chart” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
• Features advanced show logic: if “Is anyone exercising control without holding shares?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Describe how control is exercised”. Otherwise that question never appears.
• Features advanced show logic: if “Is the entity listed on a regulated market?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Exchange and ticker”. Otherwise that question never appears.
• All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.
