REVISED
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30143 / H0188
Idaho’s unclaimed property law, Title 14, Chapter 5, has not undergone a complete update since 1983. Since
then, changes to policy have been piecemeal and sporadic.
This legislation seeks to revise and organize the unclaimed property code so it will be business and
constituent-friendly, technologically current, and garners no new authority for the governing agency.
This legislation provides detailed roadmaps for businesses to follow when reporting unclaimed property and
clear protocols for dormancy triggers. The updates are consistent with existing Idaho law which include laws
governing confidentiality, data breaches and best practices.
FISCAL NOTE
The adoption of this revision will have no fiscal impact.
