The bill amends the Uniform Commercial Code to allow the Recorder of Deeds to accept financing statement forms approved by the International.

The Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement Forms Amendment Act of 2025 modifies the D.C. Official Code to ensure the Recorder of Deeds cannot refuse a written initial financing statement if it conforms to a format approved by the International Association of Commercial Administrators or adopted by the Chief Financial Officer. The act also replaces references to the Mayor with the Chief Financial Officer in relevant sections. This change aims to streamline the process for filing financing statements in the District of Columbia.
