Keeping it alive
Your business entity report
| Filing | Business Entity Report |
|---|---|
| How often | biennial |
| Fee | $32 |
| When it's due | Every other year, due by the end of the month before the anniversary month of formation. The initial report is due two years after formation. $32 online / $50 paper. |
| If you're late | No fixed dollar late fee. SOS sends 90-day and 30-day reminder emails, then a Past Due Notice, then Pending Administrative Dissolution, then final dissolution notice. |
| If you keep ignoring it | Multi-stage: reminders at 90/30 days -> electronic Past Due Notice -> mailed Pending Administrative Dissolution notice -> Administrative Dissolution postcard. Reinstatement requires DOR tax clearance (~4-6 weeks). |
State tax: No franchise tax for LLCs.
What we're less sure about
Caveats on this page
- Report data confirmed directly from official inbiz.in.gov (high confidence on that portion).
- Formation fee NOT confirmed from an official fee schedule - INBiz fee calculator returned no fee text.
- Biennial with first report due two years out, so no report fee in year one.
