Benefits of having us file an annual report for you
Avoid penalties
Avoid tedious paperwork and the risk of filing incorrectly. We file the report for you and help ensure it’s done accurately and on time.
Most companies submit annual reports to their state to operate there legally. For public companies, annual reports also provide data on business operations for investors and outside analysts.
Depending on your state, business entities typically need to file reports on a regular basis. Some of the common entity types that may need to file reports include:
• LLCs
• Corporations
• Nonprofits
The majority of states require small businesses to file some form of report to comply with state regulations and to maintain their good standing.
To help you find out whether your state requires an annual report for your type of business entity, we’ve included a comprehensive chart on this page for your reference.
Select my plan
Annual reports list an LLC's basic information, including the name of its owners, its address, and the registered agent's contact information.
Depending on the state in which the LLC is formed and operated, the yearly report may be called an “annual report,” a “statement of information,” an “annual statement,” or something similar.

Save time and effort by letting us take care of everything for you.
- We ensure that all the required information is included before filing
- We create and submit the report to help you file on time and avoid penalties
- Covered by our LZ Guarantee
You may need to spend extra time and effort, outside of managing your business, in order to:
- Research your state requirements
- Complete the business report form and ensure it’s accurate
- File with your required state(s) on time and include the correct filing fee
- Prepare for the next annual report
Each state creates its own annual report standards and practices. Depending on where you operate, specific report requirements may change, such as:
• The due date
• Any filing fees
• The required information about your business
When we file your report for you, we’ll ensure it complies with all your state’s requirements.
We can take all the guesswork out of the process by filling out your form for you based on the information you provide, so we can make sure your report is filed accurately.
Submission options vary by state, but most states require you to print the form from a state agency's website and mail it to its office. Alternatively, they might send the form to an LLC's registered agent, who would be responsible for completing it and submitting it to the state.
When we file for you, you don’t have to worry about figuring out the best way to submit. We’ll submit your report to the state and send you a copy digitally and by mail.
Some states charge hefty fees to businesses that miss the filing deadline or file using outdated or incorrect information. To avoid this:
- Set up a reminder system for upcoming due dates on your calendar or another tool
- Keep an eye out for any policy changes around annual reports to stay compliant and avoid mistakes
Deadlines may also vary. The report may be due on the anniversary of your business formation, or your state may have a single due date for all reports. Other states require you to file an initial report within a specific period after your business formation.
You may need to pay late fees and penalties, and you could lose your good standing with the state. This means the state will no longer recognize your company as a legal entity, which could affect contracts and hurt business relationships. You also could lose your limited liability protections, and may even face the administrative dissolution of your company.
Consequences of not filing your annual report:
• Additional fees such as late fees
• Penalties from the state
• Loss of contracts
• Personal liability from loss of LLC or Corp
• Loss of good standing
• Potential termination of the business
