What Is an LLC Annual Report?

Written byRegistryWise Editorial TeamFact-checked against official sources · How we research

The short answer

An annual report is a short yearly filing that keeps a company's address, agent and management details current with the state. Most states require one and charge a fee, and missing it is the most common reason companies get dissolved.

Also called: Statement of information, Periodic report, Biennial report, Annual registration, Franchise tax report

What it asks for

It isn't a financial report. Most states only want the company's addresses, its registered agent, and the names of its managers, members or officers, confirmed or updated.

Deadlines and late fees

Each state sets its own schedule. Some use one date for everyone, others use the month the company was formed, and a few only ask every two years. Missing it usually means a late fee, then loss of good standing, then administrative dissolution.
