Compliance Support
What is an annual report for an LLC?
An annual report is a state-required filing that confirms your LLC is still active and updates your company's registration information with the secretary of state. Every state that requires it sets its own fee, due date, and form. Miss yours and the penalties stack up fast.
The consequences of skipping an annual report go beyond a late fee. States move from penalty to administrative dissolution when business entities fail to file for too long. Once dissolved, your LLC loses good standing. Banks won't open accounts, lenders won't approve loans, and investors won't sign contracts without a valid certificate of good standing. Reinstatement after dissolution always costs more than filing on time, sometimes hundreds of dollars more, plus back fees for every missed year. Limited liability companies that need to register in a new state also can't do that without being in good standing in their home state.
Not every state calls it an annual report. Wyoming and Florida use that name, but Delaware calls it an Annual Franchise Tax, and California uses a Statement of Information. ProTax USA tracks whatever name your state uses and makes sure the right form reaches the right office. Book online or call now.
How It Works
How does ProTax USA handle LLC annual report filings?
ProTax USA manages the entire annual report process so you don't have to watch the calendar. Here's how it works for your LLC.
ProTax USA collects your LLC's state, entity type, registration date, principal address, mailing address, and registered agent. For a Wyoming LLC, ProTax USA notes that the annual report is due on the LLC's anniversary date each year and flags a 30-day advance reminder tied to that date, not the calendar year.
Before the due date, ProTax USA prepares and submits the annual report directly through the secretary of state's portal. The filing includes any updated details, address changes, member updates, or a new registered agent, so your registration stays current and the state record matches reality.
After filing, ProTax USA sends you a confirmation with the state's acknowledgment attached. Delaware's $300 franchise tax receipt, Florida's $138.75 annual report confirmation, Wyoming's $60 fee receipt, whatever the state produces goes straight to you for your records. ProTax USA can take over annual report management for your existing LLC at any point in the filing window. Call or book online today.
Pricing Clarity
Why let ProTax USA manage LLC annual reports instead of doing it yourself?
Filing a corporation or LLC annual report looks simple until you hit a state-specific calculation that's easy to get wrong. Delaware's franchise tax is the clearest example. The default method the secretary of state presents can overstate what you owe by thousands of dollars. ProTax USA uses the Assumed Par Value Capital method, which is almost always cheaper for small and mid-size business entities. Most owners who file on their own don't know to ask, and they overpay every year.
For non-resident LLC owners, missing an annual report deadline is a real risk. State mail goes to a US address you may not monitor, and failure to file triggers a penalty sequence you won't hear about until it's too late. ProTax USA tracks deadlines independently of any mail system. The Wyoming annual report due date, the Florida May 1 deadline with its $400 late penalty, the Delaware June 1 franchise tax, ProTax USA handles all of them without you keeping a separate calendar per state.
ProTax USA also stays current when annual report requirements change. States update fees, forms, and due dates. A nonprofit, a partnership, and an LLC may each face different rules in the same state. ProTax USA covers each entity type correctly. If you must file annual reports in multiple states, ProTax USA manages each one. Book online or call now.

FAQ
Common questions about LLC annual report filing
State fees What is the annual report fee for a Wyoming LLC?
Wyoming charges a $60 annual report fee for LLCs with assets under $250,000 in the state. The annual report is due on the anniversary of your LLC's registration date each year. Miss it and Wyoming adds a $25 penalty. ProTax USA files before the annual report is due so you never pay the penalty.
State fees What is the annual report requirement for a Delaware LLC?
Delaware LLCs must file a franchise tax report with a $300 fee due by June 1 each year, plus a $50 annual report fee. ProTax USA files using the Assumed Par Value Capital method, which typically results in a lower tax than the default calculation the state shows. Missing June 1 adds a $200 late penalty plus interest.
Deadlines When is the Florida LLC annual report due?
Florida LLCs are required to file an annual report by May 1 each year. The filing fee is $138.75. Miss May 1 and the state adds a $400 late penalty automatically. Business entities that still haven't filed after September 30 face administrative dissolution. ProTax USA tracks the Florida deadline and files well before the due date.
Filing scope What is a statement of information and which states use that name?
A statement of information is what California and a few other states call their version of the annual report. It's the same concept, a required filing that updates your LLC's registration details with the secretary of state. ProTax USA files statements of information and annual reports under whatever name your state uses, so the terminology doesn't create a gap.
Penalties What happens if I don't file an annual report?
Failure to file an annual report typically starts a penalty sequence. States first charge a late fee, then mark the LLC delinquent, and eventually revocation or administrative dissolution follows. A dissolved LLC loses good standing and can't legally do business. ProTax USA handles annual filing before any of that starts.
Registered agent Do I need a registered agent to file an annual report?
Most states require a registered agent on file who can accept service of process. Your annual report must confirm that agent's name and address. If the agent has changed, ProTax USA updates that detail in the annual report filing so the record at the secretary of state stays accurate and your LLC stays compliant.
Multi-state Does ProTax USA handle annual reports for foreign LLCs registered in multiple states?
Yes. ProTax USA tracks annual report deadlines for domestic and foreign LLCs registered in any of the 50 states. If your LLC is registered in Wyoming, Delaware, and Florida, ProTax USA manages all three annual report filings, each with its own due date and filing fee, so nothing gets missed.
Reinstatement Can a dissolved LLC be reinstated after missing annual report deadlines?
In most states, yes, but reinstatement costs more than the original annual report filing fee. You'll typically owe back fees, accumulated penalties, and sometimes a separate reinstatement filing fee. ProTax USA can handle the reinstatement process, but the better outcome is annual report management before dissolution ever happens.
