Scope: a standard domestic LLC at standard processing speed, filed online where the online and paper fees differ. The figure shown is the one the cited page states; an add-on or a paper fee that the page also states is in the note under the figure, and nothing is computed from a note.

Florida LLC filing fee

$125 to file the Articles of Organization

Note from the reading $100.00 filing fee plus $25.00 registered agent fee; the page marks both 'Required' and totals them.

Florida LLC annual tax or franchise tax

not read

Not read. No official statement was read today on whether the state charges LLCs an annual, franchise or privilege tax separate from the report fee.

Not read is not the same as no tax. It means no official page was read that says whether Florida charges an LLC an annual, franchise or privilege tax separate from the report fee.

Publication requirement

not read

Not read. No official page read today states whether a newspaper publication is required of a new LLC; the formation pages read list no publication step.

Looked for and not read

  • The opening date of the annual report filing window and whether the first report is due the year after formation: not stated on the pages read.
  • Any annual LLC tax (no Department of Revenue page was read).
  • Whether newspaper publication is required.

The researcher's notes

Written by the researcher who read the pages, unedited. Field names such as due_kind are the names in this site's data file.

The fee page calls the $138.75 'Annual Report (& Supplemental Fee)'.

Fees change. The state's own page is the authority: open the source link beside a figure before you file or pay. This desk is a reading of public pages. It is not legal advice and it is not tax advice.
