Missouri LLC filing fee

$50 to file the Articles of Organization

Note from the reading $50.00 filed online; $105.00 on paper (form LLC-1). The fee schedule calls the filing 'Certificates of Limited Liability Company'. The schedule says electronic payments incur an additional small convenience fee that the state does not keep. The Secretary of State's FAQ states the same: '$50.00 online versus $105.00 by paper'.

“Certificates of Limited Liability Company (domestic)(online) ... 50.00”

Missouri LLC periodic report and due date

No annual report required

The page read says an LLC files no annual or periodic report in Missouri. Its words are quoted below.

Note from the reading The Secretary of State's FAQ answers the question with a bare 'No.' Annual registration reports are required of corporations, not LLCs.

“Do limited liability companies have to file an annual report? No.”

Missouri LLC annual tax or franchise tax

not read

Not read. No official page read today states an annual LLC tax or states that there is none; the Missouri Department of Revenue pages were not read.

Not read is not the same as no tax. It means no official page was read that says whether Missouri 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 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.

sos.mo.gov answers a plain command-line fetch with HTTP 403; the fee schedule PDF and the FAQ page opened through the web-fetch tool, and the PDF was read from the copy it saved. The formation quote is one row of the fee schedule with its line of dot leaders shortened to '...'; the paper row above it reads '(domestic/foreign)(paper) ... $105.00'. The fee schedule is headed '(June 30, 2015)' and its footer is marked '(01/2025)'. A title seen in search results for the form reads 'Submit with filing fee of $105.00', which is the paper 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.
