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.

New Hampshire LLC filing fee

$100 to file the Certificate of Formation (Form LLC-1)

Note from the reading $100 is the filing fee. Filed online, the state adds a $2.00 handling charge to any fee received electronically, so the online total is $102; on paper it is $100. RSA 304-C:191 sets the same $100.

New Hampshire LLC annual tax or franchise tax

not read

Not read. No official page read today states an annual LLC-specific tax or states that there is none; the New Hampshire Department of Revenue Administration pages (Business Profits Tax, Business Enterprise Tax) were not read.

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

Filing office and the state's own forms

New Hampshire Secretary of State, Corporation Division

Looked for and not read

  • The Certificate of Formation form itself (form_llc-1 PDF): HTTP 403 to automated fetching; not read.
  • Any annual LLC tax (Department of Revenue Administration): not read.
  • Whether publication is required: not stated on the pages read.

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.nh.gov refuses non-browser fetching (HTTP 403), so both Secretary of State pages were read in a web browser. fee_usd records the $100 filing fee the fee table states; the page separately says 'all fees received electronically by the State of New Hampshire will be charged an additional $2.00 handling charge', so an online filer pays $102 for the formation and $102 for the annual report. The report source quote is one row of the fee table read left to right (the row label, then the 'Report Fee' and 'Late Fee' labels, then the two amounts); the same $100 is in RSA 304-C:191 II(f) ('Upon receipt for filing of an annual report under RSA 304-C:194, a fee in the amount of $100'), read at https://gc.nh.gov/rsa/html/XXVIII/304-C/304-C-191.htm. The FAQ also says: 'An annual report and filing fee for these business types is due by April 1st of each year following the year of registration.'

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.
