LLC annual report due dates by state (2026)
We list due dates for 40 states, each read on the state's own website. States set the date differently: a fixed calendar day, the end of the anniversary month, or a window before it.
Due dates by state
- Alabama: An LLC that owes Alabama's business privilege tax files its first return (Form BPT-IN) within two and a half months of formation. Source
- Alabama: After that, the business privilege tax return for an LLC is due on the same date as its federal income tax return. Source
- Alaska: The biennial report is due January 2 every two years: in even-numbered years for LLCs formed in an even year, in odd-numbered years for those formed in an odd year. Filing opens three months before the due date. Source
- Arizona: Arizona LLCs file no annual report. Instead, each January the Corporation Commission emails LLCs that have filed nothing in two years and asks them to confirm they still exist; without a response within 60 days, it starts administrative dissolution. Source
- California: The first Statement of Information is due within 90 days of forming the LLC, then every two years by the end of the calendar month of the original registration date. Source
- Colorado: The periodic report is due every year around the month the LLC was formed: it can be filed from two months before to two months after that month. After that the LLC becomes Noncompliant, and if the report is still not filed two months later it becomes Delinquent. Source
- Connecticut: Connecticut LLCs file the annual report between January 1 and March 31 each year. Source
