2020 Florida Annual Uniform Business Reports – Due June 30

While usually required to be filed by May 1 of every year, due to COVID-19 the Florida Secretary of State extended the deadline for Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Limited Partnerships, and Limited Liability Limited Partnerships to file their 2020 Florida Annual Uniform Business Report to June 30, 2020. A non-negotiable late fee of $400 will be added to the State’s filing fee for entities that file their Florida Annual Report after this deadline. Failure to file a 2020 Florida Annual Report for an entity will result in the administrative dissolution or revocation of the entity in September 2020.

Even if a third party, like Cross Street Corporate Services, LLC, serves as your entity’s registered agent, it is your responsibility to file the Annual Report with the State of Florida. Annual Reports should be electronically filed at the Florida Department of State’s website.

If you have specific questions for the Florida Secretary of State regarding filing your annual report, you can speak to someone with the Florida Secretary of State’s Division of Corporations by calling 850-245-6000.
