Filing facts
Ohio LLC annual report due date, fee, and penalty
- Deadline and frequency
- No Secretary of State annual report deadline for standard Ohio LLCs; CAT registration and filing deadlines depend on taxable gross receipts · No annual report for standard LLCs
- Filing fee and payment
- $0 annual report fee for standard LLCs · No annual report payment for standard LLCs; Ohio CAT registration and payments are handled through Ohio Department of Taxation systems when required
- Late penalty amount and effective date
- $0 annual-report penalty for standard LLCs because no standard LLC annual report is required · Not applicable for standard Ohio LLC annual reports; tax penalties can apply separately if CAT obligations are missed
- Good standing impact
- Good standing for a standard Ohio LLC is mostly about maintaining the entity record, statutory agent, tax accounts, and required licenses rather than filing an annual SOS report.
- Reinstatement process
- Because standard Ohio LLCs are not administratively dissolved for missing an annual report, there is no annual-report reinstatement path. If canceled for another reason, file the applicable Ohio reinstatement or statement of correction documents and resolve tax or statutory-agent issues.
- Registered agent notice
- Ohio LLCs must maintain a statutory agent. Since standard LLCs have no annual report, the agent does not receive a standard annual-report notice, but stale agent information can still create service-of-process and status problems.
