Plan with the details in view
What Are the Main Florida LLC Requirements?
Identify the entity type and current Sunbiz status before choosing a filing.
Florida LLC filing costs
Sunbiz lists $100 for the LLC filing and $25 for registered-agent designation. Optional copies and status certificates add to that amount. The state designation charge is separate from any provider’s agent-service fee.
The recurring Sunbiz report
The listed LLC annual report fee is $138.75; a $400 late charge applies after May 1. This report confirms the entity record rather than serving as a financial statement.
An overdue company may need reinstatement
If Sunbiz shows the entity as administratively dissolved or revoked, discuss that status before requesting an ordinary report. Reinstatement is a separate application with its own charges.

How Do You Prepare a Florida LLC Filing?
Preparing the filing comes down to four steps, from your first details to a confirmed filing.
- 01
Choose the company task

- 02
Review the proposed details
Organize the name, addresses, management and agent arrangements for the requested work.
- 03
Confirm scope and charges
Check the FormLLC service, government fees, optional documents and renewal terms before authorizing a submission.
- 04
Keep the accepted filing
Retain the filed document and receipt, then assign responsibility for future reports and separate tax or licensing work.
Before requesting help
What Details Do You Need for a Florida LLC Filing?
Have these details ready before you ask us to help with the filing.
- New company plans, entity type and actual operating locations.
- Existing legal name, Sunbiz document number and current status, if applicable.
- The reporting year or exact address, agent or other record change requested.
- Any notice received, previous filing confirmation and your preferred timeline.
Know which filing you need
Match a Florida company update to the right form.
A routine annual report does not cover every change or company status.
- Company details and name changes
- The annual report can update several details, including addresses and agent information. Changing the legal business name needs the appropriate amendment.
- Active and dissolved records
- Check the current status first. A company already dissolved or revoked needs the applicable restoration process, rather than an assumption that a routine report will resolve it.
Licenses, tax returns and registrations where the business operates remain separate from the Sunbiz company record.
Questions answered
Florida LLC and Sunbiz filing questions
Can FormLLC help me form a Florida LLC?
Share your company plans and operating locations. FormLLC will confirm the available formation work, required information, service fee and separate state or third-party charges before you proceed.
What are the required state charges for a Florida LLC?
The published schedule lists a $100 LLC filing charge and $25 for agent designation. Optional documents and provider services are additional. The state designation charge does not pay for ongoing registered-agent coverage.
What does a Florida LLC annual report cost?
Sunbiz lists $138.75 for the LLC annual report. A $400 late charge applies after May 1. Check the company’s status and the applicable reporting year before ordering support.
Must I file a Sunbiz annual report if nothing changed?
Yes. Sunbiz says the annual report is required even when the information is unchanged. It confirms the state record and is not a financial statement.
Can an annual report change my Florida business name?
No. A name change requires the appropriate amendment. Identify the exact update so FormLLC can discuss the correct filing scope.
What if my Florida entity is already dissolved on Sunbiz?
Provide the current record and any notices. A reinstatement application may be needed; do not assume an ordinary annual report alone will restore the entity.
