Filing an Idaho Annual Report is one requirement of maintaining an LLC or corporation in Idaho. The Report confirms and updates the company’s information each year with the Idaho Secretary of State, such as the name and address of the registered agent and principal office address.

Who Needs to File an Annual Report?

Domestic and foreign corporations and LLCs are required to file an annual report each year after the year the company was formed.

What is Needed to File an Idaho Annual Report?

You can file the Annual Registration online through the Idaho Secretary of State’s website or by mail.

The report asks for information such as:

  • Corporation / LLC name
  • Street and mailing address of the principal place of business
  • Name and street address (P.O. Boxes are not allowed) of the Idaho Registered Agent
  • Name and address of the entity’s governors

Idaho Annual Report Cost

The annual report is free if you file online. However, due to manual processing, filing the paper form incurs a $20 filing fee.

Annual Report Due Date

After the first year after formation, the annual filing is due by the last day of the anniversary month the business entity was formed. For example, if your Idaho LLC or Corporation was formed on January 1st, the Annual Report deadline will be every year after that by January 31st. 

The Idaho Secretary of State’s office sends an email approximately one month before the Annual Report is due. Even though a reminder is sent, it’s important to make an additional reminder for yourself should you not receive it. 

Idaho Annual Report FAQs

My business made little or no money.  Do I still have to file the Annual Report?

Even if your Idaho corporation or LLC received no income or business activity, the Annual Report still needs to be filed.

What happens if you don’t file the Annual Report on time?

If the Annual Report is not filed within 60 days of the due date, the entity will lose its good standing status with the state and eventually be administratively dissolved. Should the LLC or corporation be sued, the owners may be held personally liable for not being in good standing.
