District of Columbia LLC Annual Report

What it is

The annual report keeps your LLC’s information current with the District of Columbia state — addresses, members/managers, and registered agent. It is filed online or by mail.

When it’s due

District of Columbia requires the report on a biennial cycle. Most states use the anniversary month of formation, but some have a fixed due date for all entities. Verify the current due date for your specific LLC on the District of Columbia SoS site.

Cost

$300 per biennial filing for District of Columbia LLCs.

What information is required

• LLC name and SoS file number
• Principal office address
• Names and addresses of members or managers (state requirements vary)
• Registered agent information
• Brief description of business activity (some states)

Penalties for late or missed filing

District of Columbia imposes penalties for late filing — typically a flat late fee plus risk of administrative dissolution if the report remains unfiled past a grace period. Reinstatement after dissolution typically costs much more than the original report fee.

State-specific note

DC is unique: LLCs file with the Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection (not a Secretary of State). The biennial BRA-25 report is $300 — among the highest in the country.
