Kentucky LLC Annual Report
Kentucky LLCs file an annual report (or equivalent periodic filing) with the Secretary of State. The fee is $15 on a annual basis.
What it is
The annual report keeps your LLC’s information current with the Kentucky state — addresses, members/managers, and registered agent. It is filed online or by mail.
When it’s due
Kentucky requires the report on a annual 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 Kentucky SoS site.
Cost
$15 per annual filing for Kentucky 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
Kentucky 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
Kentucky has the cheapest LLC filing fee in the country at $40, with a low $15 annual report. The Limited Liability Entity Tax may apply at higher revenue.
