South Carolina LLC Annual Report

What it is

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

When it’s due

South Carolina requires the report on a none 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 South Carolina SoS site.

Cost

$0 per none filing for South Carolina 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

South Carolina 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

South Carolina does not require LLCs (taxed as pass-through) to file an annual report. LLCs taxed as C-corporations must file an annual report and license fee with SCDOR.
