Florida: $138.75–$150 report a year, minimum

What the minimum covers — and doesn't

$138.75–$150 report keeps the entity alive (5.5% over $50k (corps)). It never includes registered-agent fees ($50–$300), foreign qualifications you trigger elsewhere, or income taxes on profit. Model multi-state totals in the tri-state matrix before choosing a domicile.

Getting started

Formation: $125 Articles of Organization (LLC); $70 Articles of Incorporation. That one-time cost comes before the first annual payment, which is due May 1 ($400 late).
