North Dakota annual reports, deadlines, and fees
Start with your entity type below. North Dakota reporting schedules can differ for LLCs and corporations; a report may be annual, biennial, or not required for a particular entity type.
Open North Dakota filing agency ↗North Dakota LLC reports
North Dakota domestic and foreign LLC annual reports cost $50.00 and are due November 15. The report updates agent, office, and management information; delinquency can cause inactive status, dissolution, or loss of authority.
North Dakota corporation reports
North Dakota corporation annual reports use the current corporation schedule; the accessible statute lists $25.00 and the entity's due date is shown by the FirstStop record. The report is separate from North Dakota tax filings.
North Dakota franchise and business taxes
No separate North Dakota Secretary-of-State franchise tax applies as a registry fee. Corporate income and other tax obligations are administered by the Tax Commissioner and depend on taxable income, apportionment, and classification.
A registry report and a tax filing can have different deadlines and payment recipients. Check both before considering the year complete.
Late fees and missed-report penalties
The reviewed North Dakota pages do not show one universal late penalty. Missing reports can result in inactive status, administrative dissolution, or foreign revocation; tax penalties and interest are separate.
Administrative dissolution and notices
North Dakota can dissolve or revoke an entity for missed annual reports, fees, or agent requirements. Notices and the entity statute govern cure timing; the public pages do not state one universal day count.
Reinstate a North Dakota business
Search FirstStop, file delinquent reports, correct the registered agent/office, submit reinstatement, pay all current reports and fees, and confirm active status. Resolve North Dakota tax filings separately.
Reinstatement costs and back taxes
Reinstatement fees are entity-specific and include missing $50 LLC reports or applicable corporation reports and penalties. Tax balances, interest, and penalties are separate Tax Commissioner liabilities.
