New Hampshire lesson 6 of 6
File the New Hampshire Annual Report
New Hampshire's ongoing filing is the Annual Report, due to the Secretary of State every year to keep your LLC in good standing, with a $100 fee.
What is due and when
Every New Hampshire LLC must file an Annual Report each year, due by April 1, with a $100 fee. File it on NH QuickStart, either through the standard Annual Report filing or, if nothing about your business or principal information has changed, through the streamlined One Click option.
If you miss it
A $50 late fee applies once you miss the April 1 deadline. If the Annual Report and late fee remain unpaid, the Secretary of State can administratively dissolve the LLC, which ends its good standing and can expose members to added risk for any business conducted afterward under the dissolved entity's name.
Because the Annual Report also confirms your registered agent and registered office, filing on time doubles as a yearly check that your public record is accurate.
Key takeaways
- The Annual Report costs $100 and is due every April 1.
- A $50 late fee applies after the deadline, and continued non-filing can lead to administrative dissolution.
- File through NH QuickStart, using One Click if none of your information has changed.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to file an Annual Report in my first calendar year?
Check the specific filing rules on NH QuickStart for the year your LLC was formed, since the first Annual Report cycle depends on your formation date relative to the April 1 deadline.
What happens if my New Hampshire LLC is administratively dissolved?
You can generally apply for reinstatement by filing the outstanding Annual Reports and fees with the Secretary of State, but the LLC is not in good standing until reinstatement is processed.
