What to know before forming an LLC in Florida.
These facts were checked against official state and IRS sources on April 28, 2026.
Formation steps
Florida LLC names must be distinguishable in Division of Corporations records and include an LLC designator such as LLC, L.L.C., or Limited Liability Company.
Florida requires a registered agent with a physical Florida street address. The agent must accept the obligations of the role when the filing is submitted.
File the Florida LLC Articles of Organization through Sunbiz. The required state charge totals $125, made up of a $100 filing fee and a $25 registered agent designation fee.
After formation, Jupid can handle the EIN workflow and generate the operating agreement for subscription customers.
Florida LLCs file an annual report each year between January 1 and May 1 to keep active status. Late filing adds a $400 late fee.
Florida taxes and ongoing filings
Florida generally follows the LLC's federal tax classification for many state tax purposes. Florida Department of Revenue guidance says reemployment tax treatment depends on whether the LLC files federally as a corporation, partnership, or sole proprietor, and sales tax or industry taxes may apply depending on the business.
Registered agent
Florida LLC filings require a registered agent with a physical street address in Florida. An entity cannot serve as its own registered agent, but an individual or principal associated with the business may serve. Use your own eligible Florida agent or add registered agent service for an additional fee.
Local permits and licenses
Florida LLC formation does not replace county, city, sales tax, professional, contractor, food, health, or industry permits. Many Florida businesses should check county tax receipt and local licensing rules before opening.
Florida LLC questions, answered.
How much does it cost to form a Florida LLC?
Florida lists a total required fee of $125 for a new Florida LLC: $100 for Articles of Organization and $25 for the registered agent designation. Jupid's base filing service is free; the government state fee is still paid separately.
Does a Florida LLC need a registered agent?
Yes. Florida requires a registered agent with a physical street address in Florida. The LLC itself cannot serve as its own registered agent.
When is the Florida LLC annual report due?
Florida LLC annual reports are filed from January 1 to May 1. The LLC annual report fee is $138.75, and reports received after May 1 are listed at $538.75 because of the late fee.
Can Jupid get my EIN after the Florida LLC is formed?
Yes. Jupid can handle the EIN step for subscription customers after the LLC is formed, because the IRS recommends forming the state entity before applying for an EIN.
