In California, most corporations and LLCs are required to file an annual report or statement of information with the Secretary of State, and some entities have local annual reporting obligations. The specifics depend on your entity type and location.
In California, annual filings are due on a schedule tied to your formation or registration anniversary and may vary by entity type. Penalties apply for late submissions, so it’s important to confirm deadlines with the Secretary of State.

Missed deadlines can result in penalties, loss of good standing, and, in some cases, administrative dissolution. Remedies may include late filing options and reinstatement steps.
California filings are typically filed with the Secretary of State for status and ownership changes; local jurisdictions may require separate annual reports from time to time.
