Keeping it alive
Your annual report / renewal
| Filing | Annual Report / Renewal |
|---|---|
| How often | annual |
| Fee | $18 |
| When it's due | $18 (includes a $5 online-portal surcharge). Official Division FAQ: renewal is due one year from the date of registration and annually thereafter. |
| If you're late | $10 late renewal fee. |
| If you keep ignoring it | Failure to renew moves the entity to delinquent/expired status, risking administrative dissolution. Domestic LLC reinstatement fee $54. Exact dissolution timeline not stated. |
State tax: Utah does not impose a separate entity-level franchise/income tax on a standard pass-through domestic LLC; income passes through to members. Only an LLC electing corporate treatment would face Utah's corporate franchise tax (commonly cited $100 minimum, unverified).
What we're less sure about
Caveats on this page
- $59 + $18 = $77 - among the cheapest jurisdictions in the dataset.
- First renewal due exactly one year after registration, landing at the year-one boundary.
