Mississippi Annual Report: No Fee, But Do Not Skip It
For $99 a year, get a Mississippi agent with a registered address on file, same-day scanning of legal documents, and compliance reminders before state deadlines.
Mississippi charges a domestic LLC nothing to file its annual report. Zero. The catch: the report is still mandatory, it can only be filed online, and blowing past April 15 starts a countdown toward administrative dissolution. Here is the whole picture.

When the Mississippi Annual Report Is Due
April 15, every year. The statute leaves the exact date to the Secretary of State, who fixed it by rule, and the portal starts accepting reports on January 1. Form your LLC in 2026 and your first report is due in 2027, not the year you formed.
The Mississippi Annual Report Fee: $0 for a Domestic LLC
Ready when you are. Ordering takes about five minutes.
Order HereNo fee, no payment screen, no invoice. A domestic LLC files free. Foreign LLCs are the exception at $250. Corporations pay $25 for their version of the report (the state labels it Form F0008), and domestic nonprofits also file free.
Filing the Mississippi Annual Report: Step by Step
Paper is not an option. Mississippi takes annual reports online only, through the Secretary of State's business portal. Have your login and your Business ID number ready, then:
- Sign in at the SOS business portal, usually with the account created when the entity was first filed.
- Pull up your entity by its Business ID number.
- Check the pre-filled report. The system loads last year's data: name, principal office, registered agent, member and manager details.
- Fix whatever changed, confirm your six-digit NAICS code, and supply the FEIN and phone number the state collects (both stay redacted from public view).
- Submit. Processing is immediate, and a confirmation email lands the same day with a downloadable filed copy and a tracking number.
Note what the report cannot do: swap your registered agent. That takes a separate $10 amendment, covered on our change of agent page. For portal account questions, the state keeps a business FAQ.
What Happens After April 15
No late fee. Mississippi's late penalty for an LLC annual report is $0. Do not relax yet.
The dissolution clock. Around 60 days after the due date, the Secretary of State can issue a notice of intent to administratively dissolve the entity, with a cure period before it becomes final. Ignore the notice and your LLC loses its legal status, its liability shield, and its name protection.
The correction window. A report returned for missing information still counts as timely if you fix and re-deliver it within 30 days of the state's notice.
Reinstatement. Coming back from dissolution means filing the delinquent reports and paying a reinstatement fee. Far cheaper and faster to file on time, especially when on time is free.
Why a Free Filing Still Gets Missed
