FAQ

Filing in California, answered.

The questions California LLC owners ask us most often.

When is my California annual report due?

April 15 biennially — every two years from the LLC's formation date.

What happens if I miss the California deadline?

$250 late fee; the Franchise Tax Board may suspend the LLC, blocking all business transactions until cured. Filings Bureau prevents this when engaged in time, and advises on cure procedures and reinstatement when engaged after.

Do I need a registered agent in California?

Yes. California requires every LLC to maintain a registered agent with a physical address in the state. Filings Bureau is a filing service, not a registered agent — but we'll record your agent on each filing and flag any mismatch with the state's index.

Are state filing fees included in your price?

Yes — the price on each service card is the all-in total, with the state's filing fee and our service fee broken out for transparency. Nothing else is added at checkout.

How long does a California filing take?

Online filings, 3–5 business days; paper filings, 10–15 business days.

Is Filings Bureau affiliated with the California Secretary of State?

No. Filings Bureau is a private filing service. We file on your behalf and are not affiliated with the California Secretary of State or any California government office.
