Mark Kohler explains why your LLC might be expired without you realizing it. Most states require annual renewals, and missing the deadline can get your company suspended, dissolve it administratively, or strip away legal protection. If you operate in multiple states, you need to renew foreign registrations too.

Every state has its own rules, but most require an annual renewal with the Secretary of state, almost 90% of them. If you miss that annual filing, your LLC can be suspended, administratively dissolved, or stripped of its legal status entirely. This has nothing to do with your tax return. It's a separate requirement. And if you're operating in multiple states, you have foreign registrations that also need to be renewed. And an expired LLC is worse than no LLC at all, because you think you're protected when you're not.
