What happens if you miss the North Dakotan annual report deadline

  • Late fee: a flat $50 for an LLC. A corporation pays $20 if it files within 90 days of the due date and $60 after that.
  • Loss of good standing: Your entity is marked "not in good standing." This blocks loans, contracts, certain license applications.
  • Administrative dissolution: An LLC is involuntarily terminated six months after November 15. A corporation loses good standing three months after its due date and is dissolved a year after it. Reinstatement then costs $135 plus the past due report fees and penalty, and after a year it takes a district court petition in Burleigh County.
  • Personal liability exposure: Operating a dissolved entity can pierce the liability shield, exposing owners personally.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How much does the North Dakota annual report cost?

North Dakota sets the fee, and it varies widely, from nothing in a few states to a modest or substantial amount in others, sometimes flat and sometimes based on revenue, shares, or entity type. Because the figure changes and differs by entity, we show the current North Dakota amount before filing and pass it through at cost. Our service pricing is on the pricing page.

Does North Dakota charge different annual report fees by entity type?

Often yes: North Dakota frequently sets different fees, and sometimes different forms and schedules, for LLCs versus corporations versus nonprofits, and corporations sometimes owe more. Filing under the wrong classification causes errors. We confirm the correct North Dakota fee and form for your exact entity type so you pay the right amount on the right report, not a guess.

Are there late fees if I miss the North Dakota deadline?

A flat $50 for an LLC. A corporation pays $20 if it files within 90 days of the due date and $60 after that. An LLC is involuntarily terminated six months after November 15. A corporation loses good standing three months after its due date and is dissolved a year after it. Reinstatement then costs $135 plus the past due report fees and penalty, and after a year it takes a district court petition in Burleigh County. We track your North Dakotan due date and file automatically, so the question does not arise.

Who has to file the North Dakota annual report?

Most registered entities: LLCs, corporations, and often nonprofits and foreign entities registered in North Dakota generally must file on North Dakota's schedule to stay active, though a few states exempt certain types. If you are registered in North Dakota, assume you file unless told otherwise. We confirm your North Dakota obligation, and keep a reliable agent in place to receive the notices.

How often is the North Dakota annual report due?

It depends on North Dakota: many states require it every year, some every two years, and the due date may track your formation anniversary or a fixed calendar date. The cadence is not intuitive. We track your specific North Dakota schedule on a compliance calendar so you never miss the cycle or misjudge a biennial year.

Can I pay the North Dakota fee and file myself?

Yes, you can always file directly with North Dakota; it does not require a service. People use us to avoid missing the non-obvious deadline, to keep every entity's filings in one place, and to have the report reviewed before submission. It is a safety net against the most common cause of losing good standing, not a requirement, and the choice is yours.
