In Florida, as in many other states, corporations and LLCs must adhere to the State filing requirements. This is includes filing the annual report by May 1 of each year. All business-related activities must adhere to the corporation or LLC’s governing documents. If you do not have any corporate documents or signed corporate documents, you need to speak with an attorney. This is an often-overlooked requirement for small businesses.
