Arkansas annual report: a tax bill that never stops.

A franchise tax report, filed and paid at the Secretary of State: Arkansas folds the record refresh and a flat levy into one May 1 filing. There is no separate information-only report. We file and pay it as part of annual report service.

May 1, every year, for every registered entity, one statewide date landing just after tax season’s exhale. It belongs on a watched calendar in April at the latest, because the meter behind it never runs backward.

$150 flat for an LLC regardless of size or revenue, with a $25 penalty and ten percent interest stacking after May 1. When we file it for you, the total is the state fee plus a transaction fee plus our service fee, as a one-time filing or on the automated annual plan, itemized on the pricing page before you pay, so nothing quoted here can go stale.

The penalty and interest first, then charter revocation, and then the part that surprises everyone: the tax keeps accruing against the revoked entity until formal dissolution, withdrawal, or merger, and connected persons cannot form new Arkansas entities until the ledger settles. Reinstatement means paying all of it.

Yes, indefinitely: revocation stops the company’s rights, not its bill, and the ledger waits for whoever eventually needs clean hands, usually the founder of the next venture. Formal dissolution with the final tax settled is the only ending Arkansas recognizes, and the only one that stops the meter.

Yes, on the same May 1 at their statutory rates, with the same revocation and accrual behind nonpayment, on top of home-state obligations. Our multi-entity dashboard tracks every state you operate in.

Yes. We file and pay by May 1 every year, verify your standing after it posts, and when a company’s story ends, we end it properly, ledger settled, so the meter never outlives the business, with our fees itemized up front, one-time or on the automated plan.
