Kansas annual report: biennial now, and it means it.

Kansas retired the annual report: since 2024 the information report is biennial, due April 15 of years matching your formation year’s parity, even with even, odd with odd, at $100 filed online for an LLC. The state grants exactly three months of delinquency after the deadline, and then the record reads Forfeited, a word Kansas enforces literally: no filings, no standing, no exceptions, until reinstatement.

ACCURACY VERIFIED

This year's report, prepared and filed with the Secretary of State, with your standing verified after it posts.

The report, decoded

Four facts cover the whole system

1 · What changed, and when

Kansas switched from annual to biennial reporting effective 2024: entities formed in even years now report in even years, odd in odd, one report per two-year cycle. Checklists written before the switch are wrong in both directions. What we file for you →

2 · When it is due

April 15 of your parity year for for-profit entities, sharing tax day the way the old annual version did, just half as often, which makes it twice as forgettable. Put your years on a watched calendar →

3 · What it costs

$100 filed online for an LLC, $110 on paper, once per two-year cycle. 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.

4 · What happens if you miss it

A three-month delinquency window opens, the state’s entire allowance, and at its end the record reads Forfeited: every further filing blocked until reinstatement settles the missed reports.

April 15, in your formation’s year

Three months of grace, then Forfeited means it

ACTIVE / GOOD STANDINGCurrent on the biennial information report, filed by April 15 of the entity’s parity year.
OFF YEARNothing due, correctly: the other half of the state is filing while you are not. The rhythm is new since 2024, and so are the mistakes.
DELINQUENT · 3 MONTHSApril 15 of the on year passed unfiled and the state’s entire patience is running: three months, no extensions.
FORFEITEDThe window closed. A forfeited Kansas entity cannot file anything else, and its authority is gone until reinstatement settles the record.
REINSTATEDThe road back: missed reports, fees, and the application together, with the forfeiture preserved in the history counterparties read.

The Kansas information report is biennial since 2024: due April 15 of years matching your formation year’s parity, $100 online for an LLC. Three months of delinquency follow a missed deadline, and then the record reads Forfeited, blocking every further filing until reinstatement. The rhythm changed recently enough that most checklists have not.

The deadline is step one

Where you stand decides what you do next

You are not sure which year is yours

It matches your formation year’s parity: formed in an even year, you report in even years, odd in odd. We read it from the record, not from a pre-2024 checklist, and set the calendar permanently.

You are inside the three months

File now: the overdue $100 report inside the delinquency window closes the matter completely, and the window is the state’s entire allowance. After it, Forfeited is not a figure of speech.

Your company shows Forfeited

Reinstatement with the missed reports and fees settled restores the record and unblocks filings. We run the package at once and confirm the flip.

The checklist the law outdated

They filed like it was annual, Kansas had moved on

The biennial arithmetic, counted out in change
Our checklist said Kansas, annual report, April 15, and it had been right for a decade. Then the state went biennial and the checklist became a trap in both directions: one year we filed into a system that wanted nothing, and the next, when it wanted the report, the checklist said done. Three months of delinquency later we were a week from Forfeited. The deadline never changed. The years did.

When does my Kansas company actually report now?

Every other year since the 2024 switch: April 15 of years matching your formation year’s parity, even with even, odd with odd, $100 filed online. In the off year, nothing is due at all. I read your parity from the record and keep the right Aprils on the calendar.

I missed my April. How much time do I really have?

Three months, total, and Kansas does not extend it: the delinquency window is the state’s entire allowance, and at its end the record reads Forfeited, which blocks every further filing. The overdue $100 report filed inside the window closes the matter. I can file it today.

The vendor I am checking shows Forfeited. Can they even sign our contract?

They should not: a forfeited Kansas entity has no authority and cannot make filings until reinstatement settles the missed reports. The fix is theirs and it is routine if they act. Make the restored record your precondition; I will confirm when it clears.

Frequently asked

Kansas Annual Report questions.

What is the Kansas information report?

Kansas’s name for the report, biennial since 2024: a filing with the Secretary of State every other year confirming your addresses, registered agent, and officials. We track your parity year and file as part of annual report service.

When is the Kansas information report due?

April 15 of years matching your formation year’s parity: entities formed in even years report in even years, odd in odd, for-profit deadlines sharing tax day. The biennial rhythm is recent, which is why it belongs on a watched calendar rather than a pre-2024 checklist.

How much does the Kansas information report cost?

$100 filed online for an LLC, $110 on paper, once per two-year cycle. 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.

What happens if I miss the Kansas deadline?

A three-month delinquency window opens, the state’s entire patience, and at its end the record reads Forfeited: no further filings, no standing, no authority, until reinstatement settles the missed reports and fees. Kansas uses the word literally.

Didn’t Kansas used to require this every year?

Yes, through 2023: the switch to biennial reporting took effect in 2024, cutting the frequency in half and invalidating a decade of annual-rhythm checklists in both directions, filing when nothing is due and skipping when something is. We file on the current law’s calendar.

Do foreign-registered entities file the Kansas report too?

Yes, on the same parity cycle and April 15 date at the same fees, with forfeiture of authority as their consequence, on top of home-state filings. Our multi-entity dashboard keeps every state’s rhythm straight, including the ones that recently changed.

Can File.Business file my Kansas information report?

Yes. We read your parity from the record, file by April 15 of every reporting year, and verify your standing after it posts, with the state fee, transaction fee, and our service fee itemized up front, one-time or on the automated plan.
