Mississippi annual report: free to file, weeks to undo.
Mississippi asks domestic LLCs for an annual report between January 1 and April 15 and charges exactly nothing for it, filed online only. The teeth come later: let the free filing slide roughly sixty days and administrative dissolution follows, and the road back does not run through the Secretary of State alone, it runs through a tax clearance letter from the Department of Revenue, which takes weeks you will not enjoy. The cheapest filing in the South has the slowest undo.
This year's report, prepared and filed with the Secretary of State, with your standing verified after it posts.
Four facts cover the whole system
A once-a-year confirmation filed online with the Secretary of State: addresses, registered agent, and officials refreshed on the record, free for domestic LLCs. What we file for you →
Between January 1 and April 15, every year, sharing its deadline with the tax returns that bury it: the CPA files the taxes, and nobody owns the free report. Put it on a watched calendar →
Nothing, for domestic LLCs, filed online only; foreign entities pay a real fee on the same window. 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.
Roughly sixty days of silence invites administrative dissolution, and reinstatement is gated behind a Department of Revenue tax clearance letter, a process measured in weeks while your record reads dissolved.

Nothing to pay by April 15, weeks to recover after
The Mississippi annual report is free for domestic LLCs, due between January 1 and April 15, online only. Roughly sixty days of silence invites administrative dissolution, and reinstatement requires a tax clearance letter from the Department of Revenue before the Secretary of State will act, a detour measured in weeks. Free on time, slow when late, and the difference is a calendar.
Where you stand decides what you do next
Open: file now, free, five minutes. Closed: file today, because the sixty-day path is open and the filing still costs nothing, which makes this the cheapest emergency you will ever resolve.
Start the clearance immediately: the Department of Revenue letter is the long pole, and reinstatement files the moment it arrives. We run both halves in parallel and confirm the record when it flips.
It eats everyone’s: the CPA owns April 15 for taxes and nobody owns it for the free filing. Our watched calendar files it in January, before the season starts.
Dissolved over nothing, restored over weeks
The report was free, which is exactly why nobody owned it: our CPA owned the taxes due the same day, and the zero-dollar filing belonged to no one. Dissolution came quietly, and then the real bill: a tax clearance letter from Revenue before the state would even read our reinstatement, three and a half weeks while a contract waited. Mississippi charges nothing on time and weeks when late.

What is the Mississippi annual report?
A once-a-year filing with the Secretary of State, online only, confirming your addresses, registered agent, and officials on the record, free for domestic LLCs. We prepare and file it on time as part of annual report service.
When is the Mississippi annual report due?
Between January 1 and April 15, every year, sharing its close with tax day, which is how the free filing loses its owner. It belongs on a watched calendar in January, before the season starts and the CPA takes over the date.
How much does the Mississippi annual report cost?
Nothing for domestic LLCs, one of the few genuinely free reports in the country, filed online only; foreign entities pay a real fee on the same window. 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 Mississippi annual report?
Roughly sixty days of silence invites administrative dissolution, over a filing that cost zero. Reinstatement then waits on a Department of Revenue tax clearance letter before the Secretary of State acts, a detour measured in weeks while the dissolved record sits in public view.
Why does Mississippi reinstatement take weeks?
Because of the clearance gate: the Secretary of State will not process a reinstatement until the Department of Revenue certifies the tax account clean, and that letter moves on Revenue’s schedule, not yours. We file the clearance request and the reinstatement in parallel, which is the only real acceleration available.
Do foreign-registered entities file a Mississippi annual report too?
Yes, in the same window, at a real fee rather than free, with the same dissolution path behind silence, on top of home-state filings. Our multi-entity dashboard tracks every state you operate in.
Can File.Business file my Mississippi annual report?
Yes. We file the free report each January, before tax season buries the date, and verify your standing after it posts, with our transaction fee and service fee itemized up front, one-time or on the automated plan, so the free filing never earns its weeks-long undo.
