Annual reports are a critical compliance requirement for both Domestic and Foreign LLCs and Corporations operating in Puerto Rico. Ensuring your entity remains in good standing requires careful attention to deadlines, accurate filings, and proper documentation. Here, we explore the specifics of Puerto Rico’s annual reporting obligations and why partnering with International Business Company Formation, Inc. (IBCF) is the best choice to streamline your compliance process.
Key Deadlines and Requirements
In Puerto Rico, the annual report for both Domestic and Foreign LLCs and Corporations must be filed with the Puerto Rico Department of State by April 15th each year. This applies to entities actively conducting business as well as those maintaining registration for other purposes, such as holding assets or conducting research.
Failure to file the annual report on time can result in penalties, including fines, administrative dissolution, or revocation of the entity’s registration, which could severely impact operations.
What Information is Required?
The annual report typically includes:
- Updated contact information for the entity and its registered agent.
- Details on the entity’s officers, directors, or members.
- Financial information, including an annual statement of income for certain entities.
Some entities, such as LLCs, may also need to include additional documentation, depending on their structure and activities.
