What you pay, and when
| To form it | $50.00, once. |
| Every year after | $25.00. Michigan calls it an Annual Statement and it is due February 15 each year. An LLC formed after September 30 skips the February 15 straight after forming. |
| If you miss it | No fine for a standard LLC. Miss it for two years and the company stops being in good standing and the name goes back in the pool for anybody else to take. A professional LLC pays a $50 late fee after February 15. |
| Registered agent | Required. You can be your own if you have a street address in Michigan and do not mind it being public. |
