FAQ
If you still do not file, your corporation will lose its “good standing,” which may make it more difficult to run certain business operations. If you still do not file, your state agency will dissolve your corporation and strike it off the register.
What Happens If You Don't File? Usually a state will smack your business with a late penalty, as a kind of warning shot, to get you to file your annual report as soon as possible, and you'll usually have a second deadline before the state takes any further action against your business.

The Annual Report in Florida is usually due on or before May 1st of each year. This deadline is statutorily mandated for all businesses registered in the state of Florida. Failure to meet this deadline automatically results in a $400 fine and potentially in the dissolution or revocation of the business itself.
