Indiana Business Entity Report at a Glance

Filing: Business Entity Report
Filed with: Indiana Secretary of State
Where online: inbiz.in.gov (account required)
State fee (LLC): $32
Due: The last day of your anniversary month in each report year
Filing window: The last day of your anniversary month; the window opens 60 days before the due date
Frequency: Every two years, counted from the year the LLC was formed (formed in 2026: 2028, then 2030)
State late penalty: None (the state adds no late fee)
If you miss it: Indiana keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. Indiana administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is one report behind, and the company then has to be reinstated.

Updated November 1, 2026. The fee, the deadline and the penalty above are Indiana's own, from the state's published schedule and statute, and the penalty is paid to the state, not to us. Every state's report is listed on the annual report directory.

What the Indiana Form Asks

Indiana takes the Business Entity Report online at inbiz.in.gov, behind an account login. It is run by the Indiana Secretary of State, the office that keeps the company's record.

The Business Entity Report confirms what the state has on file for the LLC: the principal office and mailing address, the registered agent and registered office, and the managers or members (some states' screens say governors, officials or principals). Anything that changed since the last filing is updated on it, and an authorized person signs it electronically before the state fee is paid.

Formed this year?

An LLC formed on March 15, 2026 owes nothing for 2026; its first Business Entity Report is due March 31, 2028, the last day of its anniversary month. After that it files every second year (2030, 2032).

Have ready before you start

The company's exact legal name as Indiana registered it
Its Indiana file or entity number, from the state's record or the formation approval
The principal office street address and the mailing address, if different
The registered agent's name and Indiana street address
The names and addresses of the managers or members on record
The name and title of the person signing, and a card for the state fee

Our order form asks for the same items, in the same order the Indiana screens do.

Indiana Business Entity Report Dates

First Business Entity Report for an Indiana LLC formed on the 15th of each month in 2026. Indiana sets the date from your own formation date, so your month is the row that matters, and the report then repeats every second year.

How to File It Yourself

1. Open the Indiana filing site
The Business Entity Report is filed with the Indiana Secretary of State at inbiz.in.gov. It asks you to sign in or create an account first. Indiana takes it the last day of your anniversary month; the window opens 60 days before the due date.
2. Find your company
Look it up by its Indiana file or entity number, the number on the company's Indiana record, not by name alone. Two companies can have near-identical names, and a report filed under the wrong number files the wrong company's report.
3. Confirm or update the details
The principal office and mailing address, the registered agent and registered office, and the managers or members on record. Anything that changed since the last filing goes in now; a new registered agent is a separate change filing in Indiana.
4. Sign and pay the state
Sign as an authorized person and pay Indiana's fee ($32 for an LLC). Save the confirmation; it is your proof of filing until the state's record shows the report.

Rather skip the state's site? We file it for you, and the state's confirmation comes to your inbox. To file it yourself, start at the Indiana filing site.

The details	You retype the addresses, the agent and the managers or members on the state's screens	You confirm them once on our form; we check them against the Indiana record before filing

Registered agent change	A separate change filing with the Indiana Secretary of State	Chosen on the order form; we file the change with the report order

Registered agent and registered office: The person or company at a Indiana street address that receives lawsuits and state notices for the LLC; a post office box does not qualify, and the agent's address is public.
Principal office and mailing address: Where the business is run, and the address the state should write to if that differs; both appear on the public record.
Managers or members: Who runs the LLC. The Business Entity Report lists them, usually with a business address for each, and some state screens call them governors, officials or principals.
Indiana file or entity number: The number Indiana gave the company when it was formed. It is on the approved formation document and on the state's business search, and it is how the filing finds the right record.
Good standing, dissolution and reinstatement: Good standing is the status a company keeps by filing on time. Administrative dissolution (some states say revocation or forfeiture) is what the state does to one that stops filing, and reinstatement is the filing that brings it back, with the missed reports and fees.

What Goes Wrong on the Indiana Business Entity Report

Filing a Business Entity Report for the year the LLC was formed: a company formed in 2026 owes its first in 2028, and the state is not waiting for one before that.
Filing outside the window: the Business Entity Report is due the last day of your anniversary month, and the window opens 60 days before the due date; the state's system does not take it earlier.
Filing in an off year: Indiana's report falls every second year, counted from the formation year, so a company formed in 2026 has no 2029 report.
Looking the company up by name instead of its Indiana file or entity number: two companies can carry near-identical names, and the report then updates the wrong record.
Trying to change the registered agent on the Business Entity Report: Indiana takes the agent change as its own filing, before or after the report.
Waiting too long: Indiana keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. Indiana administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is one report behind, and the company then has to be reinstated.

After you file

inbiz.in.gov shows a confirmation and sends a receipt to the filer's email; keep it with the company's records, because it is the proof of filing until the Indiana Secretary of State posts the Business Entity Report to the public record. Once posted, the company's status on the Indiana business search stays active, which is what a bank, a lender, a landlord or a licensing board checks before it opens an account, extends credit or renews a license. A certificate of status or good standing, where one of them asks for paper proof, is a separate document the state issues on request. The next thing the Indiana business registry expects is the next Business Entity Report, two years later; taxes and licenses run on their own calendars with other agencies.

Changing Your Registered Agent

Indiana's Business Entity Report confirms the registered agent on record but does not replace it. A new agent is its own change-of-agent filing with the Indiana Secretary of State, filed before or after the report.

Registered agent service through America LLC Filing

Our registered agent partner's Indiana address goes on the public record instead of yours, and legal and state mail is scanned and forwarded the same business day. We file Indiana's change-of-agent form for you with the report order. Choose it on the order form.

Indiana Business Entity Report: Questions

Can I file the Indiana Business Entity Report online?+

Yes. Indiana takes it online through the Indiana Secretary of State (inbiz.in.gov), after you sign in or create an account. If you would rather not, we file it for you: one short form with your company's details, and we submit it to the state.

When is the Indiana Business Entity Report due?+

The last day of your anniversary month in each report year. The window opens 60 days before the due date. Order any time: if Indiana is not accepting the report yet, we hold it and file it the day the state opens.

What if I missed the Indiana deadline?+

Indiana adds no late fee. Indiana keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. Indiana administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is one report behind, and the company then has to be reinstated. We file late reports while the state still takes them; the state's penalty, where there is one, is paid to the state with its fee.

Is the Indiana Business Entity Report every year?+

Every two years, counted from the year the LLC was formed (formed in 2026: 2028, then 2030). In the years between, Indiana has nothing to take from your LLC, and a report sent in an off year is not what the state is waiting for. The dates table above shows which years are yours.

My LLC was formed this year. Do I file a Business Entity Report?+

Not this year. An LLC formed on March 15, 2026 owes nothing for 2026; its first Business Entity Report is due March 31, 2028, the last day of its anniversary month. After that it files every second year (2030, 2032). A report filed for the formation year is not required, and the state's system will either refuse it or treat it as next year's.

What do I need to file it?+

The company's exact legal name and its Indiana file or entity number, the principal and mailing address, the registered agent on record, and the managers or members. We ask for the same on our order form, so nothing is missing when we file.

Do I need an account on inbiz.in.gov?+

Yes. The Indiana filing site asks you to sign in or register before it opens the Business Entity Report When we file for you, our filer's account is used and nothing is created in your name.

Can I change my Indiana registered agent at the same time?+

Yes. Indiana takes the agent change as its own filing, separate from the Business Entity Report; choose our registered agent service on our order form and we file that change for you with the report order, so our partner's Indiana address replaces yours on the record.

Is America LLC Filing the Indiana state office?+

No. America LLC Filing is a private filing service, not a government agency and not a law firm, and it is not affiliated with Indiana. The state's fee is the same whether you file at inbiz.in.gov yourself or we file for you.
