- New Jersey keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. New Jersey administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is two reports behind, and the company then has to be reinstated.
Updated November 1, 2026. The fee, the deadline and the penalty above are New Jersey'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 New Jersey Form Asks
New Jersey takes the Annual Report online at njportal.com, with no account needed. It is run by the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, the office that keeps the company's record.
The Annual 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 Annual Report is due March 31, 2027, the last day of its anniversary month. After that it files by the same date every year.
Have ready before you start
- The company's exact legal name as New Jersey registered it
- Its New Jersey 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 New Jersey 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 New Jersey screens do.

How to File It Yourself
1. Open the New Jersey filing site
The Annual Report is filed with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services at njportal.com. No account is needed. New Jersey 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 New Jersey file or entity number, the number on the company's New Jersey 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 New Jersey.
4. Sign and pay the state
Sign as an authorized person and pay New Jersey's fee ($75 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 New Jersey filing site.
| File it yourself | Have it filed | |
|---|---|---|
| Account | None needed | None needed |
| Finding the company | You enter the New Jersey file or entity number | We look up the record and match it to your order |
| 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 New Jersey record before filing |
| Signing | An authorized person signs electronically | You authorize the filing at checkout and name the signer; the state's signature line is completed the way the state allows |
| State fee | Paid to the state by card at the end | Paid to the state on your behalf and itemized on the order review step |
| Timing | Any time the window is open (the last day of your anniversary month; the window opens 60 days before the due date) | Order any time; a report the state is not taking yet is held and filed the day the window opens |
| Confirmation | Shown on screen; save it yourself | The state's confirmation is emailed to you and kept on your order page |
| Registered agent change | A separate change filing with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services | Chosen on the order form; we file the change with the report order |
- Registered agent and registered office
- The person or company at a New Jersey 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 Annual Report lists them, usually with a business address for each, and some state screens call them governors, officials or principals.
- New Jersey file or entity number
- The number New Jersey 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 New Jersey Annual Report
- Filing an Annual Report for the year the LLC was formed: a company formed in 2026 owes its first in 2027, and the state is not waiting for one before that.
- Filing outside the window: the Annual 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.
- Looking the company up by name instead of its New Jersey 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 Annual Report: New Jersey takes the agent change as its own filing, before or after the report.
- Waiting too long: New Jersey keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. New Jersey administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is two reports behind, and the company then has to be reinstated.
After you file
njportal.com 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 New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services posts the Annual Report to the public record. Once posted, the company's status on the New Jersey 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 New Jersey business registry expects is the next Annual Report, a year later; taxes and licenses run on their own calendars with other agencies.
Changing Your Registered Agent
New Jersey's Annual Report confirms the registered agent on record but does not replace it. A new agent is its own change-of-agent filing with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, filed before or after the report.

Our registered agent partner's New Jersey address goes on the public record instead of yours, and legal and state mail is scanned and forwarded the same business day. We file New Jersey's change-of-agent form for you with the report order. Choose it on the order form.
File my report and switch my agent →How our registered agent service worksNew Jersey Annual Report: Questions
Can I file the New Jersey Annual Report online?+
Yes. New Jersey takes it online through the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services (njportal.com), with no account needed. 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 New Jersey Annual Report due?+
The last day of your anniversary month each year. The window opens 60 days before the due date. Order any time: if New Jersey is not accepting the report yet, we hold it and file it the day the state opens.
What if I missed the New Jersey deadline?+
New Jersey adds no late fee. New Jersey keeps taking the late report, with no late fee, through December 31 of the report year. New Jersey administratively dissolves or revokes an LLC that is two reports 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 New Jersey Annual Report every year?+
Every year. The deadline is the last day of your anniversary month, and it does not move with the calendar: a weekend or holiday deadline is still the deadline unless New Jersey says otherwise, so file ahead of it.
My LLC was formed this year. Do I file an Annual Report?+
Not this year. An LLC formed on March 15, 2026 owes nothing for 2026; its first Annual Report is due March 31, 2027, the last day of its anniversary month. After that it files by the same date every year. 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 New Jersey 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 njportal.com?+
No. The New Jersey filing site takes the Annual Report without an account; you start from the company's New Jersey file or entity number and pay at the end. When we file for you, we start from the same number.
Can I change my New Jersey registered agent at the same time?+
Yes. New Jersey takes the agent change as its own filing, separate from the Annual 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 New Jersey address replaces yours on the record.
Is America LLC Filing the New Jersey 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 New Jersey. The state's fee is the same whether you file at njportal.com yourself or we file for you.
