Do I need an EIN?

An EIN (IRS Tax ID) identifies your business for taxes and is commonly requested by banks and payment platforms. Even single-member LLCs often obtain an EIN for banking, payroll, and marketplace/processor verification.

  • Needed if you hire employees or file certain taxes
  • Frequently requested by Stripe/marketplaces for verification
  • Makes business banking and vendor setup smoother

Florida specifics — what to know

Is a Registered Agent mandatory?

Yes. Florida requires every LLC to list a Registered Agent with a Florida street address who consents to serve. Filings without an RA are not accepted.

How much is the Florida state fee?

Florida’s LLC formation fee is $125 total (filing + RA designation). This is paid to the state at formation.

Annual report & deadlines

Florida’s annual report is $138.75 and due by May 1 each year. Filing after May 1 adds a $400 state late fee.

Do I need an EIN?

If you hire employees or file certain taxes, you need an EIN. Many banks and payment processors also request an EIN for verification and payouts.
