Own an LLC formed or authorized to do business in New York? You must file a Biennial Statement every two years with the NY Department of State. The state filing fee is $9.
Here’s how to file online:
Have your LLC information ready. You’ll need the exact LLC name and its Department of State DOS ID number. You can find both in New York’s Corporation & Business Entity Database.
Visit the official filing website: https://filing.dos.ny.gov/eBiennialWeb/
Enter your LLC’s information and follow the prompts to access its Biennial Statement.
Review and update the mailing address where the Secretary of State should send legal papers served on your LLC.
Submit the statement and pay $9 using an accepted credit or debit card: Visa, Mastercard, or American Express.
Save your confirmation and payment receipt with your business records.
When is it due? Every two years during the calendar month your LLC was originally formed or authorized in New York. For example, an LLC formed in October 2024 files its next statement during October 2026. Do not file before your due month.
Already past due? You can still file online. If the system won’t allow it, contact the NY Department of State’s Statement Unit to request a paper form.
Set a reminder every two years so you don’t miss your filing month!
