Florida LLC tax treatment

No state personal income tax. By default the IRS treats single-member LLCs as disregarded entities and multi-member LLCs as partnerships. S-corp election can save self-employment tax once net income exceeds roughly $40,000-$60,000.

Florida annual report requirements

Annual report $138.75. Missing the deadline can trigger administrative dissolution, which may retroactively void the liability shield. Anonymousllc.co files the annual report on behalf of clients as part of the registered agent subscription.
