Utah businesses are generally expected to file an annual renewal each year to maintain their information current with the state and preserve good standing. Understanding these requirements helps you avoid penalties, late fees, and potential administrative dissolution of your business entity.
Utah's annual renewal is the state's version of an annual report. It updates your business information with the Utah Division of Corporations and confirms your business remains active and in good standing. This filing is not a financial document or tax return—it is an administrative process that keeps your business details current in state records.
The renewal helps the state maintain accurate records of active businesses and ensures they can reach your company when needed for official correspondence or legal notifications.
Filing Cadence Utah requires annual renewals to be filed once per year. The specific due date depends on your entity type and formation date. Missing your deadline results in late fees and may eventually lead to administrative dissolution if left unresolved.
Filing Fee The annual renewal fee in Utah is very affordable at $18 per year, as of the July 1, 2025 fee schedule. This is among the lowest annual fees in the country, making Utah an attractive state for business operations from a cost perspective.
Late Renewal Fee If you miss your annual renewal deadline, Utah assesses a $10 late renewal fee in addition to the standard $18 renewal fee. This brings your total cost to $28 if you file late.
Where to File You file your annual renewal with the Utah Division of Corporations. Their website at https://corporations.utah.gov/ provides online filing options, instructions, and resources specific to your business entity type.
Formation Context Utah's affordability extends to formation as well. The LLC formation fee is just $59, which combined with the $18 annual renewal creates one of the most cost-effective business environments in the United States.
Your annual renewal generally includes:
Most of this information remains the same from year to year unless you have made changes to your business structure, leadership, or registered agent. The filing process is straightforward, particularly when using the online system.
Failing to file your annual renewal on time can create several problems:
Late Fees Utah assesses a $10 late renewal fee if you file after your deadline. While this is relatively modest compared to some states, it is an unnecessary expense that can be avoided with proper planning and reminders.
Loss of Good Standing Your business entity may fall out of good standing with the state, which can affect your ability to conduct certain transactions, obtain financing, or maintain professional licenses.
Administrative Dissolution If you continue to miss annual renewal filings, the Utah Division of Corporations may administratively dissolve your entity. Reinstating a dissolved business requires additional paperwork, fees, and time.
Notices to Registered Agent Before taking serious action, the state typically sends notices to your registered agent address. This is one reason having a reliable registered agent service is valuable—you will receive these warnings immediately and have the opportunity to address any filing deficiencies.
While we do not file your annual renewal for you (that remains your responsibility or your attorney's or accountant's), we support your compliance in several important ways:
Compliance Reminders We send alerts when your annual renewal deadline is approaching. These reminders help ensure you do not miss the filing window and face the $10 late fee or more serious consequences.
Document Receipt If the Utah Division of Corporations sends notices about your annual renewal to your registered agent address, we receive them, scan them on the same day, and forward them to you electronically. You will see these notices immediately through our online portal.
Stable Registered Agent Information Your annual renewal includes your registered agent details. When you use Utah Registered Agent, that information remains consistent year after year. You will not need to update your registered agent section unless you choose to change services.
Affordable Combined Service At $99 per year for registered agent service combined with Utah's $18 annual renewal fee, your total annual compliance costs typically run about $117. This is very manageable compared to many other states where annual fees alone can exceed this amount.
Utah's fee structure stands out for its affordability:
