How This Calculator Works
Calculation methodology and assumptions
LLC formation costs in Indiana include the state filing fee ($95), the recurring business entity report ($32/year), registered agent fees, and optional costs like an operating agreement. EIN registration with the IRS is free. This calculator provides a comprehensive first-year and multi-year cost projection for forming and maintaining an LLC in Indiana. Indiana calls this a Business Entity Report and bills it every two years: $32 online or $50 by mail per filing. Formation is $95 online or $100 by mail. The filing is due the anniversary month, every second year.
Key State Information
Indiana LLC filing fee: $95. Business Entity Report Fee: $32 per filing. Indiana's LLC filing fee is moderate. Note: Indiana bills this filing every two years, so the figure above is the cost of one filing, not a yearly charge.
Example Calculation
Let's calculate the cost to form and maintain an LLC in Indiana.
Forming a single-member LLC in Indiana: state filing fee $95, registered agent service (~$125/year), EIN from IRS (free), and a DIY operating agreement (free, or $500-$1,500 with an attorney). Indiana's annual report/franchise tax is $31/year.
Result: Year 1 total: approximately $220 (plus any optional attorney fees). Ongoing annual cost: approximately $156/year. Nationally, filing fees range from $35 (Montana) to $500 (Massachusetts) and recurring state costs range from $0 (several states) to $800/year (California) — so Indiana's cost may be far cheaper, or more expensive, than forming elsewhere. Don't form in Delaware or Wyoming just for their reputation — you'll still need to register as a foreign LLC at home and pay both states.
