Doing Business in Kansas

Business Maintenance

All Kansas Corporations and LLCs Must File: 

• Articles of Incorporation
  Articles of Incorporation or Articles of Organization are filed with the Kansas Secretary of State. The cost to form a Kansas corporation is $85 online or $90 by paper. A Kansas LLC costs $165 by paper or $160 online.
• Beneficial Ownership Information Report
  Nearly all businesses formed by filing with the state of Kansas must file a federal Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Report with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) following business formation. You can file online through FinCEN at no cost. Or, take advantage of our professional BOI report filing service for just $9.
• Biennial Report
  Kansas corporations and LLCs must file the Kansas Biennial Report every two years after incorporation. The report is due the 15th day of the fourth month following your tax closing month. For most businesses, the tax closing month is December, so the report is due on April 15 of the following year. The business report fee is $100 if you file online of $110 if you file by mail.
