2026 – Misleading Mailing/Email
The North Carolina Secretary of State’s Office has been made aware of misleading letters from a company called Business Filing LLC seeking seeking $154 fees to assist in the filing of company annual reports.
Remember that LLCs can file Annual Reports directly with the NC Secretary of State's Office for a $200 fee. The annual report fee for business corporations is $25.
Always read the fine print and reach out to the Secretary of State's Office if you receive a suspicious mailing seeking hefty fees to file a document with our Department.
