Your company was administratively dissolved. You can reinstate it or dissolve it properly.
One missed annual report is enough for Wyoming or Florida to dissolve an LLC or a corporation. The company loses its right to do business, while the IRS still expects its returns. There are two clean ways out: reinstatement or voluntary dissolution. Both are below, with every state fee shown.

Administratively dissolved is not the same as closed
Administrative dissolution is a penalty status set by the state. The company was not wound up. The state stopped recognising its right to operate, and every obligation outside the state record stays in place.
No right to do business
An administratively dissolved company may only wind up its affairs. New contracts, sales and invoices are outside what it is allowed to do.
Banks check status
Banks and payment providers verify good standing. A dissolved status can lead to a compliance review, a payout hold or a closed account.
Liability shield at risk
Business carried on after dissolution can be treated as the owner's personal activity, not the company's.
IRS penalties keep running
The state does not notify the IRS. The EIN stays open and every federal return is still due. A missed Form 1065 or 1120-S costs $255 per owner per month, up to 12 months. A missed Form 5472 costs $25,000 per form.
File before the new year and skip one more annual report
In Florida, a reinstatement filed on or after January 1 must also include the new year's annual report. This applies to both paths: a dissolved company has to be reinstated before it can be dissolved voluntarily.
Wyoming works by anniversary month: each new anniversary month adds one more $60 report.
Wyoming and Florida
| Wyoming | Florida | |
|---|---|---|
| Annual report due | First day of the company's anniversary month | Between January 1 and May 1, every year |
| Administrative dissolution | 60 days after the due date if the report is still not filed | Fourth Friday of September if the report is still not filed |
| Annual report fee | $60, or $0.0002 per dollar of assets in Wyoming if higher | LLC $138.75 · Corporation $150 |
| Reinstatement fee | $100, plus each missed annual report | LLC $100 · Corporation $600, plus each missed annual report |
| $400 late fee | Wyoming has no late fee | Not charged on reinstatement. It applies only to a late report filed while the company is still active |
| Voluntary dissolution | Possible only for a company in good standing. An administratively dissolved company is reinstated first, then files articles of dissolution | |
| Time limit | 2 years from dissolution. After that the company cannot be reinstated | No fixed limit. After one year the state checks that the name is still free |

Reinstatement or voluntary dissolution
Bring the company back
For a company you still use. Reinstatement relates back to the dissolution date: the company is treated as if it had never been dissolved, and keeps its name, EIN and bank history.
- Check of the state record and every missed annual report
- All missed annual reports prepared and filed
- Reinstatement application filed with the state
- All state fees paid by us from your order
- Certificate of reinstatement in your client portal
- Compliance Calendar, so the next report is not missed
Dissolve the company for good
For a company you no longer need. The state accepts articles of dissolution only from a company in good standing, so we reinstate it first and dissolve it right after. The EIN account is then closed with the IRS, so no new returns or penalties follow.
- Reinstatement: missed annual reports and the reinstatement application
- Articles of dissolution filed with the state
- Letter to the IRS to close the EIN account, sent by certified mail
- Mail receipt kept as proof of delivery
- All documents in your client portal
- Reminder before the final tax return is due
