File CA Statement of Information. Biennial. Required. Easily missed.

California requires every LLC and corporation registered in the state to file a Statement of Information biennially (LLC: SI-200; Corp: SI-550). The filing updates the state on officers, directors, agent for service of process, and principal office. Miss the deadline and the state suspends the entity, requiring revival plus penalty.

FAQ

About the California Statement of Information Service.

What is the California Statement of Information?
It is a required filing with the California Secretary of State that keeps your company's basic information, address, officers or managers, and agent, current on the public record. LLCs file it every two years and corporations every year, and missing it leads to penalties and loss of good standing. We track and file it so your California entity stays compliant.
Who has to file a Statement of Information in California?
California LLCs, corporations, and nonprofits must file, with corporations filing annually and LLCs biennially, and it applies whether the entity was formed in California or registered to do business there. We flag your filing frequency so your California entity does not miss its cycle.
How often is it due?
California corporations file every year and LLCs file every two years, based on the anniversary of registration, with an initial statement due within 90 days of forming. We track your specific due date so the annual or biennial filing is never missed by assuming the wrong frequency.
What happens if I miss the filing?
California can assess a penalty and place your entity into suspended or forfeited status, which strips your right to sue, defend, or do business in the state until you cure it, so a missed statement is a real problem. We track the deadline so your entity stays in good standing rather than falling into suspension.
What information does it require?
Your entity's address, the names and addresses of officers, directors, or managers and members as applicable, the registered agent, and the general type of business, so the public record reflects who runs the company and how to reach it. We prepare the filing so the information is accurate and complete.
Is the Statement of Information the same as an annual report?
It is California's version of what many states call an annual report, serving the same purpose of keeping entity information current, though California's frequency and form differ. We flag how it fits your overall compliance so a California entity's requirement is handled like any other state's periodic filing.
Do I need to file if nothing changed?
Yes: California requires the statement on its schedule even when no information has changed, and a no-change filing is still mandatory, so an unchanged entity is not exempt. We track the deadline so your entity files on time whether or not anything about it has changed since last cycle.
Does a suspended California entity affect my other states?
It can complicate matters: a California suspension can affect your ability to operate and enforce contracts in California and signals non-compliance, and if you are registered elsewhere, keeping every state current matters. We track your filings across states so one lapse does not cascade into wider problems.
Can File.Business handle my California filing?
Yes: we track your California Statement of Information due date, prepare the filing, and keep your entity's information current on the state record, so your California LLC or corporation stays in good standing without you having to watch the biennial or annual deadline yourself.
