California LLC Annual Franchise Tax A California LLC, like all entities in California, must pay the state's annual Franchise Tax. This tax is $800 for all California LLCs. The annual Franchise Tax is due the 15th day of the fourth month after the beginning of the tax year. You must file Form 3522 (LLC Tax Voucher).

Although California law uses the same entity classification as federal, LLCs classified as partnerships and disregarded LLCs must do all of the following: File Form 568. Pay an annual tax of $800 (refer to Annual Tax Section); and.

California LLCs don't pay an $800 fee for their 1st year (if the LLC is formed after January 1st, 2021). This completely eliminates the back-to-back $1,600 payment issue! And it moves an LLC's first $800 payment 12-16 months after the LLC is approved.

Newly incorporated or qualified corporations are not required to pay the minimum franchise tax in their first taxable year.
