Important: No Late Fees, But Dissolution Risk
Indiana doesn't charge late fees for failing to file your Business Entity Report on time. However, if no report is submitted within 60 days after your due date, your business may be administratively dissolved or revoked. This can impact your ability to conduct business, access banking services, and enter into contracts. Reinstatement can be costly and time-consuming.
