Stay in good standing

Florida LLC compliance for Quebec snowbirds and remote owners

Sunbiz annual reports, FinCEN BOI filings, EIN setup, W-8BEN, and 1099s, handled on time so your Florida LLC stays compliant and penalty-free, in English or French.

Sunbiz on time

FinCEN BOI

EIN & W-8BEN

1099 prep

Compliance without the worry

Deadlines you cannot afford to miss

Owning a Florida LLC from abroad means a calendar of filings that are easy to miss and expensive to forget: the Sunbiz annual report (a 400 dollar late penalty), FinCEN beneficial ownership (BOI), EIN and banking paperwork, and 1099s for contractors. We track these deadlines, prepare the filings, and keep your LLC in good standing so a missed form never turns into a frozen account or a fine.

Compliance without the worry

Staying compliant is far cheaper than fixing a dissolved LLC, a frozen bank account, or a stack of penalties.

Miss enough deadlines and your LLC can be administratively dissolved. We prevent that.

03

Protect your banking

Banks and payment processors expect a compliant, in-good-standing entity.

04

Stay off the radar

Clean, on-time filings keep you out of trouble with the IRS, FinCEN, and the state.

We carry the calendar so you can focus on your business and your winters.
