AI Summary

This bill increases annual report filing fees for various business entities in Tennessee. Specifically, for for-profit and nonprofit corporations, the annual report filing fee will increase from $20 to $300. For limited liability companies (LLCs), the fee structure changes from a per-member basis to a flat fee system. LLCs will now pay a $100 initial filing fee and a $300 annual filing fee, regardless of the number of members. Additionally, if an LLC is prohibited from transacting business in the state, they will still be required to pay the $300 annual fee. The bill also maintains an additional $20 filing fee for LLCs that change their registered office or registered agent. These changes aim to standardize and increase revenue from business entity annual reporting. The new fee structure will take effect on July 1, 2025, giving businesses advance notice of the upcoming fee increases.
