The 2027 window opens January 1, 2027. Corporations are due June 30, 2027, LLCs September 30, 2027, and LPs, LLPs and others December 31, 2027. 2027 is the first year a missed report can lead to administrative dissolution six months after the deadline.
2027 deadlines and enforcement dates
| Association | 2027 deadline | Administrative action possible after |
|---|---|---|
| Corporations (business & nonprofit) | June 30, 2027 | December 30, 2027 |
| LLCs | September 30, 2027 | March 30, 2028 |
| LPs, LLPs, business trusts, professional associations & others | December 31, 2027 | June 30, 2028 |
“Six months after the due date” is calculated here by calendar month; Pennsylvania also gives notice before acting. Treat these as the latest safe dates — file well before the deadline.
Why 2027 matters
Pennsylvania does not charge a state late fee. The consequence is administrative: beginning with Annual Reports due in 2027, an association that fails to file becomes subject to administrative action six months after its deadline:
- a domestic filing entity (corporation, LLC, LP and others) can be administratively dissolved;
- a domestic limited liability partnership can have its registration cancelled — it continues as a general partnership and loses its limited liability status;
- a foreign association can have its Pennsylvania registration terminated.
After that, the association loses the exclusive right to its name (another business may take it) and cannot obtain a subsistence certificate (certificate of good standing). A dissolved domestic entity may only wind up its affairs or apply for reinstatement.
Who files a 2027 report
Every covered association formed or registered in Pennsylvania in 2026 or earlier that is still active — including businesses filing for the first time.
Get ready
- Check your business and set a free reminder.
- Make sure your registered office is current — that is where Pennsylvania mails its postcard reminder.
- File early in the window; the report must be current on the day you file.
