How to Form an LLC in Kansas
A Kansas Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a legal structure used to protect your personal assets (home, car, bank account) in the event your business is sued.
An LLC can be used to operate a business, or an LLC can be used to hold assets (such as real estate, vehicles, boats, or aircraft).
Forming an LLC in Kansas is simple. Search your Kansas LLC name in the state database and select your Resident Agent.
File your Articles of Organization with the Kansas Secretary of State and wait for your LLC to be approved.
If you file your LLC by mail, the filing fee is $165 and approval time is 3-5 business days. If you file your LLC online, the filing fee is $160 and the approval time is 24 hours or less.
After your Kansas LLC is approved, complete your Operating Agreement and get your Federal Tax ID Number (aka EIN) from the IRS.
In order to keep your Kansas LLC in compliance, you also need to file an LLC Annual Report every year. The fee is $55 if you file by mail and $50 if you file online.
