What are a business entity’s obligations to the Commission after registration?
Beginning in the calendar year after obtaining authority to transact business in Virginia, a foreign business entity is required to pay an annual registration fee. If the entity is a foreign corporation, it will also be required to file an annual report, which is generated by the Commission and mailed to the registered agent about 3 months before it is due. In addition, the business entity is required to file an authenticated copy of all instruments of amendment or merger within 30 days of the effective date of the instrument’s filing in the business entity’s home state. Additional information is available at Notice to Foreign Corporations and Notice to Foreign Limited Liability Companies.
