Form Your Washington LLC

Washington has no personal state income tax. However, Washington imposes a Business & Occupation (B&O) tax on gross receipts. Rates vary by business type, typically 0.471% to 1.5%. This applies to all businesses operating in Washington.

Washington annual reports are due by the last day of your LLC's formation anniversary month. Our annual compliance, $299/year or included with Managed LLC ($149/month), handles the filing, deadline tracking, and good standing maintenance for you.
