States that require Annual Reports to be filed by April 15th

Submitted by UCS on April 2, 2021

Maryland
2021 Annual Reports and/or Personal Property Tax Returns must be filed for all domestic and foreign business entities with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT) no later than Thursday, April 15. If you request a two-month filing extension through SDAT’s online extension system, your filings will be due to the Department no later than Tuesday, June 15. The quickest and easiest way to submit these filings is through the department’s award-winning Maryland Business Express website. If you do not submit these critical filings by the appropriate deadline, your business will lapse into “Not In Good Standing” status, which eventually leads to forfeiture. Please note that SDAT will not be granting extensions through July 15, as was the case last year.

Annual Report filing requirements: Please be advised that effective January 1, 2021, all legal entities (including foreign entities and domestic non-stock corporations) will be required to file all past-due Annual Reports to revive, reinstate, re-register, or re-qualify with the Department.
