Nebraska Biennial Report: What You Need to Know
A clean Nebraska registered agent setup for $99 per year. You get the office address on file, scanned legal mail, and compliance reminders ahead of state deadlines.
Looking for the Nebraska annual report? For an LLC, there is no such filing. The state runs on a two-year cycle, and the document you actually owe is the biennial report under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 21-125(b). It comes due only in odd-numbered years, which makes 2026 a quiet year for Nebraska LLCs: the next filing window is January 1 through April 1, 2027.
Key Facts
- Cycle: Biennial, odd-numbered years only (2027, 2029, and so on)
- Window: Opens January 1, closes April 1 of the filing year
- Fee: $25 filed electronically, $30 filed in writing, per Neb. Rev. Stat. § 21-192 (online filings add a portal transaction fee of about $2)
- Filed with: Nebraska Secretary of State, Business Services Division
- Skipped filing: Administrative dissolution, effective 60 days after the state's notice (§ 21-130)
One planning note: for-profit corporations flip the parity and file in even-numbered years. If you run both an LLC and a corporation, the two entities report in alternating years.
The Due Date: April 1 of Odd-Numbered Years
Nebraska accepts the LLC report starting January 1 of each odd-numbered year and treats April 1 of that year as the deadline. Anything after April 1 is delinquent.
A new company's first report lands in the first odd-numbered year after the calendar year it was formed. An LLC organized in 2026 therefore files its first biennial report in the January 1 to April 1, 2027 window.
Nebraska's Report Fee: $25 Electronic, $30 Written
Ready when you are. Ordering takes about five minutes.

Older guides still quote $13. That number has been obsolete since the state's July 1, 2021 fee overhaul, so budget $25 or $30 instead. Need to correct a report after it is filed? The state offers an amendment filing at $30 per report year.
What Goes in the Report
Less than you might think. The Nebraska biennial report is essentially a confirmation of your addresses and registered agent details. Member and manager names stay off it, and so do your EIN, industry codes, and any description of what the company does.
Two wrinkles worth knowing:
- The report cannot swap your registered agent or office. Nebraska routes those updates through a separate Statement of Change filing, covered on our change of agent page.
- Foreign LLCs add two extra items: the home jurisdiction where the company was formed and any alternate name it registered for use in Nebraska.
How to File the Report: Five Steps
- Confirm your year. Odd-numbered years only, and the window is January 1 through April 1.
- Pull up your record. Have the exact entity name on file, your designated office address, and your registered agent's details in front of you.
- Choose electronic or written. Online submission through the state's system is $25; a written filing is $30. The Secretary of State's annual and biennial reporting page is the official starting point.
- Pay when you submit. $25 plus the portal charge online, $30 in writing.
- File the confirmation away. Keep proof of the submission with your records in case a bank or licensing board wants evidence of good standing.
If You Miss the Window
Ready when you are. Ordering takes about five minutes.
Order HereApril 2 of a filing year, with no report on record, means your LLC is delinquent. The Secretary of State can then start administrative dissolution, which under § 21-130 becomes effective 60 days after the state serves notice. A foreign LLC faces the parallel penalty, revocation of its certificate of authority under § 21-176.
Dissolution unwinds far more than it seems. Contracts, banking, and liability protection all get shakier, and reinstatement takes paperwork and additional fees. Against a $25 filing every other year, there is no contest.
Where We Fit In
The report itself goes from you to the Secretary of State; it is not something we file on your behalf. What we do is make sure it never slips: we track your LLC's filing year, remind you before the January 1 window opens, and, as your registered agent, receive and scan any state correspondence about your report the day it arrives.
All of that is part of the $99-a-year registered agent service, with no add-on charge.
