Guidelines for Annual Reports Online

Online filing of the annual report is now mandatory for all business entities. When using the online system to file an annual report, you will need to be aware of some key points.

• 3 pieces of information will be required to enter the system
  • 10-digit corporation number
  • the month and year the business was formed or authorized to do business in New Jersey
  • the business type
• payment options are e-check, credit card, and depository account. There is no convenience fee for the use of credit cards.
• immediate confirmation will be provided upon the successful conclusion of the filing and payment.
• when using the system, click the submit button only once. This will eliminate possible duplicate submissions and/or the rejection of the transaction.
• all outstanding reports must be filed. You will not be able to select which outstanding reports to submit and pay.
• valid data must be provided. Submitting inaccurate information (i.e. listing "Micky Mouse" as the registered agent) will negate the filing and the fees will be forfeited.
• appropriate information for businesses with special circumstances (i.e. issues with the filing status) will be provided during the online session.

As a result of the electronic filing mandate, annual report filing in person or over-the-counter is no longer accepted.
