The 30-day deadline for a new New York LLC
For an LLC formed or authorized after the law took effect, the clock starts with the initial articles filing or application for authority.
What the official record says
LLC Law §1107(d), effective January 1, 2026, states both deadlines. The trigger is the initial filing of articles of organization for a domestic LLC or the initial application for authority for a foreign LLC. It is not the date the company first invoices a customer, opens a bank account, or receives a reminder. The required submission differs according to whether the statute reads the LLC as a reporting company or an exempt company.
What to check on the document
Use the filed formation or authority record to anchor the date. Do not calculate from a draft, payment receipt for another service, or the date an organizer began work.
- Confirm whether the DOS record is an articles filing or an application for authority.
- Record the initial filing date exactly as shown in the public record.
- Map the LLC to disclosure or attestation before preparing the corresponding DOS fields.
How to use the result
The free check reads the public DOS record and gives the calendar date produced by the 30-day rule. If the reporting or exemption category depends on a fact outside that record, the email identifies the fact rather than guessing. You complete sensitive owner information only in the state portal. Keep the confirmation because the initial filing is followed by annual statements under §1107(g).
The worksheet maps the facts you provide to the words of LLC Law §1107 and marks any grey box for counsel. It does not decide a hard legal question. The filing belongs in the Department of State portal under the LLC owner’s control, with sensitive owner fields completed there rather than sent to us.
