You can visit the Department of Revenue&#8217;s website to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dor.ms.gov\/business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">register a new tax account<\/a>&nbsp;for your LLC.<\/p>\n<h3>State Employer Tax<\/h3>\n<p>If your LLC has employees, you have to register withholding tax with the Department of Revenue and withhold the state&#8217;s income tax from your LLC&#8217;s employee wages. You also need to register, report, file, and pay your LLC&#8217;s unemployment insurance tax.<\/p>\n<h3>Sales and Use Taxes<\/h3>\n<p>If your LLC engages in the sale of tangible personal property in the State of Mississippi, it&#8217;s subject to the 7% sales tax, unless exempted or reduced by state law. Your LLC must obtain a permit or registration license from the Department of Revenue before engaging in any business in Mississippi subject to sales tax.<\/p>\n<p>If your LLC acquires personal property in any manner for use, storage, or consumption within Mississippi for which sales or use tax has not been paid to another state at an equal rate to that of Mississippi, it&#8217;s also subject to the state use tax.<\/p>\n<h3>Business Licenses and Permits<\/h3>\n<p>Depending on the type of business your LLC conducts and its location, you may be required to obtain additional licenses and permits. You could need specific permits or licenses if your LLC is involved with the sale of alcohol, tobacco, and food, affects the environment, or offers a professional service. There are many other types of federal, state, and local permits or licenses you may need. Check with the city or county government where your business is located to determine local requirements. Also, the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mississippisbdc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mississippi Small Business Development Center&#8217;s website<\/a>&nbsp;offers additional resources and information for businesses in the state.<\/p>\n<h3>Registration in Other States<\/h3>\n<p>To register your LLC in other states, you will likely need to apply to operate a foreign LLC in that jurisdiction. You can check with the appropriate governmental office in that state to confirm what&#8217;s required to register as a foreign LLC there.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"annual\"><\/a>Annual Filing Requirements in Mississippi<\/h2>\n<p>LLCs in Mississippi are required to file annual reports through the Secretary of State&#8217;s online Business Services.

It can be member-managed by the existing members of the company who retain decision-making powers over the business. Or members can set the LLC up to be manager-managed and hire one outside manager or team of managers who control the daily activities of the business.<\/li>\n<li><b>Professional LLC:<\/b> A professional LLC (PLLC) can be formed in Mississippi if the LLC will provide a service permitted only by licensed professionals. Examples can include certified public accountants, dentists, architects, veterinarians, physicians, and attorneys at law. Forming a PLLC gives licensed professionals the option to have a flexible business while still protecting their personal assets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                            <div\n                        class=\"fl-accordion-item\"\n                        id=\"section-5-faq\"\n                        aria-labelledby=\"button-5-faq\"\n                        data-testid=\"fl-accordion-item\"\n                >\n                    <h4\n                            class=\"fl-accordion-header fl-flex fl-items-center fl-justify-between fl-no-margin\"\n                            data-testid=\"fl-faq-question-header-5\"\n                    >\n                        <button\n                                id=\"button-5-faq\"\n                                aria-expanded=\"true\"\n                                aria-controls=\"content-5-faq\"\n                                class=\"fl-accordion-button fl-accordion-button-h4 fl-flex fl-flex-auto fl-justify-between is-opened fl-text-underline\"\n                                type=\"button\"\n                        >\n                            Do you need a certificate of formation in Mississippi?\n                            <span aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <i\n                                        class=\"fa fa-angle-down small\"\n                                        aria-hidden=\"true\"\n                                ><\/i>\n                            <\/span>\n                        <\/button>\n                    <\/h4>\n                    <div\n                            class=\"fl-accordion-content active\"\n                            data-testid=\"fl-faq-question-content-5\"\n                            id=\"content-5-faq\"\n                            role=\"region\"\n                            aria-labelledby=\"button-5-faq\"\n                    >\n                        <p>A certificate of formation is what you must file in Mississippi to create a valid LLC in the state.

An LLC is a separate legal entity, so owners aren&#8217;t generally personally responsible for the company&#8217;s debts and liabilities. If you operate your business as a sole proprietorship, on the other hand, you could potentially lose your personal assets in a lawsuit against your Mississippi business.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, LLCs offer flexibility. LLCs are a business entity that combine aspects of both corporations and partnership. But an LLC&#8217;s management structure is not as rigid as that of a corporation. The business can be managed by the owners\/members or business activities can be controlled by outside management. LLC owners also get to have flexibility regarding how the business is taxed. The LLC&#8217;s gains, losses, income, deductions, credits, and other tax items flow-through to the member or members who report them on their tax returns.<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                            <div\n                        class=\"fl-accordion-item\"\n                        id=\"section-9-faq\"\n                        aria-labelledby=\"button-9-faq\"\n                        data-testid=\"fl-accordion-item\"\n                >\n                    <h4\n                            class=\"fl-accordion-header fl-flex fl-items-center fl-justify-between fl-no-margin\"\n                            data-testid=\"fl-faq-question-header-9\"\n                    >\n                        <button\n                                id=\"button-9-faq\"\n                                aria-expanded=\"true\"\n                                aria-controls=\"content-9-faq\"\n                                class=\"fl-accordion-button fl-accordion-button-h4 fl-flex fl-flex-auto fl-justify-between is-opened fl-text-underline\"\n                                type=\"button\"\n                        >\n                            How do I maintain my Mississippi LLC?\n                            <span aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <i\n                                        class=\"fa fa-angle-down small\"\n                                        aria-hidden=\"true\"\n                                ><\/i>\n                            <\/span>\n                        <\/button>\n                    <\/h4>\n                    <div\n                            class=\"fl-accordion-content active\"\n                            data-testid=\"fl-faq-question-content-9\"\n                            id=\"content-9-faq\"\n                            role=\"region\"\n                            aria-labelledby=\"button-9-faq\"\n                    >\n                        <p>Once your LLC is legally registered with the Secretary of State, you need to comply with the state&#8217;s requirements to properly maintain your business.
