Mini-FAQ
• Do I need to live in Florida to form a Florida LLC?
No. You can form and manage it from anywhere if you keep a Florida registered agent and meet state rules.

• Can I use a virtual mailbox as my business address?
Often for mailing, yes. Your registered agent address must meet state requirements, and banks or licensing boards may have their own address rules.

• When is the annual report due?
Due once a year. File on Sunbiz before the deadline to avoid penalties.

• Do I need an Operating Agreement if I’m the only owner?
Yes. Banks often ask for it, and it clarifies ownership and management.
