5. Annual reports and fees
If the entity began doing business in Kansas more than six months prior to its fiscal year end (question
7), it may owe annual reports and fees with the application. If more than two annual reports are due, or if

the application, a penalty fee* of $85 applies to the application fee. All application fees, penalty fees and
annual report fees may be paid with one check.

corporations and for profit entities.
