What is the penalty for late or non-payment of U.S. company franchise tax / annual fees?

Late or non-payment of franchise tax / annual fees typically incurs a penalty (e.g. USD 200 in Delaware) plus interest accruing on the unpaid tax and penalty (e.g. 1.5% per month in Delaware). Exact amounts depend on the state of incorporation.

What is needed to restore a force-dissolved U.S. company after the owner neglected it?

Reinstating a force-dissolved U.S. company generally requires filing the missing annual reports, reappointing a registered agent (if it resigned), and paying outstanding state fees plus penalties, in addition to a service fee. Where the company has no special value, it is often cheaper and simpler to incorporate a brand-new company instead.

Does Virginia accept paper filings for company submissions, or is electronic filing required?

Virginia generally requires electronic filing (E-Filing) for the relevant company submissions; paper filing is typically not accepted. Confirm the specific filing type, as requirements can vary.

Can a U.S. company be forcibly (administratively) dissolved by the state authority?

Yes. A state's business/corporate authority (Secretary of State) can administratively or forcibly dissolve (revoke) a company, typically for non-compliance such as failing to file annual reports, pay state fees, or otherwise maintain good standing.

When signing company/compliance documents, should the client also fill in the date?

No. Clients should sign documents without filling in the date. Leaving the date blank avoids having to re-sign if an error is found and the documents must be corrected.
