Yes Where it's filed On the periodic/annual report — no dedicated interim filing Filing / update method Articles of Amendment (general amendment — no dedicated address-only form confirmed) Filing fee Not publicly confirmed for an address-only amendment (see note below) Processing time Not confirmed Expedited Not available Online filing Available Same filing as registered agent change? No — a separate matter ## Does Arkansas Even Track My LLC's Address? Arkansas's Annual LLC Franchise Tax Report has a dedicated Principal Office Information section, distinct from your registered agent's address. A general amendment filing can also update it between reports. ## Is This the Same As Changing My Registered Agent? Arkansas's $22 Statement of Change of Registered Agent only updates your registered agent — it does not touch your LLC's principal office address, which instead runs through the Annual Franchise Tax Report or a general amendment filing. - **Your LLC's principal/mailing address** is where your business is actually run from — it can change any time your business relocates, and it has nothing to do with who receives legal documents on the LLC's behalf. - **Your registered agent's address** is the location where the state and any process server can reach your registered agent — it changes only when you switch registered agents or your agent moves. If you're actually looking to switch registered agents in Arkansas, see [How to Change Your Registered Agent in Arkansas](/states/ar/change-registered-agent-arkansas) instead. ## How to Change Your LLC's Address in Arkansas 1 ### Confirm Where Your Address Actually Lives on the Public Record On the periodic/annual report — no dedicated interim filing with the Arkansas Secretary of State. Confirm your current filing status before you file anything new. 2 ### Complete Articles of Amendment (general amendment — no dedicated address-only form confirmed) Get the current form from the Arkansas Secretary of State and enter your LLC's name, file/entity number, and new address. This filing is separate from a registered-agent change — file it even if your agent isn't changing. 3 ### File and Pay the Fee Submit online or by mail with the Arkansas Secretary of State. The fee is Not publicly confirmed for an address-only amendment (see note below). Processing takes Not confirmed. 4 ### Follow the Update Timing Rule Arkansas's own guidance points to the Annual Franchise Tax Report's Principal Office Information section as the main way this address gets updated, with a general amendment available if you need it corrected sooner. No explicit "file within X days" deadline was found. 5 ### Update Everything Else Once the state's record (if any) reflects your new address, update your operating agreement, IRS records, bank accounts, licenses, contracts, and website. See the full checklist below. Arkansas's Secretary of State materials describe a general "amendment" as a fallback for correcting your principal address between annual reports, but do not name a specific address-only form, form number, or fee distinct from the standard Articles of Amendment. Confirm the current form and fee directly with the Arkansas Secretary of State before filing rather than relying on a specific figure here. ## What to Update After Changing Your LLC's Address - **Operating agreement** — update the address if it's listed in the document - **IRS / EIN** — file Form 8822-B to update your business address with the IRS; this is required within 60 days of the move regardless of what your state requires - **Business bank accounts** — most banks require written notice or an updated signature card - **Business licenses and permits** — some are tied to a specific location and may need to be reissued or transferred - **Contracts and agreements** — update your address in any active contracts, leases, and vendor agreements - **Mail forwarding** — set up USPS mail forwarding from your old address during the transition - **Website and marketing materials** — business listings, letterhead, invoices, and online directories **LLC Attorney clients:** Address changes are free within the first 90 days of formation.
