Does Florida Allow Series LLCs?
Florida does not currently have a Series LLC statute. You cannot form a Series LLC directly in Florida.
Business owners with a Florida base who want Series LLC-like liability separation typically consider two options: (1) forming a Series LLC in a state that authorizes them — most commonly Wyoming, Delaware, or Texas — and then registering as a foreign LLC in Florida; or (2) forming separate standard LLCs for each asset or venture in Florida, which achieves liability separation at a higher per-entity filing cost.
Note: Even if you form a Series LLC in another state, Floridacourts may not fully recognize the liability separation between series for activities conducted within Florida. Consult a Florida-licensed attorney before choosing this structure.
What Are the Alternatives in Florida?
- Multiple standard LLCs — the most legally certain approach in Florida; each asset or venture has its own filing, its own liability shield, and its own tax identity
- Holding company structure — form a parent LLC that owns subsidiary LLCs, keeping assets in separate entities while centralizing management
- Foreign Series LLC — form a Series LLC in Wyoming or Delaware, register it as a foreign LLC in Florida, and conduct business here — but note that Florida's recognition of the inter-series liability shield is untested

Florida Series LLC — FAQs
No. Florida does not currently have a Series LLC statute. You cannot form a Series LLC directly in Florida. Business owners who want Series LLC-like liability separation must either form a Series LLC in an authorizing state (such as Wyoming, Delaware, or Texas) or use separate standard LLCs for each asset.
A Series LLC is a master LLC with multiple legally separate "series," each holding its own assets and liabilities. In states that authorize them, debts and claims against one series cannot reach the assets of another. They are popular with real estate investors and multi-business owners.
Yes — you can form a Series LLC in Wyoming or Delaware and register it as a foreign LLC in Florida. However, Florida courts have not confirmed that they will respect the inter-series liability separation for activities conducted within Florida. This creates legal uncertainty that a standard multi-LLC structure avoids.
The most legally certain alternative in Florida is forming a separate standard LLC for each asset or venture. Another option is a holding company structure — a parent LLC that owns subsidiary LLCs — which achieves asset separation with cleaner legal clarity. LLC Attorney can help you choose and implement the right structure.
