• Filling Fees
  • The fee to file both the application and affidavit is based on the anticipated amount of capital contributions of the limited partners that is allocated for the purpose of transacting business in Florida, at a rate of $7 per $1000, with a fee no less than $52.50 and no more than $1750. An additional $35 is due for the designation of a registered agent. A certified copy or a certificate under seal may be requested at the time of registration. An additional $52.50 is due for each certified copy requested and an additional $8.75 is due for each certificate under seal requested. Please send one check for the total amount due made payable to the Department of State.
  • IMPORTANT: Because Chapter 620, Florida Statutes, requires a foreign limited partnership to file a supplemental affidavit any time the actual amount of capital contributions allocated for the purpose of transacting business in Florida exceeds the anticipated amount of capital contributions listed in number 2 on the attached affidavit and to pay an additional fee based on the increase at a rate of $7 per $1,000, with a minimum filing fee of $52.50 and a maximum filing fee of $1750, it is imperative that the limited partnership review the affidavit for accuracy before submitting it to the Florida Department of State for processing.
