Massachusetts Business Calculators
These Massachusetts business calculators use fees from the Massachusetts General Laws and the Corporations Division Filing Fees page, checked November 11, 2026, and our checkout prices. Estimate what an LLC or corporation costs in year one (including the share-based corporation fee), find your annual report fee and due date, or price a reinstatement for a dissolved company.
How these calculators get their numbers
Every state amount comes from the Corporations Division Filing Fees page and the Massachusetts General Laws (chapters 156C, 156D and 180), checked November 11, 2026. Our service fees are the same ones shown on the pricing page. If the Division changes a fee, we update the page and the calculators together.

Which calculator to use
Use the first-year cost calculator if you have not formed yet: it adds our package, the $500 LLC fee or the corporation fee for your share count, the optional $199 agent and the optional $79 kit, and shows year two. Use the annual report calculator if the company exists and you need the date and fee. Use the reinstatement calculator if the company has been administratively dissolved.

What the numbers leave out
The calculators cover Corporations Division fees and our service fees. They leave out city and town business certificate fees, the corporate excise ($456 minimum), sales tax at 6.25 percent, federal taxes, and the Division's electronic processing charge, which we show separately at checkout.

Three quick examples
An LLC on the Starter package with no agent costs $649 in year one and $500 to the state every year after, or $649 with our annual report service. A corporation with 275,000 authorized shares on Starter costs $424 in year one and $100 a year online to the state after that, plus the $456 minimum corporate excise. A company dissolved after two missed LLC reports owes $1,100 to the state to come back.

The Division's processing charge
Online filings carry an electronic processing charge set by the Division: $10 on fees from $85 to $149.99, $15 from $150 to $499, $20 at $500, and 4.5 percent above $500. We show it as its own line at checkout so the state fee stays at cost.
