State fees
Forming an LLC in New Mexico
New Mexico charges $50 to form an LLC and no yearly state fee (no annual report for an LLC), for a company with no revenue in the state.
No annual report or fee for an LLC. Its fee schedule sits inside an online form that automated readers cannot open, so fewer of its figures are published where we could see them.
