What Alaska asks of a business
Alaska has no personal income tax, corporate income tax from 0% to 9.4% and no state sales tax. An LLC in the state faces a biennial report of $100, due Biennial, January 2. The table below is what we check first on every Alaska engagement.
| Alaska at a glance | What applies | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Personal income tax | No personal income tax | No personal income tax |
| Corporate income tax | Corporate income tax from 0% to 9.4% | Graduated corporate brackets (2026 table) |
| Sales tax | No state sales tax | No state sales tax; Alaska allows local sales taxes only |
| LLC fees | Formation $250; A biennial report of $100, due Biennial, January 2 | $100 |
| Corporation fees | Annual report | Corporations file an annual report with the state; fee and date confirmed at engagement |
| S-corp election | Federal election recognised | No personal income tax; S-corps generally pass through, corporate tax applies to C-corps only |

Things Alaska owners get wrong
No personal income tax does not mean no state filing. Alaska still expects a biennial report of $100, due Biennial, January 2, and corporate income tax from 0% to 9.4% applies at entity level where relevant. No personal income tax; S-corps generally pass through, corporate tax applies to C-corps only.
Nobody sets out to miss these. They are missed because a seasonal preparer handles the federal return in April and nobody owns the state calendar for the rest of the year. We keep the calendar.

Pricing in Alaska
Business returns from $99, quoted by entity and complexity before any work starts. Alaska state or entity filings are quoted with the federal return, so there is one number, not a list of add-ons. Late years are priced per year. Catch-up bookkeeping, where needed, is a fixed project quoted after a free review.
We do not write "guaranteed", "maximum refund" or "IRS-approved" anywhere, because no honest preparer can. We prepare returns correctly and keep the confirmations.
Alaska questions people ask first
Do I need to file a Alaska state return for my LLC?
Alaska has no personal income tax, so a pass-through owner does not file a state income tax return on business profit. The entity may still owe a biennial report of $100, due Biennial, January 2 and any franchise or gross-receipts tax, which we handle.
When is my Alaska business return due?
Federal 1120-S and 1065 returns are due March 16, 2026 (September 15 on extension); 1120 and Schedule C returns April 15 (October 15 on extension). Alaska entity filings run on their own calendar: a biennial report of $100, due Biennial, January 2. We track both.
I own a Alaska LLC but live outside the US. What do I file?
A foreign-owned single-member LLC files Form 5472 attached to a pro forma Form 1120, which cannot be e-filed and carries a $25,000 penalty if missed. We prepare it, fax-file it and keep the transmission report. Multi-member LLCs file Form 1065 with K-1s.
Does Alaska recognise my federal S-corp election?
Yes. No personal income tax; S-corps generally pass through, corporate tax applies to C-corps only
What if I am behind by a year or more?
We prepare each open year, rebuild the books if needed, and include a written reasonable-cause request for penalty relief where one applies. Penalty relief is the IRS's decision; we prepare the request and do not promise the outcome.
Who prepares and signs my return?
A team of Certified Accountants, CPAs and Enrolled Agents working from New York and Mumbai. A US-credentialed preparer reviews and signs. Replies within 8 hours, one point of contact.
