How to reinstate

  1. Look up the LLC on Sunbiz and confirm it shows as administratively dissolved.
  2. Start the reinstatement online on Sunbiz. The form shows the current record so you can correct it.
  3. Pay the reinstatement fee and every annual report fee due. Sunbiz shows the exact total before you pay.

Once reinstated, the LLC is treated as if it had never been dissolved. Until then it cannot get a certificate of status, which banks and payment processors often ask for.
