Flat 4.99% state income tax
Georgia taxes income at a single flat rate rather than brackets, which makes projecting owner-level tax on pass-through business income more straightforward than in bracket-based states.
4% state sales tax, plus county and city rates
County and city local option taxes stack on top of the 4% state rate, and the right combined rate depends on exactly where a sale is sourced — a common source of small errors for businesses tracking it manually.
Annual Registration, separate from tax filing
Every Georgia LLC owes a $60 Annual Registration ($50 filing fee plus a $10 service charge) to the Secretary of State each year, regardless of income or tax filings — a routine deadline that's easy to lose track of without a dedicated schedule.
Frequently asked questions
What's Georgia's state income tax rate for a small business?
Georgia uses a flat state income tax rate of 4.99% for 2026, applied to all taxable income — a single rate rather than income brackets, which simplifies projecting owner-level tax on pass-through business income.
What's the sales tax rate for a Georgia business?
The Georgia state sales tax rate is 4%, with counties and cities adding local option taxes on top, so the combined rate depends on the county (and, in Atlanta, the city) where the customer takes delivery.
Does a Georgia LLC need to file anything every year?
Yes. Georgia LLCs must file an Annual Registration with the Secretary of State each year, along with a $60 fee ($50 filing fee plus a $10 service charge), to stay in good standing — this is separate from any income or sales tax filings and is easy to miss if it isn't on a tracked schedule.
How is an LLC formed in Georgia?
A Georgia LLC is formed by filing Articles of Organization with the Georgia Secretary of State's Corporations Division. After formation, an EIN, registered agent, and the first Annual Registration all need to be set up correctly to avoid falling out of good standing in year one.
