Here’s a breakdown of the likely taxes and fees you’ll incur when you start and run an LLC in Nebraska.
When you first form your LLC in Nebraska you will need to pay a fee to file your Certificate of Organization. You can find the current fees and turnaround times here. You will also need to pay to publish information about your LLC in a newspaper for three weeks, and to file an affidavit of publication.
You will need to pay licensing and permit fees on a regular basis depending on the type of business you are operating and where you are located. These vary from city to city and industry to industry. If you don’t want to do the legwork yourself, we provide a complete Business License Research Package that will tell you all of the licenses and permits required for your new LLC. It includes:
Remember that operating your business without the required licenses can expose you to risks and fines from state and local governments.
You will need to pay state tax on any business profits that you generate and pay to yourself. These profits flow through to your personal state tax return.
If you’re selling products or services in Nebraska, you may need to pay a state sales tax.
You may need to pay other taxes and fees, depending on the type of business you run. Learn about other Nebraska taxes.
Because your Nebraska LLC income flows through to your personal tax return, you must pay self-employment tax (also known as FICA, Social Security or Medicare tax) on your earnings. This is typically at a rate of 15.3 percent. You will be able to deduct your business expenses from your income when working out how much self-employment tax you owe. Note that if you are an LLC electing to be treated as an S Corp, you can reduce your self-employment tax.
You will also need to pay regular federal income tax when you file your tax return every year. You can find details of federal tax brackets online. Note that you will be able to apply your standard deduction, personal exemption and business expenses to this tax.
If you employ others, you will need to pay insurance and taxes to the state for each employee. Here’s how to register for the various employee taxes, insurance and other costs.
