An Act relative to corporate filing requirements

HD 1158 prohibits state agencies from charging extra fees based on how corporations pay for annual report filings. It directly affects corporations required to submit annual reports to Massachusetts state agencies. The bill amends three sections of state law to add consistent language stating that no additional surcharge may be applied for using approved payment methods like credit cards, electronic payments, or checks. This change eliminates existing fees for certain payment types while maintaining the base filing fee of $450 for annual reports.
