As a consulting LLC in Florida, your tax structure depends on your chosen classification. By default, a single-member LLC is treated as a disregarded entity, with profits and losses reported on your personal income tax return (Form 1040). Multi-member LLCs are taxed as partnerships. Alternatively, you can elect to have your LLC taxed as an S-Corp or C-Corp. This connects to our resource on setting up your Florida LLC, which covers the details. S-Corp election can potentially reduce self-employment taxes. Florida has no state personal income tax, but does have a corporate income tax.
