Tax Structure Overview

As a white label LLC in California, your tax structure depends on your elections. By default, a single-member LLC is treated as a disregarded entity, and a multi-member LLC as a partnership, with profits passing through to the owners' personal income. You can elect to be taxed as an S-Corp or C-Corp for potential tax advantages. California also imposes an $800 annual franchise tax on LLCs, regardless of activity.
