Important Reporting Deadlines for

Pennsylvania Businesses and Oil & Gas Operators

Pennsylvania businesses and oil and gas operators should be aware of key annual reporting requirements to remain compliant with state regulations.

Beginning in 2025, Pennsylvania requires nearly all registered business entities to file an Annual Report with the Department of State's Bureau of Corporations and Charitable Organizations. This new requirement replaces the previous 10-year reporting cycle and applies to all entities registered to do business in Pennsylvania, regardless of where they were formed. Filing deadlines vary by entity type: June 30 for corporations, September 30 for LLCs, and December 31 for partnerships, business trusts, and professional associations. Most filings carry a $7 fee, while nonprofit entities file at no cost. Failure to file may result in penalties, including administrative dissolution and loss of exclusive rights to a business name.

In addition, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) requires annual oil and gas reporting through its GreenPort system. Reports covering the previous calendar year must be submitted electronically by February 15. Conventional well operators must file one annual Mechanical Integrity Assessment (MIA) report, while unconventional well operators must submit four quarterly inspection reports annually. These requirements apply to all operating wells and non-plugged abandoned wells.

Members are encouraged to review their reporting obligations and ensure all required filings are submitted by the applicable deadlines to avoid penalties and maintain compliance.
