According to FL Stat § 605.0102, the Department of State does not require Florida LLCs to have an Operating Agreement. However, an Operating Agreement is a critical internal document for LLCs because it dictates your company’s organizational structure & decision-making processes.
Think of an Operating Agreement as a constitution for your company—it outlines policies for today and for the future of your business operation. Plus, an expertly-drafted Operating Agreement can help you open a business bank account, obtain loans, and reinforce your limited liability.
