There is no Maryland state law requiring an LLC to have an operating agreement. However, if you dont have one, your LLC will be governed by Marylands default LLC statutes, and you may run into difficulty if you need to prove your ownership of the LLC or if you face a lawsuit.
Every LLC that is registered in the states of California, Delaware, Maine, Missouri, and New York is legally required to have an operating agreement.
Maryland law doesnt require LLCs to file an Operating Agreement with the state, making it optional rather than mandatory. However, this internal document provides crucial legal protections and operational clarity that smart business owners never skip.
For example, all legal entities are required to have a Department Identification Number from the Maryland Department of Assessments Taxation. However, many businesses also need a Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) from the IRS, and a Central Registration Number from Marylands Office of the Comptroller.
