Virginia CPA Firm Renewal — What the Firm Itself Must File

Virginia firm registration/permit — not individual license renewal

A CPA firm's own registration or permit to practice renews separately from any individual staff CPA's license — and it's usually the filing that falls through the cracks, because it belongs to whoever handles firm admin, not to a specific licensee tracking their own renewal. Here's exactly when Virginia's firm-level filing is due.

CPA Firm License
June 30, 2027

Annual renewal, same fixed June 30 calendar date as individual licenses. Unrenewed firm licenses automatically go to Expired status -- Va. Code § 54.1-4413.2(B): "Any license not renewed pursuant to the provisions prescribed by the Board shall be considered to have expired and the person or firm shall be considered to no longer hold a Virginia license." (18VAC5-22-180 doesn't itself state this; the prior citation covered only the June 30 renewal date, not the expiration consequence -- added the controlling statute.) After expiration the firm may not provide attest or compilation services until reinstated under § 54.1-4413.2(E), plus the Board's own $500 reinstatement fee (per the Board's own renewal page).

Always confirm with the official state board before relying on this date. License requirements and deadlines can change.

Tracking this for more than one firm, or want someone else watching it?

Any individual CPA at your firm can already get free renewal reminders for their own license. What Deadline-Radar's firm tier adds is the view your admin doesn't get from 20 separate free sign-ups: one place to see the whole roster's status — including this firm-level filing — not 20 inboxes to hope someone's watching.
