California Form 3533 B, officially titled "Change of Address for Businesses, Exempt Organizations, Estates and Trusts," is used to notify the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) of a change to your entity's mailing address or principal business location address. Filing this form promptly ensures that FTB correspondence, tax notices, refund checks, and compliance letters all reach the correct address, helping your organization avoid missed deadlines or penalties from delayed communications.
Any business, LLC, exempt organization, estate, or trust that files California income tax returns on Forms 100, 100S, 100W, 109, 199, 541, 565, or 568 must use Form 3533 B whenever its address changes. Individual taxpayers who need to update a personal mailing address with the FTB should use the separate California Form 3533 (Change of Address for Individuals) instead. A general California address change form is also available for other official purposes outside of FTB filing obligations.
To complete Form 3533 B, gather the following details before you begin: your California corporation number or Secretary of State file number, your Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN), and the complete former and new mailing or business location addresses. Entities with an international mailing address must also supply the foreign country name, the foreign province or state or county, and the foreign postal code. A current owner, officer, or authorized representative must sign and date the form before it is submitted.
After completing Form 3533 B, mail it directly to the California Franchise Tax Board, P.O. Box 942840, Sacramento, CA 94240-0002. Do not attach the form to a tax return or include it with any other correspondence. There is no filing fee. Submit the form as soon as the address change takes effect so that your FTB records are updated without interruption. Keeping accurate, up-to-date address information with the Franchise Tax Board is an important part of ongoing tax compliance for any California-registered business entity.
