This service includes an apostille for international banking and registration requirements. Generally, foreign banks and governments require that public documents originating from another country be accompanied by an apostille. An apostille is a special certificate that authenticates a document for use in another country pursuant to the treaty called "Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents." An apostille may be used in any country that is a party to the Hague Convention treaty. Most developed countries are a party to the Hague Convention treaty. With our Apostille Service, we include an apostille together with the articles/certificate of incorporation for use in your desired country.

State law requires every company to have a registered agent located in the state of incorporation and in all states where the company is qualified to transact business. The role of the registered agent is to receive legal papers (called service of process) and government notices on behalf of the company. As part of registered agent service, you will receive upon request free updates regarding the status of the company and information about the procedure to amend the company. Registered agent service is FREE in the first year for orders placed online. This special offer applies to business owners who order the formation of one entity registered in one state. After the first year, there is a $314 annual fee for registered agent service. Payments are not refundable due to dissolution, sale, merger or the filing of a change of agent. Registered agent service is provided by Corporate Creations Network Inc.

NOTE: Skip this option to avoid a possible delay in your corporate filing. Skip this option if you are not a qualified agent under state law.

In many states, the registered agent must sign a document acknowledging acceptance of their appointment as registered agent. In those states, selecting this option may delay your corporate filing. To avoid that possible delay, do not select this option. If you decide to select this option, you acknowledge that you are familiar with and agree to assume the legal obligations of the registered agent under state law. To be named as registered agent under this option, you must be a qualified agent under state law. In most states, a qualified agent must be a state resident or qualified entity available all year during certain business hours to receive service of process at a permanent street address. The permanent street address is called a registered office in most states and that office must be located in the state in which the company will be incorporated.

This service is intended for the filing of non-tax return annual report filings as required by each state's Secretary of State or other corporate filing office. It does not include the filing of tax returns or other license renewals that may be required to maintain the active status of the entity.

In some states, at least two persons must be members (owners) of an LLC.

All LLCs automatically qualify for partnership or pass-through tax status under federal tax law, which allows profits and losses to be reported on the individual tax returns of each member, unless the members inform the IRS they prefer tax treatment of the LLC as a separate corporate entity (called "association" under the Internal Revenue Code). In states where one person LLCs are permitted, one person LLCs also qualify for pass-through tax status under federal tax law.
