Businesses primarily incorporate to safeguard their owners from the liabilities of the business. Both corporations and limited liability companies (LLCs) establish a legal separation between the owners/investors and the liabilities of the company. Additionally, incorporating as either a corporation or an LLC can offer various advantages, including potential tax benefits, enhanced prestige, and name protection. Furthermore, incorporation may facilitate the setup of health insurance, retirement plans, and other benefits for both owners and employees.
A corporation is an independent legal entity distinct from its owners. The formation of a corporation takes place when appropriately filled out articles of incorporation (referred to as a charter or certificate of incorporation in certain states) are submitted to the relevant state.authority, along with payment of all associated fees.
Virtually all states mandate that a company designate an agent within the state to receive service of process and official correspondence such as annual reports, tax notices, and compliance-related matters. If the company lacks its own address within the state. it can employ a professional registered agent to meet this obligation. Neglecting to maintain a registered agent typically results in the loss of the company's legal authorization to conduct business within the state.
When establishing a corporation, many states mandate that the corporation specifies the number of shares it intends to make available for sale to potential shareholders. Shares that have been sold are termed "issued" shares, while those that remain available.are referred to as "unissued" shares. If the corporation intends to issue more shares than initially authorized, it must submit an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized share count.
