What is an LLC?

A limited liability company also known as an LLC is a business structure where the entity is separate from the owners, it could have only one member and be a single-member LLC or have multiple members in which case it would be a multi-member LLC.

AN LLC combines the pass-through taxation of a partnership or sole proprietorship with the limited liability of a corporation. Since the business is considered its own legal entity with a separate legal existence, the members of the company can’t be held liable for any obligations or debts the company fails to fulfill.

To form an LLC, each state requires specific documents to be filed with the authorities, these documents could be articles of organization, members certificate, certificate of formation…

What is an EIN?

The Employer Identification Number, also known as the Federal Tax Identification Number, is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service to business entities operating in the United States for the purposes of identification.
As a business owner, you'll need an EIN to apply for business bank accounts, payment gateways, business licenses and file your tax returns.

Registered Agent

What is a registered agent?

A registered agent, also known as statutory agent, is a responsible third-party designated to receive service of process notices (SOP) when a business entity is a party in a legal action such as a lawsuit or summons. The registered agent’s address may also be where the state sends documents to your corporation or LLC.

What does a registered agent do?

In layman's terms, a registered agent is the person to whom the state government sends documents to contact you. It is the registered agent’s job to make sure you don’t miss important mail for your company address which is lawsuits or judgments involving your business. Registered agents will generally forward these documents and notices to the entity itself and also notify business entities whether their state government filing status is in “good standing” or not when it’s asked for.

Why Do I Need a Registered Agent?

If you do not have a physical location in the state in which your business is registered, in most states, you’re required to choose a registered agent to be able to accept documents on your behalf from the state. States require a contact person of your business during business hours, this person is the registered agent and for people with no physical location in the state of their company, having a registered agent for your company is an absolute necessity to operate their business legally.

How many free mail scans do I get?

You get 5 free document scans with each order of the registered agent service, for each additional scan the fee is 19$
