If you really need your original approved Articles of Incorporation in your hands quickly, the Express Mail option can cut the delivery time in half. The Express Mail option has no effect on the Arizona Corporation Commission's processing time. For the quickest turn-around time also choose the Expedited Service option.

S Corporations are taxed differently than C Corporations.  With an S Corporation, business profits may be "passed through" directly to the shareholders.  This avoids the double tax on both corporate and shareholder profits.  S Corporations do not pay any Arizona Corporate Income Tax.

We can prepare the S Corporation Election form for you and include it with your Incorporation documents.

Every Arizona Corporation is required to have an address within the state of Arizona where official and legal correspondence can be delivered.  The individual or company that is registered with the state of Arizona to receive all correspondence on behalf of the Corporation is called a Registered Agent.

You may act as your own Registered Agent, however, many Corporations hire a Registered Agent because they don't have a physical address within Arizona or to provide a distinct level of privacy. 

We can act as your Arizona Corporation Registered Agent.  This is an annual service.  We will forward all correspondence to you and will remind you when it is time to renew your AZ Registered Agent services.

Bylaws are the rules by which your Arizona Corporation must operate.  Every new Arizona Corporation requires bylaws.  Almost anything may be written into the bylaws, however, the bylaws must not be in violation of any law or your Arizona Corporation's Articles of Incorporation.

We can create customized initial bylaws for your Arizona Corporation that are based on your specific business requirements. As your company grows over time, you may amend your bylaws as necessary.

An Arizona Good Standing Certficate is proof of the existence of your new Arizona Corporation. The Certificate is issued by the Arizona Corporation Commission and is proof that your AZ Corporation is not behind on any of its Arizona Corporation Commission Corporate obligations.

An Arizona Good Standing Certificate is often required for loans, to apply for business licenses, or for tax or other business purposes in the state of Arizona or in any other state.

We can get your Arizona Good Standing Certificate immediately after the Arizona Corporation Commission has approved your Articles of Incorporation.

An FEIN is like a Social Security Number for your Arizona Corporation.  We can get your FEIN on the same day that your Articles of Incorporation are approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission.

You can get your FEIN before your articles are approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission but it's a good idea to wait until after approval.  Your filing may be rejected or the Corporation name that you want may not be approved.  Changing information on an FEIN filing is not a trivial exercise with the IRS.

While you're not required to have a Corporation Kit and Seal for your new Arizona Corporation they do come in handy.  The AZ Corporation Kit consists of a beautiful customized binder, stock certificates, a stock ledger and your custom Corporation Seal.

The Corporation Seal is used to emboss important company documents, such as stock certificates.  The binder also includes dividers so you can use it for all of your Arizona Corporation record keeping.

Most new Arizona Corporations are required to get some kind of state, regional or local permits or business licenses.  The task to figure out exactly what you need can be daunting.

We can determine exactly which forms you need to fill out, fill them out for you and file the forms with the appropriate government agency where possible.
