Almost ALL jurisdictions require that the corporation designate a registered agent for service of process. MyCorporation can select a registered agent service for you if you are in need of such services. Once filed, the corporation comes into existence. The level of complexity for a corporation's Articles of Incorporation can range from very simple to extremely complex. Generally, most jurisdictions require Articles of incorporation to contain, at a minimum, information about the Corporate Name, the Registered Agent, and the Corporation's business address.
Requirements vary by state.
Bylaws serve as the internal operating document for the corporation. Generally, Bylaws detail the responsibilities, rights, and duties of directors, shareholders and officers. Currently states generally do not require that Bylaws be filed. Our forms allow you to name up to 6 officers for your corporation. While most jurisdictions allow the same person to act in all capacities, that person has different responsibilities depending on the capacity in which he or she is acting.
