Registrations & Filings Business Search Business Entity Search Notice Due to unforeseen delays to the distribution of some forfeiture notices, and to better assist the citizens of Maryland, the Department of Assessments and Taxation will be extending by 7 days the 2021 forfeiture deadlines. Letters have been mailed to any business facing forfeiture, and businesses can verify their In Good Standing status by using Business Entity Search. If your business is In Good Standing, it is not facing forfeiture. If you have received a letter identifying November 15, 2021 as the deadline to file, you now have until November 23, 2021. If you received a letter identifying December 15, 2021 as the deadline to file, you now have until December 22, 2021. Please be aware of an ongoing scam in which newly registered businesses are being instructed to send additional payment in order to obtain a Certificate of Status. Any 3rd party solicitation from a company attempting to represent the ‘Maryland Secretary of State’ via mail or email should be fully vetted before submitting additional payment information.
