Depending on the state where the company is registered and its structure, the state provides the following documents:
- Articles of Incorporation, Articles of Organization, Certificate of Formation, or Certificate of Organization.
These documents serve as proof of your company's registration with the state and typically include the business name, registration date, registered agent, and the purpose/activity of the business. In some states, administrators are also listed. This document is issued promptly upon the company's registration with the state.
- For an LLC, an Operating Agreement or Members Certificate is provided, while a Corporation receives Bylaws, Minutes of Organizational Meeting, or Shares Certificates.
These internal documents outline the company's internal agreements and the distribution of participation among its members. It acts as a comprehensive "manual" containing all essential information about the company. Surprisingly, the ownership of the company is not registered with the state, and this document is only issued once the company's registration process is completed, as it requires the inclusion of the EIN.
- The EIN Letter (CP565) or EIN Verification Letter (147C) is a document issued by the IRS, providing your registration number (EIN). This serves as the tax ID of the company and is essential for opening the company's bank account.
Upon completion of the process, all documents are sent by email under the name "Constitution Documents" by our team. If the process is still ongoing, we will send the documents via email once both entities confirm the opening of the company.
