When do we register our business?
We know starting a business takes a lot of effort, and we’re here to help as much as possible. These are some of the first things to do:
- Choose a legal structure
- Choose a business name no one else is using
- Register your business with the State
Please note: Obtaining a certificate of Legal Existence is not a required part of the business formation (startup) process. Read here about Legal Existence scams to avoid as a new business owner.
