Foreign Registration vs Domestic Formation

How do foreign and domestic entities apply to do business in CT?

A foreign entity is a business formed under the laws of another state or a foreign country. If your business was created outside Connecticut, you must register the entity in Connecticut to do business here.

A domestic entity is a business formed under the laws of Connecticut. If your business was created or formed under the laws of Connecticut, file a formation with the Office of the Secretary of the State.
