Name and Address of Your Registered Agent

Company Name

The most typical cause for rejection during the LLC application procedure is that the company name is legally improper.

Registered Representative

A registered agent receives and transmits legal paperwork on behalf of your LLC. A registered agent is also known as a statutory agent, resident agent, or agent for service of process in various jurisdictions.

When forming a limited liability corporation, most states require you to choose a registered agent (LLC).

Make a Business Agreement

An LLC operating agreement is a legal document that defines your LLC’s ownership structure and member duties.

Although most states do not need an operating agreement in order to incorporate an LLC, having one is still a good idea.

Get An Ein

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is your LLC’s equivalent of a social security number. If you want to recruit staff or create company bank accounts, you’ll need an EIN.

You may get your EIN for free by using the IRS website, fax, or mail. Read our What is an EIN article to discover more about EINs and how they might benefit your LLC.

Establish a Business Bank Account

It is critical to use specific business banking and credit accounts to safeguard your company’s corporate veil. When you combine your personal and company accounts, your personal assets (house, vehicle, and other possessions) are at danger if your LLC is sued.
Purchase Licenses and Permits

When forming an LLC, you should consider if your company requires any licences or permissions to operate legally. On the federal level, a few corporate operations need licences and/or permissions.

State and municipal licencing requirements differ according on your state of formation, as well as county and city rules.

Your Company’s Brand

A great brand is the foundation of the most successful and memorable enterprises. Consider what your company stands for while building your brand. Customers and customers search for firms with a compelling brand just as much as they look for high-quality goods and services.
