Question 7

What is a good standing certificate and when do I need one?

A good standing certificate (also called certificate of existence) proves your business is current with state requirements. You typically need it for bank loans, contracts, foreign qualification, or business sales. We can obtain certificates from any state within 1-3 business days.

Question 8

How do I qualify my business to operate in another state?

Foreign qualification allows your business to operate legally in states other than where it was formed. You'll need a certificate of good standing from your home state, appoint a registered agent in the new state, and file qualification documents. Costs vary by state ($50-$750).

Question 9

What's the difference between EIN and state tax ID numbers?

Accepted Answer

An EIN (Federal Tax ID) is required by the IRS for tax purposes and bank accounts. State tax ID numbers are separate and required if you have employees or sell products/services subject to state taxes. Some states use your EIN, others issue separate numbers.

We provide guidance on business license requirements, but licensing varies by industry and location. We can help identify what licenses you need and direct you to the appropriate agencies. Some licenses require industry-specific expertise or applications.

Missing multiple deadlines can result in administrative dissolution, accumulated penalties, loss of business name protection, and inability to conduct business legally. We offer reinstatement services to restore your business to good standing, though costs increase with time.
