Filing Articles of Incorporation involves submitting the document to the appropriate government office, typically the Secretary of State or equivalent authority. The process usually requires a filing fee and adherence to state-specific formatting requirements.
The filing may be done online or via paper submission, depending on jurisdiction. After submission, the authority reviews the documents for compliance. Once approved, a certificate of incorporation is issued, officially recognizing the business as a legal entity.
Accurate filing is essential, as errors can delay approval or create legal complications. Organizations often consult legal experts or business service providers to ensure correct and complete submission.
