Requirements to Register California LLC


Registering a California LLC is not as difficult as it may seem. There are a number of requirements that you must follow to form your LLC in California. The primary requirement is to file your Articles of Organization with the California Secretary of State. Once filed, the approval process will take a few weeks, but the hard part is done.
The Articles of Organization must contain the following:
1.) The name of the limited liability company.
2.) The following statement:
The purpose of the limited liability company is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a limited liability company may be organized under the Beverly-Killea Limited Liability Company Act.
3.) The name and address of the initial agent for service of process.
4.) State whether the company will be managed by members or managers.
5.) The articles need to be signed by the Organizer.
You can include additional articles, but they are not required by the state office. It will depend on your business model, and your specific situation. If you are unclear about the best solution for you please consult a lawyer in California.
Additional Articles
a.) You can include additional language to limit the liability of the members.
b.) You can include an article regarding the events under which a dissolution may occur.
c.) There can be articles included to limit the powers of certain members or managers.
While it can be complex, registering a corporation in California can be both fun and easy. Take your time to make sure that you have followed the appropriate requirements and you can save time and money also.
