Company Formation

The state and entity type affect governance, fees, annual reports, and federal returns. We review the operating location, owners, business activity, and banking or marketplace purpose before preparing the filing. Legal opinions, licensing, and regulated activities may require separate counsel.

Compare the relevant entity and state, then document scope, government fees, and open questions.
Prepare the state filing and organize the approved formation record.

Open a state guide for its filing office, formation considerations, ongoing compliance, and official state tax source. Sales tax obligations still require a separate review of locations, employees, inventory, channels, and sales data.
PUBLIC RATE CARD
ABS’s public fee table separates service charges from government costs. Formation support is $99 plus state fees, registered-agent support is $125 per year, and annual-report handling is $100 plus state fees. Tax filing, bookkeeping, expedited state service, and optional work are outside the formation price unless the signed scope says otherwise.

The ABS public rate card lists company formation support at $99 plus state fees. Registered-agent support is $125 per year and annual-report handling is $100 plus state fees. State government fees are separate and confirmed before filing.
State fees alone are not enough. Operating locations, employees, inventory, investors, and banking or marketplace requirements may matter. An entity formed elsewhere may still need foreign qualification where it operates.
No. State-law entity type and federal tax classification are separate questions. The answer depends on ownership, income, payroll, distributions, and elections.
Many entities need one for tax, payroll, banking, or platform purposes, but the requirement depends on the entity and activity. IRS rules also determine when a changed entity needs a new EIN.
ABS INTAKE
Start with the state, entity type, tax year, sales channels, deadline, and bookkeeping status. Do not email tax IDs, identity documents, bank details, or full tax returns through ordinary email.
