ABS · NY Guide
Before forming or operating a company in New York, review entity type, registered-agent records, annual reports, state tax, federal tax, and e-commerce bookkeeping requirements.
01
Confirm entity type, owners, management, name, business activity, registered agent, and any in-state address requirements. An LLC and a corporation have different governance, tax elections, and recurring filings; first-year price alone is not a sound basis for choosing.
An LLC generally must publish for six weeks in county-designated newspapers within 120 days and file proof; cost varies by county.
02
The biennial statement fee is generally $9. Confirm on the state website before filing. The biennial statement is generally due by the end of the formation month.
03
Cross-border sellers should test economic nexus using sales, transactions, inventory, and marketplace collection records. Check state and local rates and taxable categories by delivery destination.
04
State formation does not replace federal tax filing. A U.S. entity with foreign ownership may involve an EIN, Form 1120, Form 5472, Form 1065, withholding, or information returns. The applicable filing depends on tax classification, ownership, transactions, and operating facts.
05
ABS can organize state formation records, coordinate registered-agent service, build annual-report and state-tax calendars, and support e-commerce bookkeeping, income tax, sales tax, payroll tax, and IRS or state notice intake. Scope and pricing are confirmed in writing after the facts are reviewed.
No fixed government-fee, filing-time, or tax-case outcome is promised. State rules, documents, and deadlines are reviewed first.
