The LLC, the EIN and the registered agent — filed with your state, so a bank, a supplier and a general contractor will all take you seriously. Most licence and bond applications want this done first. Starting at $0 + state fee.
Each business structure offers different benefits. Choose the one that matches your goals.
Limited Liability Company
Most popular for small businesses. Flexible management, pass-through taxation, and personal asset protection.
S Corporation
Tax advantages for profitable businesses. Avoid self-employment tax on distributions while maintaining liability protection.
C Corporation
Best for raising investment capital. Issue multiple classes of stock and attract venture capital funding.
Nonprofit Corporation
For charitable, educational, or religious organizations. Qualify for tax-exempt status and accept tax-deductible donations.
Sole Proprietorship
Simplest business structure with no formal entity filing. You are the business — full control, minimal paperwork, direct tax reporting on Schedule C.
Professional Limited Liability Company
LLC structure exclusively for licensed professionals. Provides personal asset protection while meeting state licensing board requirements.
Professional Corporation
A corporation for licensed professionals. The choice for doctors, lawyers and other licensed professionals in states without a PLLC, and an option in every state.
Limited Partnership
Partnership with general and limited partners. General partners manage the business; limited partners invest capital with liability protection.
Limited Liability Partnership
Partnership where all partners have limited personal liability. Popular with professional firms where partners want mutual protection from each other's malpractice.

Everything you need to know about forming your business with ServiceBoss.

Filed with your state
Articles of Organization or Incorporation prepared and submitted, checked against your state’s current requirements first.
Your EIN
The federal tax ID a bank will ask for before it opens a business account.
Registered agent
A real address to receive legal and state mail, so your home address stays off the public record.
The documents themselves
Stamped articles, operating agreement and filing receipts — the paperwork a supplier or a general contractor asks you to produce.
Filed with your state, with the EIN and registered agent handled. It takes less than 10 minutes.
