General Incorporation Information
- Any entity that transacts business in Florida as
a corporation is required by Florida Statutes to
file documents of incorporation or authorization
with the Division and pay the filing fee.
- The documents must be typewritten or printed legibly
in the English language. The professional advice
of your legal counsel to ascertain exact compliance
with all statutory requirements is strongly recommended.
- Each year after the initial filing, all corporations
must file a Uniform Business Report and pay the filing
fee between January 1 and May 1. Failure to file
a Uniform Business Report will result in administrative
dissolution of the corporation and loss of authorization
to transact business as a corporation in Florida.
- Supplies such as minute books, stationery, stock
certificates and corporate seals are available through
office supply stores. There are no laws requiring
corporations to obtain any of these. Some financial
institutions and title companies require a corporate
seal on documents signed by a corporation and are
within their rights to do so.
