Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an LLC and a corporation?
An LLC offers flexible management and pass-through taxation by default. A corporation has a formal structure with a board of directors, officers, and shareholders. Corporations can issue stock and are often preferred for businesses seeking outside investment. Both provide personal liability protection.
Do I need bylaws for my corporation?
Yes. While states generally do not require you to file bylaws, every corporation should adopt bylaws at its initial organizational meeting. Bylaws govern internal operations — meetings, voting procedures, officer duties, and more. We recommend consulting an attorney to draft bylaws tailored to your business.
Is a registered agent required for a corporation?
Yes. Every state requires a corporation to maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in the state of incorporation. Your registered agent receives service of process, state correspondence, and compliance notices on your behalf. Eleet AI includes one year of registered agent service with every formation.
How long does it take to form a corporation?
Standard processing times vary by state: most states finalize in 3–10 business days, with expedited options available in nearly every state. Your current state's exact processing time displays at checkout.
What do I need to get started?
You need: (1) a corporate name that complies with your state's naming requirements, (2) a registered agent address in the state of incorporation (we provide this), (3) the names of initial directors, (4) the number and type of authorized shares, and (5) an incorporator to sign the filing. We walk you through each item during checkout.
Can I form a corporation in a state where I don't live?
Yes. You can incorporate in any state regardless of where you live or do business. However, if you do business in a state other than your state of incorporation, you will likely need to register as a foreign corporation in that state. Eleet AI currently offers corporation formation in 23 states — select yours at checkout.
