Step by step guide to Florida Corporation amendments

How to file a Florida Corporation Amendment:

To make amendments to your Florida Corporation, you must provide the completed Cover Letter and Articles of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation forms with the filing fee to the Department of State by mail or in person.

Can you re-state the initial articles instead of filing an amendment?

Yes. If you wish to re-state the initial articles you must draft your own. They do not provide a form for this type of filing. You should use the amendment cover letter form as your cover page for any restated articles filing.

Are there any specifics you can or can’t include with a Florida Corporation amendment?

You can make changes to the original articles, company name, street and mailing address, registered agent information, as well as the name and address of the officers and/or directors directly on the form.

How much does a Florida Corporation amendment cost?

Florida corporate amendments cost $35.

How long does it take the state to process a Florida Corporation amendment?

Normal processing time is approximately one week. You can request same-day service while you wait when delivered in person.

How will the corporation amendment be returned?

A letter of acknowledgment will be issued after the amendment has been filed. You will also be able to print a copy directly from their website.
