Kansas LLC Registration

LLC in Kansas

How to form an LLC in Kansas:

You form Kansas LLCs by filing articles of organization with the KS SOS.

What is required to file Kansas LLC Articles of organization?

To form a Kansas LLC, you file Kansas LLC articles of organization. The Kansas articles of organization cost $165 to the Kansas Secretary of State. These LLC articles can be basic or complicated. We custom draft your Kansas LLC articles of organization when you hire Northwest to do your Kansas LLC registration, but if you'd like to save some money, you could just hire us as your KS registered agent, and then we supply you all the correct forms to file and filing instructions in your online account immediately. The Kansas articles of organization requirements are:

• The business name must have a limited liability company ending or variation of it
• New Kansas LLCs name must be different than already registered Kansas companies
• The mailing address for official mail from the Secretary of State
• The LLCs tax closing month
• The LLCs duration may be perpetual or limited
• The LLC formation can be effective when filed or at a later date
• The Kansas registered agent and the physical address
• The Kansas LLC organizer’s name and signature

Kansas does not require original signatures on filings. The filed document is returned to the mailing address you specify in the articles of organization. If you form a Kansas LLC online, you can print a copy of your filed articles right from the website.

What's the actual process to start a Kansas LLC?

1. Kansas LLC registration is started when you file the articles of organization for a Kansas LLC with the Secretary of State.
2. You obtain a federal tax ID number with the IRS after you have confirmation from Kansas that the LLC is completely filed.
3. You should be able to open a LLC banking account with these two items.
4. If you are going to withhold sales tax or have employees, you will need to register with Kansas Department of Revenue and the Kansas Department of Labor.
5. There is no state business license in Kansas, but some types of businesses or occupations need to be licensed at the state level.  We have quick links and information in your online account.
6. General business licenses are issued at the town/city level. You should check with the county clerk for specific requirements.
7. You obtain a local trade license, if the city or county you're going to be working in requires it.
8. If you're going to have an office or shop, you might need an approval from the city zoning for your type of business in that location.
