INFO ON HOW TO INCORPORATE IN MASSACHUSETTS, OR REGISTER YOUR OUT OF STATE BUSINESS:

To incorporate in Massachusetts takes a financial commitment. Massachusetts is one of the highest taxed states in America. High filing fees and High dept of revenue fees take claim to many a business owner's bottom line. Corporate Filings made in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts are made with the Secretary of the Commonwealth. You can file a domestic corporation, a domestic LLC, or a foreign LLC on-line. A foreign corporation must be mailed in. Any filings mailed in must have original inked signatures on them. Your Massachusetts Registered Agent must sign the document before you file it.

Domestic entities take about 1-2 days for the Secretary to process. Foreign qualifications take about 1-2 weeks to get finalized. Any foreign entity must present with its filing a current certificate of good standing from its' home state that isn't older than 90 days. It must also be an original certificate. If your state only produces them on-line, that is ok.

Domestic corporations cost $275.00 plus $25.00 Massachusetts Registered Agent appointment to file by paper. If you file on-line, the state does not charge the $25.00 agent appointment fee.

Corporations have to pay a minimum $425.00 dept of revenue fee every year, plus a $125.00 annual report fee 2.5 months after the end of their fiscal year.

Foreign corporations cost $400.00 to file, and must be done by paper. It's the same annual fees as domestic corporations.

Domestic LLC's cost $500.00 to organize in Massachusetts, and have a $500.00 annual report fee, BUT don't have to pay the huge dept of revenue fees. The same goes for foreign LLC's

There is no state provided forms for LLC's, but you can do it on-line.

LLC's annual reports are due on the anniversary of the original filing with the Secretary.

If you would like to change your Massachusetts registered agent, it does not cost to do so on-line. A paper change of agent will cost $25.00 to file.

Certificates of good standing cost $25.00.
