Corporate Minutes/Operating Agreements/Bylaws

What is it?

Corporate minutes are formal documentation of actions taken in your entity as well as who was there to take these actions. A designated individual will take notes which will cover vital data that is covered in meetings as well as organize chronologically and annotate main details like date, time, stated information.  

Bylaws are the rules that are agreed upon and implemented by the board of directors that translate into the structure of the business, duties, and how meetings are conducted; highlight ownership details and meetings; and the process for any additions/removals to the board.  

Should I complete Corporate Minutes/Operating Bylaws?

Yes, all entities are required to have this information recorded and organized.

How to file?

Once you have incorporated your business and the state has processed your incorporation application, you will be contacted by one of our representatives to confirm all information is correct. Once they have confirmed all information, you will be sent a physical packet with documents that include sample and template minutes and bylaws for you to use. Additionally, you will receive a follow-up email with a digital copy if you would like to make more copies.
