INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE:

A corporation is a complex form of business structure. This form contains only the minimum provisions required by law to be set forth in Articles of Incorporation. Additional provisions may be advisable or necessary, depending on the specific needs of each corporation. Those corporations intending to apply for a tax exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service may be required to add information not included on this form. Consideration should be given to the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating, and the legal and tax consequences. You are strongly advised to seek legal advice from an attorney and tax and other business advice from an accountant. 1. File the Articles of Incorporation, along with an affidavit of registered agent, and the requisite $60 filing fee with the Secretary of State. The Articles of Incorporation may be delivered to the Secretary of State in advance, for filing as of any specified date (and any given time on such date) within thirty days after the time of delivery. Requests should be made in writing and must be submitted along with the Articles of Incorporation. Upon filing with our office, you will receive a certified copy of the Articles and a Certificate of Incorporation. Within thirty (30) days after filing the Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State's office, a multiple original of Articles (or a copy certified by the Secretary of State), and a copy of the Certificate of Incorporation must be filed with the office of the recorder of mortgages in the parish where the corporation's registered office is located. Please call the Internal Revenue Service at (800) 829-4933 for information to obtain a corporation's federal tax identification number prior to incorporation. If the Articles of Incorporation are filed within five (5) working days (exclusive of legal holidays) after acknowledgement, the corporate existence shall begin as of the time of such acknowledgement.
