Change your business information by filing articles of amendment.

What are Articles of Amendment?

Articles of Amendment (sometimes referred to as Certificates of Amendment), allows you to make changes to your business's information currently on file with the state. Typically, the information that is updated includes the details provided when you submitted your articles of organization (LLC) or articles of incorporation (corporation).

It is always a good idea, and in most cases required, to notify the state of any changes to your company information. Failing to do so could put your business at risk of falling out of good standing with the state.

What information can I change by filing an amendment?

All of the details you submitted when you initially formed your business can be updated by filing an amendment, including:

• Name and address of the registered agent
• Principal office address
• Names and addresses of directors or members
• Description of business activities
• Number of authorized shares
• Any other information included in the Articles of Incorporation

How long does it take to complete articles of amendment filings?

As with most business filings, the turn-around time depends largely on the state, and the current volume of filings to be processed. Generally, filing an amendment takes 2-4 weeks to complete. If you need to update your information quickly, MyCorporation offers rush service, which in most cases, cuts the time to around a week.

How do I change my company information if I have foreign qualified my business?

If you filed a foreign qualification to allow your business to operate in a state, it is important to determine whether or not the change you are making will require an additional amendment filing in the foreign state. If you are unsure, give us a call and our team can help you conduct that research.
