Make sure your business is set up properly
A guided checklist that walks through every part of being a legitimate, well-organized business — and shows you exactly what to fix to get into good standing and stay there.
Run your compliance checkWhat we check
Entity status
Confirm your LLC or corporation is active and recognized in your state of formation, and flag if it has lapsed or been administratively dissolved.
Registered agent
Verify you have a current registered agent on file so government and legal notices always reach you.
Annual / biennial report
Track your report due dates and fees so you never fall out of good standing by missing a filing.
EIN & tax setup
Make sure you have your federal EIN and that your business — not your personal SSN — is the identity behind your accounts.
Licenses & permits
List every business license, professional license, and sales-tax permit you hold, with renewal dates in one calendar.
Operating agreement
Confirm you have an operating agreement (or bylaws) on file documenting ownership and how decisions are made.
Business banking
Check that you operate from a dedicated business bank account in your legal name, separate from personal funds.
Records & documents
Keep your formation documents, EIN letter, agreements, and licenses organized and ready when anyone needs to see them.
Company Base OS helps you organize and track this information; it is not a law firm and does not file documents with the state or provide legal advice on your behalf. You confirm your own filings with your Secretary of State and any licensing authorities.
