Where To Register A Company?

To register a company in USA ( also known as ''incorporation'' ), you should know the corporate sytem and basic laws in the United States. The United States the corporate system is very diverse, every state has its own provisions regarding incorporation.

Corporations

A corporation, sometimes called a C corp, is a legal entity that's separate from its owners. Corporations offer the strongest protection to its owners from personal liability, but require more extensive record-keeping, operational processes, and reporting. Also, cost to form a corporation is higher than other structures. . Corporations pay income tax on their profits.

Corporations have a completely independent life separate from its shareholders. If a shareholder leaves the company or sells his or her shares, the C corp can continue doing business relatively undisturbed.

Corporations can raise funds through the sale of stock, which can also be a benefit in attracting employees. For further information, you may visit https://www.sba.gov/business-guide/launch-your-business/choose-business-structure#section-header-1

S Corporations

This (S Corps) is a special type of corporation that's designed to avoid the double taxation drawback of regular C corps. S corps allow profits, and losses to be passed through directly to owners' personal income without being subject to corporate taxation. There are special limits and critereias on those corporations.

Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)

The limited liability company (LLC) is a relatively new type of legal entity that provides flexibility. It combines both the advantage of limited liability of a corporation and the tax status of a partnership, i.e. the avoidance of double corporate income tax. The formation procedure is very similar to such of a corporation. It requires a written LLC agreement and a certificate of formation duly filed with the respective state authorities. However, in contrast to the corporation, an LLC can only have a limited term.

Partnerships

Partnerships are the simplest structure for two or more people to own a business together. There are two common kinds of partnerships: limited partnerships (LP) and limited liability partnerships (LLP).

Limited partnerships have only one general partner with unlimited liability, and all other partners have limited liability. Limited liability partnerships are similar to limited partnerships, but give limited liability to every owner. An LLP protects each partner from debts against the partnership, they won't be responsible for the actions of other partners. 

Partnerships can be a good choice for businesses with multiple owners, professional groups (like attorneys), and groups who want to test their business idea before forming a more formal business. For further information, you may visit https://www.irs.gov/businesses/partnerships
