About EntitySearch HQ
Every US state's official business entity search in one place: direct register links, verified filing facts and fees, sourced and dated
What is on this site
4 guides, each with its sources on the page , 156 answers to the questions around them , and the finder.
- Certificates of good standing: A certificate of good standing (some states say certificate of existence, status or subsistence) is the state register's official statement that an entity is registered and current on its filings.
- Do you need a registered agent?: Every US state requires a registered LLC or corporation to keep a registered agent on file, and the agent appears in the entity's public record.
- Business registration numbers: A 'business registration number' in the US is not one number; it is at least two systems.
- Changing a registered agent: Changing a registered agent is a state filing that amends the entity's public record; it is complete when the register shows the new agent, not when a service's dashboard says so.
