What is an Illinois Good Standing Certificate (Illinois Certificate of Existence)
An Illinois Good Standing Certificate (Illinois Certificate of Existence) is issued by the Illinois Secretary of State and is often required for loans, to renew business licenses, or for tax or other business purposes in the state of Illinois or in any other state.  An Illinois Certificate of Good Standing verifies that your Illinois Corporation or Illinois LLC is in Existence, is authorized to transact business in the state of Illinois, and complies with all state of Illinois requirements and therefore is in "Good Standing" in the state of Illinois (IL).

Also known as an Illinois Certificate of Existence, an Illinois Certificate of Status or an Illinois Certificate of Authority, the Illinois Good Standing Certificate is a one page document provided by the Illinois Secretary of State and is conclusive evidence of the existence of your Illinois Corporation or Illinois LLC.  In most cases an Illinois Certificate of Good Standing can be valid up to three months.

To obtain an Illinois Good Standing Certificate (Illinois Certificate of Existence), your company must be registered as a legal entity with the Illinois Secretary of State, i.e., your company is in existence in the state of Illinois, and cannot be in default of Illinois corporate rules, or suspended by the state of Illinois.

Foreign Qualifications
Many companies require a Illinois Good Standing Certificate (Illinois Certificate of Existence) to qualify as a "Foreign Corporation" in a state other than Illinois.  A Foreign Corporation is a corporation that is registered in one state and has the Authority to do business in another state.  For example, a corporation registered in the state of California that plans to do business in the state of Illinois is a "Foreign Corporation" in the state of Illinois. 
Most states require you to register as a Foreign Corporation in order to do business in their state.  In order to register as a Foreign Corporation, you must prove that you are registered in another state as a domestic Corporation, and you usually have to prove this with a state Certificate of Good Standing (Certificate of Existence/Certificate of Authority). 

PCF provides Foreign Qualification services in the state of Illinois as well as any other state.  For more information about our services click here.
