What is a Maryland Good Standing Certificate (Maryland Certificate of Existence)
|
A
Maryland Good Standing Certificate (Maryland Certificate of Existence) is issued by
the Maryland Secretary of State and is often required for loans, to renew business licenses, or for tax or other business
purposes in the state of Maryland or in any other state.
A Maryland Certificate of Good Standing is evidence that your Maryland business franchise - your Maryland
Corporation or Maryland LLC - is in Existence, is authorized to
transact business in the state of Maryland, and complies with all state of Maryland requirements and therefore is in
"Good Standing" in the state of Maryland (MD).
Also known as a Maryland Certificate of Existence, a
Maryland Certificate of Status or a Maryland
Certificate of Authority, the Maryland Good Standing
Certificate is a one page document which looks like a letter and bears the seal of the state of Maryland
Secretary of State or another Maryland state agency if the Maryland Secretary of State is not the issuing authority.
A Maryland Good Standing Certificate is provided by the Maryland Secretary of State and is conclusive evidence of the
existence of your Maryland business franchise - your Maryland Corporation or Maryland LLC.
In most cases a Maryland Certificate of Good Standing can be valid up to
three months.
To obtain a Maryland Good Standing Certificate (Maryland Certificate of
Existence), your company must be registered as a legal entity with the Maryland Secretary of State, i.e., your company is
in existence in the state of Maryland, and cannot be in default of
Maryland corporate rules, or suspended by the state of Maryland.
|
Can I get a Maryland Certificate of Good Standing for a MD Sole Proprietorship or MD DBA
|
If you own a Maryland business and have not formed a Corporation, LLC, Partnership or other legal entity in the state of Maryland,
then you are a Sole Proprietor by default.
Nothing needs to be filed with the Maryland Secretary of State to create a Sole Proprietorship.
If you plan to use a name different from your first and last name then you would register in the Maryland county in which you do business
with your first and last name "Doing Business As" (DBA) the name of your business (for example: Sue Smith, DBA Sue's Maryland Business).
A Maryland Good Standing Certificate (Maryland Certificate of Existence) is
issued by the Maryland Secretary of State for business entities that have registered with the state of Maryland.
A Sole Proprietorship or DBA is not normally registered with the Maryland Secretary of State so a
Maryland Certificate of Good Standing cannot be issued for them.

MD Certificate of Existence for Foreign Qualification in state other than Maryland
|
|
A Corporation or LLC that is registered in the state of Maryland may require a Maryland Good Standing Certificate (Maryland Certificate of Existence) to qualify as a
"Foreign Corporation" in a state other than Maryland.
A Foreign Corporation is a Corporation that is registered with a state agency, usually the Secretary of State, 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 Maryland is a "Foreign Corporation"
in the state of Maryland.
|
|
Most states, including Maryland, require you to register as a Foreign Corporation with a state agency, usually the Secretary of State,
in order to do business in their state.
In order to register as a Foreign Corporation in any state you must provide evidence that you are registered and are in
Good Standing in another state as a Domestic Corporation or LLC.
This evidence is a Certificate of Good Standing (Certificate of Existence/Certificate of Authority) from the state in which your
Corporation or LLC was originally formed.
