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

PA Certificate of Existence for Foreign Qualification in state other than Pennsylvania
|
|
A Corporation or LLC that is registered in the state of Pennsylvania may require a Pennsylvania Good Standing Certificate (Pennsylvania Certificate of Existence) to qualify as a
"Foreign Corporation" in a state other than Pennsylvania.
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 Pennsylvania is a "Foreign Corporation"
in the state of Pennsylvania.
|
|
Most states, including Pennsylvania, 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.
