FILING PROCEDURES FOR FORMING
A GEORGIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY
Limited liability companies ( “LLC”) are formed by filing articles of organization with the Secretary of
State. The minimum requirements of Georgia law are outlined herein. Many other provisions may,
and perhaps should, be included in the articles. It is very simple to form an LLC. The question of
whether or not an LLC should be formed is complex. The Corporations Division strongly
recommends that filers obtain professional legal, tax and/or business advice to assure the filer’s goals
and intentions are met, and that requirements of the law are satisfied, both before and after formation
of the entity.
Name Reservation
A name may be reserved prior to filing. A reservation fee of $25 must accompany the request. The
reservation may be made online or by submitting a Name Reservation Request form. A name reservation
number that remains in effect for 30 days will be provided by return email within 24 hours of receipt of an
online request and within 36 hours of receipt of a mail-in request, and often sooner. Place the number on
the Transmittal Form 231 that is filed with the articles of organization. A reservation number may also be
obtained by writing to the Division at the above address. Name reservations are not available by
telephone. Entity formation filings are accepted without a name reservation.
SAMPLE PREVIEW
Preparation of Articles of Organization
Articles of organization must include the information described in O.C.G.A. § 14-11-204. Articles may
be filed online or mailed to the Corporations Division at the above address. Articles mailed to the office
must be submitted on white 8½x11 paper. The articles of organization may be signed by any member
of the limited liability company, any manager if management is vested in one or more managers, or
by an organizer. An attorney in fact may also sign the articles of organization. The signer(s) should
indicate in what capacity he or she is signing.
Filing of Articles of Organization and Data Transmittal Form 231
For filings not submitted online, the original and one copy of the articles of organization, a completed
Transmittal Form 231, and the $100.00 filing fee should be mailed or delivered to the Corporations
Division at the above address. Checks should be made payable to “Secretary of State.” Articles of
organization are effective on the date received by the Corporations Division unless a delayed effective
date is specified therein. A certificate of organization will be mailed to the applicant, usually in five to
seven business days. Workload issues will sometimes result in a longer turnaround time, perhaps up to
12 business days. Filings that are not complete will be returned to the applicant along with a notice that
describes the deficiency. If corrected and returned within 60 days the initial date of receipt will be the
date of formation. Deficient filings are deemed abandoned if still pending after 60 days from initial
receipt of the filing. After the filing is deemed abandoned, a new filing, including new filing fees, will be
required.
Annual Registration
Each LLC must file an annual registration with the Secretary of State. The fee is $50.00. The initial
registration is due between January 1 and April 1 of the year following the calendar year in which the
LLC was formed. The annual registration should be filed online at
