Starting and Operating a Business in Georgia Corporation Filing and Search File an annual registration, check payment status, search for corporations, verify certification, order corporate records, and order certificates of existence or certified documents. Georgia corporations, limited liability companies and limited partnerships are formed by filing with the Corporations Division. Some foreign (out of state) entities that do business in the state of Georgia are required to file with the Corporations Division. The Division serves as custodian of the filings and provides copies and/or certifications of the documents. As an administrative filing agency, the Division does not have authority to intervene in disputes between consumers and businesses, disputes between businesses, or disputes between shareholders, members, officers or other persons involved in an enterprise. Information provided on this site should aid in the process of forming a business entity. While simple to form, the question of whether or not a particular entity should be formed is complex. The Corporations Division recommends that the decision to establish a legal entity be made in consultation with an attorney and an accountant. Note: Due to an abnormally high number of reinstatement requests at this time, processing for Reinstatement Applications can take up to 30 days from the date in which your Request of Reinstatement Application is received in our office.
