If you want to form a business entity that earns a profit, but limits taxes and personal liability, you may want to consider forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC). LLCs also have the same powers afforded to a corporation. Forming an LLC in Virginia is easy, fast, and affordable.
| Virginia LLC Costs | |
|---|---|
| TotalLegal Fee | $99 |
| Virginia Filing Fee | $100 |
| Total | $199 |
The name of the limited liability company must contain the words "limited liability company", "limited company" or an abbreviation.
You will need to provide the name and principal office address of your LLC, the Registered Agent's name and physical address, and the name of the organizer of the owners of the LLC.
Processing time can vary, but Virginia filings typically take 1-2 business days. When approved, TotalLegal will upload your Articles of Organization to your account, and send you an email letting you know you are approved to do business in Virginia.
It's not hard at all. Each Virginia LLC is required to file an annual report. The annual registration fee is $50. The annual report is due the last day of the month your company incorporated or registered to do business in Virginia. The annual report and the fee can be completed and paid easiy online.
Making changes to your LLC in Virginia is pretty inexpensive compared to other states. Most changes you need to amend your LLC and/or change your Registered Agent can be done online, most for $25.00 or less.
TotalLegal provides your LLC with a free Operating Agreement. Since your approved LLC's Articles of Organization do not list the owners (members) of the LLC, having all of this information in your Operating Agreement will make opening a bank account for your LLC in Virginia very easy.
