Pennsylvania

PA Starting a Business

Help with various aspects of starting and running a business, such as business registration, trade name registration and applications, business plan help, business structures, financing, etc.

Many people that start a company in Pennsylvania decide to form a Pennsylvania LLC.

In other cases, owners decide to incorporate in Pennsylvania with a corporation in Pennsylvania, which can be elected to be a Pennsylvania S corporation.

Either way, we like to recommend Northwest Registered Agent for business startups because of their suite of business maintenance tools and great customer service.
