Certified Copies Service from vState Filings

When you need official proof of your company’s existence, history, or legal standing, obtaining Certified Copies of your business documents is essential. At vState Filings, we make this process quick, accurate, and completely hassle-free. If you are verifying business details for banking, compliance, or internal records, we help you get state-certified copies of your important formation documents with ease.

Certified Copies are state-issued duplicates of your original business filings, such as Articles of Incorporation, Certificates of Formation, or other official records. These documents come stamped and signed by the Secretary of State, confirming that the copy matches the original record on file.

If you need a Certified Copy for your LLC, corporation, or nonprofit, vState Filings is here to handle every step for you.

What are Certified Copies?

A Certified Copy is an exact duplicate of your filed business documents, verified and authenticated by the state. These copies serve as official proof that your business is properly registered and in good standing.

You might need Certified Copies for several reasons, including:

-Opening a business bank account or applying for a business loan
-Registering your company in another state (foreign qualification)
-Renewing business licenses or permits
-Handling legal or tax-related matters
-Keeping your corporate records up to date

Each Certified Copy includes the state’s seal or signature, ensuring it is recognized as an official and legally valid document.

Why You Might Need a Certified Copy

There are many situations where Certified Copies are required or recommended. For example, if your business plans to expand into a new state, you will likely need to submit a Certified Copy of your Articles of Organization to the Secretary of State in that state. Similarly, when dealing with banks, investors, or licensing agencies, a Certified Copy can provide additional proof of legitimacy and compliance.

Even if you’re not currently required to present one, having a Certified Copy of your core business filings on hand is a smart way to maintain organized and complete business records.
