Amendments and Corrections

When a business changes its structure, business activity (purpose) or business name, it must file an amendment.

Out-of-state (foreign) entities are required to provide a certified copy of the amendment filing approved by its domestic state of original formation. This office will reject any foreign amendment filing received without the certified copy of the amendment from the home state.
