Form your nonprofit for $100 flat
Nonprofit articles of incorporation filed in your state, written so the 501(c)(3) application afterwards is not held up by wording the state was perfectly happy with.
What you get
- Filed within one business day of your order
- IRS purpose and dissolution clauses written into the articles
- 501(c)(3) application available separately for $50 plus the IRS's $275
- State fee included at cost, shown in the breakdown before payment
Filed in a day. One flat price. Nothing you didn't ask for.
Filed within one business day
One tier, one speed, every order. There is no rush fee here because there is no slow lane to buy your way out of.
A specialist reads every filing
Prepared and checked before it is filed. If your name or address will not clear the state, you hear from us before it goes in.
Registered agent at $99, only if you want one
Optional, and it sits beside a free option to name yourself. Most people never need to buy it.
One price, and nothing starts on its own
$100 to form, $50 flat for every filing after. The only thing that can renew is a registered agent you chose, at the price you chose it for. No tiers, no trial that turns into a charge.
How it works
Tell us about your business
Your exact total is on this page before you type anything, and nothing is charged until the last step.
We prepare and file it
A specialist reads every order and files it within one business day. If something looks wrong, we email you before filing, not after.
You get your documents
Confirmation, your stamped documents, and what to do next, in your inbox and your account as the filing moves.
Common questions
No, and this catches people out. Forming the corporation is a state filing. Tax-exempt status is a separate IRS application, Form 1023 or 1023-EZ, made afterwards. A nonprofit that never files it is simply a corporation that cannot distribute profits.
The IRS will not grant exemption unless your articles limit the organisation to exempt purposes and commit its assets to another exempt organisation if it dissolves. Plenty of state templates omit both. Fixing it later means an amendment, so we write it in now.
Most states want at least one director named, and several want three. The order form asks, and we tell you what your state requires before you pay.
Other filings we handle
Comparing us with someone else?
Good. We keep dated comparisons against the four biggest services, with every figure linked to the page we read it on and an honest note about where each of them beats us.
FastBusinessFiling is a filing service, not a law firm or an accounting firm, and does not give legal or tax advice, including advice on which entity type, election, or state fits your situation. For that, talk to a licensed professional.
