Georgia LLC
LLC Name
-
For a Limited Liability Company, company names must contain the words
"limited liability company" or "limited company" or one of the
abbreviations "L.L.C.," "LLC," "L.C.," or "LC." The name cannot
be the same as or deceptively similar to the corporate name of a
domestic corporation or a foreign qualified corporation.
Limited liability companies are formed by filing articles of organization with the Secretary of State. The
minimum filing requirements of Georgia law are outlined herein. Many other provisions may, and
perhaps should, be included in the articles. It is very simple to form an LLC. The question of whether or
not an LLC should be formed is complex. The Corporations Division strongly recommends that filers
obtain professional legal, tax and/or business advice to assure the filer’s goals and intentions are met,
and that requirements of the law are satisfied, both before and after formation.
Articles of organization must include the information described in O.C.G.A. 14-11-204. Articles must be
submitted on white 8½x11 paper. The articles of organization may be signed by any member of the
limited liability company, any manager if management is vested in one or more managers, or by an
organizer if the entity has been formed but it has no members or managers. The filing attorney may also
sign the articles of organization. The signer should indicate in what capacity he or she is signing.
A name may be reserved prior to filing. A reservation fee of $25 must accompany the request. The
reservation may be made at the Corporations Division web site, http://www.georgiacorporations.org. A
number that remains in effect for 30 days will be provided by return e-mail within 24 hours of receipt of
the request, and often sooner. Place the number on the Transmittal Form 231 that is filed with the
articles of organization. A reservation number may also be obtained by writing to the Division at the
above address. Please provide the name, address and telephone number of the person making the request.
Reservations are not available by telephone. Filings are accepted without a name reservation.
The original and one copy of the articles of organization, a completed Transmittal Form 231, and the
$100.00 filing fee should be mailed to the Corporations Division at the above address. Checks should be
made payable to “Secretary of State.” Articles of organization are effective on the date received by the
Corporations Division unless a post-effective date is specified therein. A certificate of organization will
be mailed to the applicant, usually in less than seven business days. Filings that are not complete will be
returned to the applicant along with a notice that describes the deficiency. If corrected and returned
within 60 days the initial date of receipt will be the date of formation.
