Stay Legally compliant

https://www.sba.gov/business-guide/manage-your-business/stay-legally-compliant

 

Stay legally compliant

Keep your business compliant with state and federal business laws. Your legal responsibilities will depend on your business and location.


For your own records: internal requirements

You’ll need to meet external and internal business compliance requirements. Most external requirements involve filing paperwork or paying taxes with state or federal governments.
Internal business requirements are for your own record keeping. You should document your compliance with internal requirements closely with company records. You might need them when you decide to sell your business or if a legal action is taken against your business.

Requirements by business structure

Corporations have the strictest internal requirements. Corporations should hold initial and annual director and shareholder meetings, record their meeting minutes, adopt and maintain bylaws, issue stock to shareholders, and record all stock transfers.
LLCs have less strict internal requirements, but are generally advised to maintain an updated operating agreement, issue membership shares, record all membership interest transfers, and hold annual meetings.
Other business structures have few, if any internal requirements. However, it’s rarely a bad idea to document important decisions with your business.

Comply before they buy

John and Kelly learned about laws and regulations their business has to follow to ensure it operates legally.

Ongoing state filing requirements

Your annual filing requirements will vary based on your business structure and the state. Still, there are a few common requirements to look out for.
  • Annual report or biennial statement. Most states require one or the other. Some states set the due date on the anniversary of the business formation date, and other states pick a specific day for all businesses.
  • Statement filing fees. Fees normally accompany the annual report or biennial statement, which can exceed $300.00.
  • Franchise tax. Some states charge franchise taxes for corporations or LLCs that operate with their border. Formulas vary by state.
  • Initial reports. Some states require initial reports and fees shortly after incorporation.
  • Articles of Amendment. If you’ve made important changes to your company — like address, name, new shares, or membership — report it with articles of amendment.

Ongoing federal filing requirements

Most businesses won’t have federal requirements beyond paying federal taxes and complying with the Affordable Care Act. Make sure that you meet all federal tax obligations, including income and employer taxes.
The Affordable Care Act requires businesses with 50 or more employees to report to the IRS that they provide health coverage.
If your business has any federal licenses, permits, or certificates, you’ll need to keep those up to date.

Other federal requirements

Some business activities are regulated but don’t require filing. Make sure to stay in compliance with any applicable marketing and advertising lawscopyright laws, workplace poster laws, and workplace health and safety laws.

Maintain licenses, permits, and recertification

The documents for staying legally compliant vary based on your industry and location.
Maintain any licenses, permits, or certificates your business received from your state, city, or county. Renewal requirements vary, so it’s best to check with local business licensing offices.
For example, most restaurants need to regularly renew health and safety certificates. Businesses that sell regulated items like tobacco, alcohol, or tires might need to regularly renew their sales permits. For professional services like plumbing or nursing, the state might require certification with a third-party board to keep your license.
For federal licenses, permits, and certificates, check with the issuing institution to confirm renewal requirements for your business. Here’s a list of some common federal agencies and departments that small businesses register with:
