Entity Conversions, Redomestications, Mergers

Timing

2–8 weeks (depending on state and entity type)

If You Do It Yourself

Fees vary — typically $100 - $400

Delivery

Certified filed documents, updated entity certificates, and confirmation of status change

Eligibility

Eligible entities include LLCs, Corporations, and Partnerships in good standing. The entity must have all state filings up to date, no outstanding franchise tax, and clear ownership records. Redomestication availability depends on state law — not all jurisdictions permit it.

Our Entity Conversion, Redomestication, and Merger services assist businesses in changing their legal structure, relocating their state of registration, or merging multiple entities into one — all while maintaining good standing with the Secretary of State and IRS. These complex procedures require precise coordination of corporate documents, tax registrations, and compliance filings.

We handle the entire process — from reviewing your current entity’s status to preparing all conversion or merger filings, obtaining state approvals, and ensuring continuity of EIN, licenses, and ownership records.

Process Overview

Entity Review & Eligibility Check

We begin by reviewing your current company’s structure, formation documents, and tax status to determine whether a conversion, redomestication, or merger applies to your case.

Conversion
Changing from one entity type to another (e.g., LLC → Corporation).

Redomestication
Moving an existing entity’s home state to a new jurisdiction.

Merger
Combining multiple entities into one continuing company.

Document Preparation & Approvals

We prepare all necessary internal and state documents, including:

Plan of Conversion or Merger

RedoAmended Articles / Certificate of Conversionmestica

Resolutions of Members or Directors

Updated Operating Agreement or Bylaws

We ensure all corporate records, ownership interests, and management roles are correctly reflected.

State Filings & Coordination

Once approved internally, we file the appropriate documents with the Secretary of State in both the origin and destination states (for redomestications) or in the surviving entity’s jurisdiction (for mergers).

State processing times and fees vary — typically:

Conversion filings
$100–$300 per state.

Mergers or redomestications
$150–$400 per state.

EIN, Licenses, and Tax Updates

Following state approval, we assist with updating all relevant federal and state records:

IRS EIN confirmation or transfer.

Business license and permit updates.

State tax and unemployment registrations.

Bank, payroll, and vendor account adjustments.

Final Confirmation & Documentation Delivery

You’ll receive:

Certified copies of approved filings.

Updated entity formation or registration certificates.

Summary of next compliance steps for tax, licensing, and annual reporting.

Common Mistakes People Make

Filing conversion or merger documents before obtaining internal member approval.

Overlooking state-specific requirements (some states require advance publication or attorney certification).

Neglecting to cancel old registrations after redomestication.

Failing to update EIN or tax records after a structural change.
