A Corporation is a legal business entity that is separate from its owners, providing limited liability protection to its shareholders. This means the personal assets of the owners are generally protected from business debts and liabilities.
The best State to set up your corporation depends on your business goals, where you operate, and whether you’re seeking investors. If you have more questions about this, please book a Business Structure Consulting
There is a lot that is required to stay in compliance and maintain when you have a corporation, but ZATEGIC is here to help you. We offer our Business Compliance Service that will help you stay in compliance.
A corporation is taxed differently depending on whether it is classified as a C-Corporation or an S-Corporation. We recommend consulting with a tax professional regarding taxes.

* Our fee does not include the state filing fees (varies by State)
A Partnership LLC (Limited Liability Company taxed as a partnership) is a business structure where two or more owners (called members) form an LLC, and the IRS treats the business as a partnership for tax purposes.
The best state to set up your Partnership LLC depends on your specific business goals, where you operate, and whether you plan to do business nationally or locally.
To stay in compliance with a Partnership LLC, you need to follow federal, state, and internal operational rules that ensure your business remains legally active, avoids penalties, and protects its members. At ZATEGIC, we offer Business Compliance Services that will help you stay in compliance.
A Partnership LLC is taxed as a pass-through entity by default, meaning the LLC itself does not pay federal income tax. Instead, profits and losses “pass through” to the individual members (partners), who report them on their personal tax returns. We suggest speaking with a tax professional regarding taxes for your business.

A Series LLC is a unique type of Limited Liability Company that allows a single LLC to have multiple “series” or sub-entities within it—each with its own assets, liabilities, operations, and members, while still being part of the umbrella of one legal LLC.
Please note that a Series LLC is not recognized in all states. There are only certain states that allow Series LLC. Please check with the State you want to set it up in to find out whether it is allowed.
With a Series LLC you must follow strict operational separations to maintain liability protection (separate records, bank accounts, contracts, etc.) We suggest speaking with an attorney to determine if this strategy works for you.
May require separate filings per series (varies by state & IRS treatment). We recommend consulting with a tax professional regarding taxes/

A non-profit organization (NPO) is a legal entity that operates for a purpose other than making a profit for its owners or shareholders. Instead, any surplus revenue it generates is reinvested into the organization to further its mission, which is usually centered around social, educational, charitable, religious, or cultural goals.
Most often you will set up your LLC in the state where you are conducting business or where your rental property is located.
There are specific reasons that setting up in these states could be beneficial, like for privacy or COPE protection. We suggest speaking with an attorney to determine if this strategy works for you.

An offshore entity is a company, trust, or other legal structure that is established in a jurisdiction outside of where its owners or primary operations are based—typically in a country known for favorable tax laws, privacy protections, and business-friendly regulations.
While offshore entities are legal, they must be set up and used in compliance with international laws, including FATCA, CRS, and local tax reporting obligations. Transparency and proper legal structuring are key.
Maintaining an offshore entity requires more than just formation—it involves ongoing compliance, administrative upkeep, and operational integrity to stay legal, functional, and effective.
Setting up an offshore entity can offer tax advantages, but it also comes with compliance responsibilities—especially for residents or citizens of high-tax countries like the U.S., UK, or Canada. Offshore entities can offer significant tax advantages, but they must be structured carefully and in full compliance with international tax laws. Always consult a qualified tax advisor or legal consultant when using offshore strategies.

An Entity Foreign Registration is the legal process of registering your existing business—originally formed in one state (your “home” or domestic state)—to operate in another state (foreign state).
Despite the name, “foreign” here refers to a different U.S. state, not another country.
You typically need to register as a foreign entity if:
You have a physical office or employees in another state
You’re conducting regular business or contracts in that state
You’re opening a store, warehouse, or expanding operations
A client or government agency requires it for contracts or licensing
Legally authorizes your business to operate across state lines
Ensures compliance with state-specific laws and taxes
Allows you to maintain your original business structure while expanding
It is not forming a new company
It does not change your original state of formation
It is not the same as registering in another country

Entity Dissolution is the official legal process of closing your business with the state. It ensures your business is no longer liable for taxes, fees, or regulatory filings—protecting you from future legal or financial obligations.
When you stop operating your business, simply walking away isn’t enough. If you don’t formally dissolve your entity with the state and tax agencies, your business is still considered active—and that can cost you.
💸 Avoid Ongoing Fees & Taxes
States may continue to charge annual fees, franchise taxes, and penalties even if you’re not doing business.
⚖️ Prevent Legal Liability
Without formal dissolution, you may still be personally or legally responsible for debts, lawsuits, or compliance issues.
🧾 Close the Books with Confidence
Dissolution officially ends your obligations with the IRS, state tax boards, and licensing authorities.
✅ Protect Your Credit & Reputation
Outstanding business obligations can impact your credit, future ventures, or even show up in public records.
📚 Ensure Clean Recordkeeping
Properly filing final documents and distributing assets helps avoid disputes and keeps your business history in order.

This agreement outlines the terms, conditions, responsibilities, and rights of both the seller and the buyer to ensure a smooth and legally compliant transaction.
When you’re buying or selling a business—or transferring ownership between partners—a handshake isn’t enough. A Company Transfer Agreement protects everyone involved by putting the entire transaction in writing.
