Whether starting a new business in Vermont or seeking to register a foreign (non-Vermont) entity to do business in the state of Vermont, the Corporations

Division of the Vermont Secretary of State’s office, as

the state registry for business entity registrations and maintenance, is the place to start.

What can you do on the Secretary of State’s online registration portal? You can simultaneously register your business with:

1.Vermont Secretary of State

2.Vermont Department of Taxes (Meals and Rooms, Sales and Use, Withholding taxes)

3.Vermont Department of Labor

If you have already registered your trade name with the Secretary of State but didn’t register

for Sales and Use, Meals and Rooms, and/or Withholding taxes at that time, you can still use their online registration portal. Go to www.bizfilings.vermont.gov/online, log in with your user name and password, and click on “Department of Taxes Online Services” on the left hand side of the

screen.

Ready to start? For free and convenient registration, click or go to the link below: https://sos.vermont.gov/corporations/registration/

Depending on the business type and other factors, you may need to file separately with other Vermont agencies. Simultaneous filing on the Secretary of State’s online registration portal is not available at this time. These may include:

•Vermont Department of Economic Development

•Vermont Department of Liquor Control

To help speed the processing of your application, please use the Secretary of State’s online registration portal. Use this paper form only if you do not have access to the internet.
