Incorporate in New York

New York State: home of rolling hills and quiet dairy farms, beautiful Autumn foliage and the world's most exciting city. Down the fog covered Hudson River Valley past State Parks and increasingly busy shipyards you come to Manhattan, the most business friendly island in the United States.

Running a company in New York offers certain unmatchable benefits. From the state's largely pro-business laws to its pivotal connection with European and global markets, it's no surprise that more companies are formed here than anywhere else. Opportunities run rampant, and for the savvy New York small business owner, it's easy to hear them knocking.

But the day comes in almost all major companies when they must take their organizational structure to the next level. Whether you operate in Albuquerque or Brooklyn, you will some day need the increased security, investments, and buying capabilities that come from forming a New York State corporation or LLC.

Incorporating in New York State is beneficial for companies for a number of reasons. First, New York State corporations offer the members (or shareholders in a publicly traded corporation) limited liability, in that only the money that they put in can be lost, and there is no responsibility for debt. Therefore, a New York corporation is capable of making riskier (and potentially more lucrative) business moves, without sacrificing too much personal financial security.

Second, New York State corporations are capable of generating massive amounts of capital, especially when they are publicly traded. Issuing stock on a New York corporation allows you to develop your business plans with increased investments, but without losing control of your original business plan.

Lastly, incorporating a business in New York is a good idea for your business, and for yourself, as your state issued charter will allow your business to outlive its principals, increasing the chances for higher investments, and for longer returns on those investments.

For some people, forming a corporation in New York has its drawbacks. For them, forming a New York LLC may be the right business plan. An LLC, or Limited Liability Company, allows businesses to enjoy some of the benefits of a New York corporation-less personal financial responsibility (no assumption of LLC debts on the part of the investors)-without the drawbacks, such as double taxation.

When you incorporate in New York with more than 75 stockholders or with any investor that is an entity (as opposed to a natural body), your corporation will be forced to pay tax on its earnings, and the dividends that the stockholders receive will also be taxable. There are two ways to avoid this, the first is to from an S-Corp, which has the aforementioned limitations on the types of stockholders that can invest, and the second is to form a New York LLC, which avoids the double taxation, while retaining the security of a corporation.
