Where To Incorporate?

First considerations after a new business decides to incorporate is where to incorporate. For most businesses, incorporate in the state where the corporation will do most of its business. This rule holds especially true for smaller businesses that will likely not expand significantly, or that do not want to conducting business outside of their home state. So, incorporating in your business's home state is usually the safest to start your new business. Then if, after your corporation has been up and running for some time, it appears that you may need to conduct business in another state, you can always register in another state as a foreign corporation also known as "Foreign Entity"
