Business Incorporation in New York: Step-by-Step Legal Guide
Incorporating in New YorkTwo things founders learn late. The publication requirement applies to LLCs, not corporations. If you form an LLC, you publish in two newspapers for six consecutive weeks in the county of your designated office. The cost varies sharply by county, and New York County is the expensive one.
