3 easy steps to create your LLC with ZenBusiness
Form an LLC and keep your home, savings, and retirement safe if your business faces lawsuits or debt.
By forming an LLC, you create a legal shield that keeps your personal property safe from business debts and lawsuits.
LLCs let you select how you’re taxed—as a pass-through entity or corporation—to fit your financial situation.
Be successful with our all-in-one platform and expert support.
The structure lets you open business accounts, sign contracts, hire employees, and obtain licenses with built-in protection. Adding “LLC” to your business name also provides the professional credibility needed when working with clients and partners.
An LLC protects your personal assets from business risks by creating a legal separation between you and your business. This means your home, savings, and future stay secure as you grow.
An LLC (Limited Liability Company) protects your personal assets by creating a legal barrier between you and your business. Like a corporation, it shields you from business debts and lawsuits, but with simpler rules and flexible tax options.
You get protection without complexity: no board meetings or extensive recordkeeping required. Plus, you can operate as a single owner or with multiple owners, and choose how you want to be taxed.
An LLC combines the best features of other business types – offering the liability protection of a corporation with the simplicity of a sole proprietorship. Unlike sole proprietorships which offer no legal separation, or corporations which require extensive recordkeeping, LLCs strike a balance between protection and simplicity.
You can choose how your LLC is taxed – as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation – giving you flexibility as your business grows. With fewer ongoing requirements than corporations but similar protection, LLCs work well for most small businesses starting out.
An LLC offers powerful advantages including personal asset protection, flexible tax options, and simpler administration than corporations. The structure provides credibility with customers and vendors while keeping paperwork manageable, letting you focus on growing your business.
Like any business structure, LLCs have some requirements to maintain: you’ll need to pay annual fees, file state paperwork, and keep basic business records. However, these responsibilities are typically lighter than other business structures, making LLCs a practical choice for most owners.
Both LLCs (Limited Liability Companies) and C corporations (C corps) offer limited liability protection, but they differ significantly in ownership structure, taxation, and formal requirements. Here’s a breakdown to help you compare:

ZenBusiness provides an LLC service that helps entrepreneurs form a limited liability company (LLC) online. We manage the required paperwork, ensure quick and accurate filing with the state, and provide ongoing compliance and business management services.
The time it takes to form an LLC depends largely on how fast your Secretary of State processes the paperwork, which varies widely by state and time of year. However, while we can’t control the state’s filing speeds, we can control how fast we process your filing. While we typically process your order in 5-7 business days with our free Starter package, both Pro and Premium packages include Rush filing. With Rush filing, your order is processed in one business day. (Processing times are based on receiving complete information.)
The cost for forming an LLC with ZenBusiness depends on the package you choose:
The cost of forming an LLC with ZenBusiness includes both state fees and service fees. State filing fees vary by state, usually ranging from $50 to $300. ZenBusiness offers several service packages, such as:
Each package comes with different features and levels of support. Additionally, optional services like EIN filing, registered agent services, Worry-Free Compliance, and operating agreements may add extra costs, depending on your needs.
Yes. Buy with confidence knowing that your purchase is backed by our 60-day money-back guarantee. If you wish to cancel a subscription or add-on service, please contact customer support within 60 days for a full refund, less any state or other third-party fees. After 60 days, we can cancel your subscription or service, but no refunds will be issued.
That depends on which package you choose. Here’s a breakdown of what’s included in each of our three formation packages:
Yes, you can change your LLC name after it has been formed, but you will need to file an amendment with the state. We can assist you with this with either our amendment filing service or our Worry-Free Compliance service.
To add a member to your LLC, you will need to file an amendment with the state and update your operating agreement.
Yes, ZenBusiness can act as your registered agent, but you will need to sign up for the registered agent service and provide the necessary information.
No, you do not need to have a physical address in the state where you’re forming your LLC, but you will need to provide a physical address for the registered agent.
