SB 1532 - Business Entities Filings (Rev. 11/21/2012) 
 
 	
Changes to California Business Entity Filings effective January 1, 2013 
 	
As of January 1, 2013, new legal requirements apply to business entity documents filed with the 
California Secretary of State’s office.  
 
Entity and Agent Addresses 
 
All formation/registration documents must include the business entity street address and mailing 
address.   
 
All foreign corporation and foreign limited liability company registration documents must 
include the street address of the principal business office address in California, if one exists. 
 
All documents listing an individual person as an agent for service of process must include the 
agent’s California street address.  All corporate agents filing a certificate pursuant to California 
Corporations Code section 1505 must include the California street address where process may be 
served.  A post office box address for an agent for service of process will not be accepted on any 
document. 
 
Future File Date Requests 
 
All future file date requests for corporation and limited liability company documents must be 
included within the document submitted or as an attachment to be made part of the filed 
document. 
 
Corporation and limited liability company documents received before January 1, 2013, with a 
future file date on or after January 1, 2013, must comply with the entity and agent addresses 
requirements listed above. This information may be included in an attachment as part of the filed 
document.       
 
Copy Requests 
 
The Secretary of State will no longer endorse and certify customer-provided copies.  However, a 
customer who submits documents with a filing fee of $25.00 or more will receive one (1) 
uncertified copy of the documents for free and, at the time of filing, the free copy may be 
certified for a $5.00 certification fee.  Customers requesting additional copies will be charged 
$1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional page.  Each certified copy requires an 
additional $5.00 certification fee. 
 
Note:  While domestic stock and foreign corporations are required to pay a total of $25.00 when 
filing the required Statement of Information, the total fees include a $20.00 filing fee and a $5.00 
disclosure fee.  Therefore, customers requesting copies of a Statement of Information 
(corporation or limited liability company) must include the copy fees described above.
