FAQ

Any entity that conducts business in Georgia may be required to register with the Georgia Department of Revenue. Many factors determine whether you must register. These include — but are not limited to — businesses that employee workers, sell goods, or sell specific products such as alcohol or tobacco.

It costs $100 to file articles of incorporation, and an additional $275 to apply for the tax-exempt status via form 1023-EZ, or $600 via form 1023. So on average, expect to spend between $375 and $700 to set up a nonprofit in the Peach State.

Does forming a nonprofit mean I don't need Georgia business licenses or permits? Forming a nonprofit does not take the place of obtaining a business license, tax registration certificate, and other required business permits.

How Long Does It Take To Start A Georgia Nonprofit? Once your Articles of Incorporation are filed, it takes the state about 12 business days to process your nonprofit formation documents. 2-day expedited processing is available for $120.

The state of Georgia only requires nonprofit organizations to have one board member, but the IRS rarely provides tax-exempt status with less than three unrelated board members. It is recommended for nonprofits to have three to twenty-five board members depending on the size and purpose of the organization.

To change your registered agent in Georgia, you must complete and file an Annual Registration (like an annual report) with the Georgia Secretary of State, Corporations Division. The Annual Registration must be submitted by mail, in person, or online.

Georgia law regarding limited liability companies (“LLCs”) requires only the listing of the registered agent. Thus, members or managers for LLCs are not listed and there is no procedure to “change” them by filing with the Secretary of State.

Georgia state law explicitly requires every LLC to have at least one member. But there isn't a requirement to have more members than that. So single-member LLCs are completely legitimate in Georgia.
