How does one Incorporate in Georgia?

Answer:
To incorporate in Georgia, it is necessary to

draft and file an Articles of Incorporation form with the office of the Secretary of State. The Articles must be completed on standard paper and must be signed by one of the initial incorporators or an authorized attorney. Prior to filing the Articles of Incorporation, the incorporators may request reservation of the corporate name, but this step is not necessary.

The Articles of Incorporation must include the entity's name, the number of stock shares being authorized for issuance, the street address of the principal office, the name of the on-site registered agent, and the names and addresses of each of the incorporators.

Within 90 days of incorporating, the entity must file its initial annual registration form with the Secretary of State's office. This document must name three of the corporation's principal officers.
