What State Should I Incorporate In

New Text	Laws and fees governing corporations can vary from state to state. While you are able to form a corporation in any state you choose, most of our customers choose to form their corporation in the state in which they are conducting business. This is typically the most simple and cost effective way to operate your business for the following reasons: Any state that you do business in will require you to file a "Foreign Qualification" if you are not incorporated there, costing additional fees and paperwork. (e.g. If you form a corporation in California, but wish to do business in Arizona, Arizona will require that you Foreign Qualify). If you form a corporation in one state and do business in another, you could subject your business to taxation in both states. Many states will tax a corporation that exists in their state, even if it is not doing business there.
Special Considerations for Delaware and Nevada
New Text	There are certain circumstances that could make it beneficial to incorporate in a state other than your home state. If you intend to do business in several different states or if your home state has complex laws or high tax rates and filing fees, you may want to consider forming your business in another state. Delaware and Nevada are commonly recognized as states that are attractive to businesses. Delaware is recognized as having modern and flexible corporate laws, a business friendly government, and a customer service oriented staff that can process documents and requests much quicker than other states. Nevada does not charge a state corporate income tax or a personal income tax and allows for a higher level of privacy for a business and its owner's personal information.
