Frequently asked questions

Does Georgia require an LLC operating agreement?

Georgia does not require an LLC to file an operating agreement with the state, but having a signed written agreement is strongly recommended. It sets ownership, voting, and transfer rules and helps show that the LLC is separate from its owners.

What annual filings does a Georgia LLC have?

The LLC must file an annual registration with the Georgia Secretary of State between January 1 and April 1 each year.

What is the difference between the Standard and Professional LLC Operating Agreement?

The Standard edition is a complete, state-aware LLC Operating Agreement for common situations. The Professional edition adds longer clause coverage, schedules, and optional modules for more complex matters. You can preview either edition free before you pay.
