Where Oklahoma filings get tripped up
These are the things we have actually run into filing in Oklahoma, in plain English.
- A name conflict means a rejection, not a correction
- Oklahoma voids a filing whose name is too close to an existing company, including inactive ones, and refiling is a new filing. That is why we check the register before submitting.
- Adding “Oklahoma” rarely makes a name different enough
- In most states, adding the state's name is a reliable way past a conflict. Oklahoma has refused it, so if your first choice is taken we will suggest alternatives that differ in a real word.
- City and ZIP must match USPS exactly
- Oklahoma refuses nicknames such as “OKC” and any city that does not match the ZIP code's official town name. Use the town name the Postal Service uses for your ZIP.
- The principal office cannot be a PO box
- Oklahoma wants a street address for the principal place of business.
What we need from you
Your business name, the address for the company, and the names of the members. That is the whole application, and it takes a few minutes. We prepare and file the Articles of Organization for you, and handle the state's payment.
What you get
Your stamped Certificate of Limited Liability Company from the state, delivered straight to your account as soon as Oklahoma issues it. From there you can add an EIN, an operating agreement, membership certificates, or registered agent service.
