Filed with the state, delivered anywhere

LLC formation, trade name (DBA) registration, and EIN filing are state and federal processes: your documents go to the Colorado Secretary of State and the IRS, not to city hall. Being our home base means Thornton businesses can also arrange an in-person appointment (contact us first), but every filing is prepared and delivered digitally either way.

Colorado state fees, included in our package prices

  • LLC Articles of Organization: $50
  • Trade name (DBA) registration: $20, with a $5 annual renewal
  • Periodic report: $25 per year

Local licensing is separate

What does differ from city to city is local business licensing and, in home-rule cities, local sales tax. Thornton sits in Adams County alongside Northglenn, Westminster, and Broomfield, and each city administers its own local requirements. We handle the state and federal side; check with your city about its local licensing rules for your type of business.
