Regards notaries public; limited liability companies; fees

SB 130 updates the fees charged by the Ohio Secretary of State for various business filings and administrative services. The bill specifically sets new price schedules for incorporating domestic and foreign corporations, forming limited liability companies, and filing amendments or dissolution documents. For example, the cost to file articles of incorporation for a corporation that issues stock now depends on the number of shares authorized, while fees for non-stock corporations remain at ninety-nine dollars. Additionally, the legislation establishes specific charges for services such as minister marriage licenses, document copying, and biennial reports. These changes directly affect businesses and individuals who must pay the Secretary of State to register or maintain their legal entities in Ohio.
