What is an Alaska Certificate of Compliance (Good Standing)?
An Alaska Certificate of Compliance, also known as an Alaska Certificate of Good Standing, is a state-issued document confirming the active status of a business in the State of Alaska and that the business has fulfilled certain Alaska “good standing” requirements, such as filing biennial reports and paying the required fees.
Other names for this document include “certificate of existence”, “certificate of status”, and “standing certificate”.
The Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing, which is part of the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, is responsible for issuing Good Standing Certificates for both domestic and foreign filing entities. In other states, this document is generally issued by the office for the Secretary of State.

Why is “good standing” important for your Alaska business entity?Being in good standing allows statutory entities (such as LLCs and corporations) that are formed or registered in the State of Alaska to maintain the rights and privileges of doing business as that statutory entity. The consequences of losing good standing can include fines, the inability to file a lawsuit, the inability to do business in other states, and the administrative dissolution of your business.
