New Hampshire Certificate of Good Standing FAQs
  • What is a Certificate of Good Standing in New Hampshire (NH)?

    A Certificate of Good Standing provides evidence that a statutory entity, such as an LLC or corporation, legally exists and is in compliance with state requirements. These requirements typically involve the timely filing of annual reports and paying of any necessary state fees.

    In New Hampshire, this document is called a Certificate of Existence and is issued by the New Hampshire Secretary of State’s office. This document is also known as a Certificate of Status in some states.

  • Why is “good standing” important for your business?

    A corporation, LLC, or other statutory entity in New Hampshire with a good standing status is allowed to maintain the rights and privileges of doing business in the state. A business may need to provide a Certificate of Good Standing (or the equivalent) when expanding to other states or for financing, business transactions, and licensing. The loss of good standing can mean fines, losing the ability to file a lawsuit, not being able to do business in other states, and ultimately the administrative dissolution of your business.

  • When do you need a New Hampshire (NH) Certificate of Good Standing (Existence) for an LLC or corporation?

    A business planning to expand to other states may need to supply a good standing certificate as part of the foreign qualification process in those states.

    Lenders, investors, and vendors may require a Certificate of Good Standing before doing business. It may also be needed for licensure, mergers, or acquisitions
