US Incorporation · Post-Incorporation & BOI

After you incorporate,
the housekeeping starts.

Forming the company isn't the finish line. In the first 90 days you may have a beneficial ownership (BOI) report due to FinCEN, a corporate minute book to set up, founder shares to issue, and early registrations to handle — all while annual deadlines start ticking. We assess what actually applies under current rules and handle the housekeeping so nothing is missed.

BOI rules changed in 2025, and the rest of the post-incorporation checklist is easy to overlook from India. We assess your obligations, file only what's required, set up your corporate records, and put you on a compliance calendar.

Forming the company isn't the finish line.

  • BOI / FinCEN

    Do you have a beneficial ownership filing due?

    The Corporate Transparency Act's BOI reporting rules changed in 2025, and what applies depends on whether your company is treated as a domestic or foreign reporting company. Guessing either way is risky.

  • Records

    Is your corporate minute book actually set up?

    Bylaws adopted, initial resolutions signed, shares issued, registers maintained — the records investors and banks ask for are created right after formation, or not at all.

  • Registrations

    Any licenses or registrations you've missed?

    Depending on your activity and states, there may be business licenses, sales-tax registration, or elections due early — easy to overlook from India.

  • Calendar

    Who's tracking the recurring deadlines now?

    Annual reports, franchise tax, and renewals all start ticking the moment you incorporate. Without a calendar, the first missed one is a surprise.

The work right after incorporation is unglamorous and easy to defer — BOI, records, share issuance, registrations, and a calendar of recurring deadlines. Skipping it doesn't hurt immediately; it surfaces later, at a bank or in diligence, when it's harder to fix.

What's included

The first 90 days, handled properly.

FinCEN

BOI assessment & filing

We assess whether your company has a beneficial ownership (BOI) obligation under the current FinCEN rules and file it where required — no more, no less than what applies to your entity.

  • BOI applicability assessed
  • Filed where required
  • Current FinCEN rules tracked
Records

Corporate records & minute book

We set up your minute book — bylaws or operating agreement adopted, initial resolutions, share issuances, and registers — so your records are complete and defensible.

  • Bylaws / operating agreement
  • Initial resolutions & consents
  • Share register maintained
Elections

Tax elections & registrations

Where relevant, we handle early elections and registrations — entity classification, sales-tax registration, and business licenses tied to your activity.

  • Entity classification elections
  • Sales-tax registration
  • Activity-based licenses
Equity

Founder share issuance

We make sure founder shares are actually issued and documented after formation — a step that's surprisingly often skipped and matters at diligence.

  • Shares issued & recorded
  • Founder agreements in place
  • Cap table reflected
Calendar

Compliance calendar

We put your annual report, franchise tax, and renewal dates on a single tracked calendar so nothing recurring slips while you're focused on building.

  • All recurring dates tracked
  • Reminders before deadlines
  • Good standing maintained

With the housekeeping done, we hand you off to bookkeeping and tax compliance so the company runs on rails from here.

FAQ

Post-incorporation & BOI, answered.

What is a BOI report and who has to file one?

A BOI (Beneficial Ownership Information) report is a filing with FinCEN under the US Corporate Transparency Act that discloses the individuals who ultimately own or control a company. Whether you have to file depends on how your company is classified and the current rules — which changed in 2025. We assess your specific entity against the current FinCEN requirements and file only if and as required.

Did the BOI reporting rules change in 2025?

Yes. In 2025 FinCEN issued an interim rule that significantly narrowed BOI reporting — notably exempting US domestic reporting companies and refocusing obligations on foreign reporting companies, with deadlines adjusted. Because this area has been in flux, we track the current FinCEN guidance and tell you what actually applies to your company rather than relying on outdated blanket advice.

As an Indian founder of a US company, do I need to file BOI?

It depends on your structure and how your entity is classified under the current rules. Foreign-owned and foreign-registered structures can have specific obligations even where domestic companies are exempt. We assess your exact situation against the latest FinCEN rules and handle the filing if it's required — and tell you plainly if it isn't.

What happens after I form my US company — what's actually due?

Right after formation you typically need to set up your corporate records (bylaws or operating agreement, initial resolutions, share issuance), assess any BOI obligation, handle early tax elections or registrations relevant to your activity, and start a compliance calendar for annual reports and franchise tax. These first-90-day steps are easy to miss from India, which is exactly what this service covers.

Why does a corporate minute book matter?

Your minute book is the official record of the company — bylaws, resolutions, share issuances, and registers. Banks opening accounts and investors running diligence routinely ask for these documents, and missing or inconsistent records create friction or delay. Setting the minute book up correctly at the start avoids reconstructing it under pressure later.

Are founder shares automatically issued when I incorporate?

No. Forming the company authorizes shares, but founders' shares still have to be formally issued and documented as a separate step. It's commonly overlooked, and an investor discovering that founders were never actually issued their shares is a diligence problem. We make sure issuance is done and recorded.

Can you keep me on top of recurring deadlines?

Yes. Annual reports, Delaware franchise tax, registered-agent renewals, and any state registrations recur on their own schedule. We put them on a tracked compliance calendar with reminders so your company stays in good standing without you watching the dates from India.

What if I incorporated a while ago and skipped these steps?

We can catch you up. We'll assess your BOI position under current rules, reconstruct or complete your corporate records, issue any unissued founder shares, and put you on a clean compliance calendar going forward — closing the gaps before they surface in diligence or with a bank.
