A Certificate of Good Standing (also known as a Certificate of Existence or Status) is an official state-issued document that confirms your business is legally registered, compliant with state requirements, and authorized to operate. It verifies that your entity has met all obligations—such as filing annual reports and paying required fees—up to the current date.
