NJ Starting a Business

Provides help with various aspects of starting and running a business such as business registration, trade name registration and applications, business plan help, business structures, financing, tax information and more.

Many people that start companies in New Jersey choose to form a New Jersey LLC.

Another option is to incorporate in New Jersey  by starting a New Jersey corporation, which you can elect to turn into a New Jersey S corporation.

Either way, we recommend Northwest Registered Agent, LLC for business startups because of their quick sign up form and quick service.
