Vermont Foreign Registration / About
About this Vermont service
Vermont Foreign Registration helps companies formed outside Vermont obtain Vermont authority to transact business, so that the daily penalty never starts to run.
What an order covers
You answer a few questions. We draft the Vermont application, order the home certificate so it is still current on filing day, and file online with the Secretary of State.
What falls outside it
Whether an activity counts as transacting business, and which Vermont taxes apply, are questions for a Vermont-licensed lawyer or an accountant.
