What documents do I need to file to form a limited liability company in South Dakota?

Asked 6 months ago
To form a limited liability company (LLC) in South Dakota, you will need to file several required documents. Firstly, you must complete and submit the Articles of Organization form, which includes details about your LLC such as its name, registered agent, purpose, and duration. Additionally, you will need to provide a completed LLC Operating Agreement, which outlines the structure and operation of your company. The filing fee for the Articles of Organization is $150. Furthermore, if your LLC will conduct specific professional services, you must include a Certificate of Authority. Lastly, if your LLC is being managed by one or more managers instead of members, a Statement of Authority must be filed. It is important to consult the South Dakota Secretary of State's website for the most up-to-date information and any additional requirements.
