Florida
Secretary of State

In Florida, the Division of Corporations, which is part of the Department of State, is responsible for registering corporations. The current Secretary of State is Cord Byrd. One interesting aspect of incorporating in Florida is the lack of a state income tax for individuals, which can be advantageous for small business owners who report business income on their personal tax returns. Florida is also known for its business-friendly environment, with relatively low incorporation fees and a strong economy driven by industries like tourism, real estate, and international trade. These factors make it an attractive state for entrepreneurs and companies looking to incorporate.
