Virginia
Secretary of State

In Virginia, the State Corporation Commission (SCC) is responsible for registering corporations, rather than the Secretary of State. Virginia is known for its business-friendly environment, with a low corporate tax rate and various incentives for industries such as technology, defense, and manufacturing. The state’s proximity to Washington, D.C., provides strategic advantages for businesses involved in government contracting and consulting. Additionally, Virginia’s well-educated workforce and robust infrastructure make it a favorable location for incorporation.
