Corporate Kit and Seal

After a corporation has been registered with the state of formation, in order to distribute the company’s shares of stock and to properly maintain its business records a "Corporate Kit" is required.

Quick Incorporators can provide your new company with our deluxe Corporate Kit which includes the following:

• A personalized 3 ring binder detailed in gold with matching slipcase, will your company name on the spine of the binder
• A Custom Corporate Seal
• 20 custom stock certificates that are numbered and imprinted with your corporate name and state of incorporation
• Index tabs
• Preprinted Minutes and Bylaws
• Stock Transfer Ledger

A Corporate Seal is a small press into which a document is placed to be embossed. The imprint made by the seal indicates the corporation's name, state of incorporation and date of incorporation. Seals were at one time required by all states, but are presently optional in some states. However, an impression made by a seal helps to convey the mark of authority upon corporate documents.

A Stock Certificate is a printed document used to indicate ownership of shares of the corporation. The corporate kit supplied contains 20 custom-printed stock certificates that may be issued at the discretion of the corporation.

The Stock Transfer Ledger contains a record of the number of shares which have been issued by the corporation, as well as the dates of issuance, stock certificate number and the person or entity to whom the shares were issued.

Preprinted Minutes and By-Laws are to be used as a guide or reference for proper record keeping. Minutes are written records of meetings of the Board of Directors and stockholders which document what transpired during such meetings. It is important for the corporation to maintain these records in order to prove the existence and validity of a separate corporate entity.
