Out-of-state Incorporation
Can Massachusetts resident form a corporation in Rhode Island without maintaining residence in Rhode Island?
Brad,
The simple answer is yes, you could form a corporation in Rhode Island as a Massachusetts resident. When you form a business in the U.S., you are allowed to use a foreign physical address (international or out of state) for the business address.
Keep in mind when registering a business in a different state, you will need to be able to provide a Registered Agent with a physical location in the state of the business registration. If you need, we can provide this service for you (just selecting it on our registration form).
