IA Starting a Business

Help with various aspects of starting and running a business, such as business registration, trade name registration and applications, business plan help, business structures, financing, etc.

Many people that start companies in Iowa choose to form an Iowa LLC.

Another option is to incorporate in Iowa  by starting an Iowa corporation, which you can elect to turn into an Iowa S corporation.

Either way, we recommend Northwest Registered Agent, LLC for business startups because of their quick sign up form and quick service.
