If you are just getting started with your states registration process or are already registered in multiple locations, the information provided below can serve you as a guide to budget your fees and anticipate when your registrations will be due. As you can infer, the registration process for charitable organizations is not straight forward and can be extremely time consuming, especially if you are not familiar with each state statute. So why not trust us to take that burden on for you so you can spend your time on your cause’s valuable mission.
The states of Arizona, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, Vermont and Wyoming do not currently have any registrations requirements for charitable organizations that are seeking donations.
