New Corp vs. Shelf

bulletIf you can wait, there is little or no reason to buy a shelf corporation.

A shelf corporation does have the advantage or benefit that it's already formed and will have a Federal EIN so purchasing one and starting business operations is nearly immediate. If you can wait just a few days, starting a new corporation is much less expensive.

bulletWhy do some people want to buy a shelf corporation?

Some people can't wait (or do not want to wait) even a few days. For example, someone may be buying a business and can't wait for a new corporation to be formed. Another example would be someone that needs to hire employees right away with the corporation as the employer and can't wait for a new corporation to be formed.

bulletDoes a shelf or aged corporation come with a credit card or credit history?

No, not ours.

We know that others may advertise that their shelf or aged corporations come with a Dunn and Bradstreet (D&B) number, credit card, credit history, etc. When you buy a shelf corporation from us, you and your corporation will have to earn, the old fashioned way, any credit rating. Our shelf corporations have had no business operations, no revenue, no expenses, no bank account, no shareholders, and no business activity whatsoever. They are formed by us and kept "on the shelf" by us for later purchase.
