Paper guide
Sunbiz corporate document
Florida business documents used at a bank abroad have to be recent official certificates from Florida’s business-filing office — not a screenshot of a search result.
What this document is
Articles, certificates of status, and good-standing documents for Florida companies. Banks in Panama, Brazil, and Chile ask for them with a Florida stamp.
It has to be recent and official
A printout of a search page is not enough. Order a current certificate from Florida’s business-filing office. Ask the bank how recent it must be — 30 days and 90 days are both common.
How we file it
Photo, order, ship, we file in Tallahassee. Standard is $125 plus the Florida state fee ($10, or $20 if a county clerk certified the document). Rush is $199 plus state fees. Mailing it to the state yourself can take months, and a reject means you start over.
