Everything a new New York corporation needs in one book
After your certificate of incorporation is filed with the New York Department of State, the next step is organizing the corporation: adopting bylaws, electing directors and officers and issuing shares. A corporate kit gives you one place to record each of those steps, and the tools to do it properly: a seal and printed certificates. Mark's Corpex builds that kit to order with your New York corporation's exact name.
What's in the kit
Each complete kit includes a binder with your corporation's name on the spine, a custom embossing seal with name, state and year, a set of custom printed stock certificates with stubs, and starter minutes and bylaws. The Standard Kit has a turned-edge binder detailed in gold with the company name gold-embossed on the spine, a matching slipcase, pre-printed forms, custom certificates and an embossing seal. You can add tab dividers, extra minute paper or fully customized minutes and bylaws from the product catalog.
Standard vs Econoline for New York buyers
The Standard Kit uses a durable turned-edge binder suited to a book that will sit on a shelf for decades. The Econoline Kit uses a vinyl binder with two clear inside pockets and keeps the same essentials (forms, custom certificates and seal) at a lower price point. Both are printed to order. Compare them on the live product pages; prices are shown there.
Corporations and not-for-profits
Business corporations should choose the corporation option so certificates show shares and par value. A not-for-profit generally issues no stock, so choose the nonprofit option for the right forms. LLC buyers should use the New York LLC kit page instead.
Customization fields
When ordering you'll enter the legal name exactly as filed, the state (New York) and year of incorporation for the seal, and the number of authorized shares and par value for the certificates. Double-check spelling, punctuation and suffixes such as Inc. or Corp.; they are printed exactly as entered.
How to order
1. Open the Standard or Econoline product on markscorpex.com. 2. Select corporation or nonprofit as offered. 3. Enter your customization details. 4. Add optional extras (extra certificates, customized minutes, seal stamp). 5. Check out. Your kit is produced to order and shipped to you. Call 800-221-8181 if you need help matching products to your filing.
After the kit arrives
Use the binder for your filed certificate of incorporation, adopted bylaws, minutes of organizational meetings and the share ledger. Issue certificates from the printed set as shares are actually issued, complete each stub, and store cancelled certificates in the book rather than discarding them. Replace the embosser only if it is worn; the live embossing seal product matches the kit style.
When to order certificates alone
If the corporation already has a binder and seal, order Corpex Printed Standard Certificates or Dwight Jackson certificates from the certificates collection instead of another complete kit. Blank certificates remain available when your firm prefers to complete fields in-house. Pricing and option selectors stay on the live product pages.
