.INC, Inc.: a little reminder about Incorporation

 

When a company achieves a high turnover, it is interesting to make a change in its legal status by becoming a “join stock company” or a “corporation”.

When working on the change of legal status, one of the first objectives is to establish the company as a legal entity.

 

What does that mean? The purpose is to create an entity that would be separated from the owners or the direction. Therefore, the company is considered as a legal person. To this end, it is possible to sign contract on its own behalf, to properly owns goods, to start legal proceedings…

The constitution process of a legal entity is what is called “incorporation“.

 

 

What are the similarities between Inc. and another legal status? 

 

It is very important to understand that “Inc.” means “incorporated”. This refers to the incorporation process: the constitution process of a legal entity as described before. To this extent, it does not define a legal status it describes the process leading to legal status. Incorporation is, actually, a mandatory process when a company is becoming a corporation.

What is, then, the difference between Inc. and Corp.? 

Well, there isn’t really, using one or the other depends on companies’ policies, or sometimes on state’s legislation. Some states will promote the use of Corp. instead of Inc., or will ask for the legal mention to be in the official wording…

In fact, if we are looking for similarities, Inc. would be a great indicator of where the company has been incorporated, so under which legislation it falls.

The Corporation is a truly legal status with its own rules when it comes to shareholders, the company’s capital …
