Is an out-of-state corporation required to file with the Arkansas Secretary of State?
Sometimes. A corporation incorporated in another state, a “foreign” corporation under Arkansas law, should review the provisions of A.C.A. 4-27-1501 (profit) or A.C.A. 4-33-1501 (nonprofit). You will notice that these laws indicate a “A foreign corporation may not transact business in this state until it obtains a certificate of authority from the Secretary of State”.
