A Certificate of Status is issued by the Florida Department of State to show that your company is active and has paid the initial filing fees or annual report after the first year. Some banks and governmental agencies require this certificate as verification that the company is an active Florida company. If you choose this certificate as part of your package, it is issued electronically by the Florida Department of State and will be emailed to you with your articles.
