Why Start a New Jersey LLC?
The state offers a wide range of business assistance programs and tax credits to LLCs and other business entities that meet certain requirements. For example, the Business Retention and Relocation Assistance Act offers tax credits to businesses that create and preserve New Jersey jobs that are in danger of being sent out of state.
For most people who want to start a business, creating a New Jersey limited liability company (LLC) is the easiest, fastest way. An ideal business entity for startups and small- to medium-sized businesses, an LLC grants you the advantages and protections of larger corporations but with much simpler rules and regulations.

This guide will cover the basics of NJ LLC formation. It covers naming your business, getting a Registered Agent, the fees and requirements you’ll need to pay and meet, NJ state tax details and much more. We’ll also go over what you need to file your LLC and how you'll work with the New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, often simply referred to as the NJ Division of Revenue or DORES.
Note: In most states, business creation and management is administered by the Secretary of State. However, NJ business services are handled by DORES, which falls under the NJ Department of Treasury, but the NJ Secretary of State does provide some resources and support through its Business Action Center.
