Why Start a Pennsylvania LLC?
The state offers a wide variety of business incentives and tax credits to help business owners start and grow their businesses. For example, the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program is available to certain businesses that contribute to educational improvement organizations and scholarship organizations (including pre-kindergarten) to offer educational opportunities to Pennsylvania students.
For most aspiring business owners, the fastest and easiest way to start a business in Pennsylvania is by creating an LLC. A limited liability company (LLC) is a type of business entity that’s ideal for startups and small- to medium-sized businesses. You get the advantages and protections of larger Pennsylvania corporations but with much simpler rules and regulations.
