DOMESTIC NONPROFIT INSTRUCTION SHEET
We hope the following information will be helpful when you organize a Nonprofit Corporation under Chapter
355 RSMo. DO NOT confuse this type of corporation with the Pro Forma Corporation or Benevolent
Associations formed through the Circuit Courts under Chapter 352, RSMo.
• The purposes for which a Nonprofit corporation may be organized are in section 355.025 RSMo.
• Each corporation may have a president and/or chairman, secretary and treasurer. The same individual
may simultaneously hold more than one office. At least three directors are required.
• All Nonprofit corporations must file an annual report each year listing their officers and directors. This
report is due by August 31st. The corporation will not remain in good standing if the report is not filed.
• These forms must be submitted, with original signatures.
The following instructions are for use with our forms. If the requirements of the law are not met, or if any
blanks are not completed, it may be necessary for us to return the forms for correction.
Article 1: The name of the corporation must be distinguishable upon the records of the Secretary of State
from any other domestic/foreign corporation, domestic/foreign limited partnership, limited liability
partnership, limited liability limited partnership, name reservation or domestic/foreign limited lia-
bility company registered to do business in the state of Missouri.
Article 2: Indicate whether the corporation is a public or mutual benefit corporation, pursuant to Section
355.881, RSMo. This designation can be determined as follows:
A. Any corporation which is designated (public benefit or mutual benefit) by statute is that type of
corporation.
B. Any corporation organized primarily or exclusively for religious purposes is a public benefit
corporation, unless a statute designates otherwise.
C. Any corporation which does not come within A or B above, but which is recognized as exempt
under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code is a public benefit corporation.
D. Any corporation which does not come within A, B or C above, but which is organized for pub-
lic or charitable purposes which upon dissolution must distribute its assets to:
(1) A public benefit corporation, or
(2) The United States, or
(3) A state, or
(4) A person that is exempt under 501(c)(3),
is a public benefit corporation.
E. If the corporation does not come under sections A,B,C, or D above, is a mutual benefit corpo-
ration.
Ltr. 5 (01/2012)
Article 3: The duration or life of the corporation will be perpetual, unless otherwise stated.
Article 4: Each corporation must appoint and maintain a registered agent and address in Missouri. The regis-
tered address must include a physical address such as a street, route or highway number. A post
office box alone is not acceptable.

older.
Article 6: Indicate whether or not the corporation will have members.
Article 7: The corporation must provide for the distribution of its assets upon dissolution according to sec-
tions 355.661 through 355.746.
