Instructions For Completing Form SI-200
For faster processing, the required statement for most corporations can be filed online at https://businessfilings.sos.ca.gov.
Every domestic stock and agricultural cooperative corporation must file a Statement of Information with the California Secretary of State, within
90 days after the filing of its initial Articles of Incorporation, and annually thereafter during the applicable filing period. The applicable filing period for
a domestic corporation is the calendar month during which the initial Articles of Incorporation were filed and the immediately preceding five calendar
months. A corporation is required to file this statement even though it may not be actively engaged in business at the time this statement is due.
Changes to information contained in a previously filed statement can be made by filing a new form, completed in its entirety.
Legal Authority: Statutory filing provisions are found in California Corporations Code section 1502 or California Food and Agricultural Code section
54040, unless otherwise indicated. All subsequent statutory references are to the California Corporations Code, unless otherwise stated. Failure to
file this Statement of Information by the due date will result in the assessment of a $250.00 penalty. (Section 2204; California Revenue and Taxation
Code section 19141.)
Fees: The Statement of Information must be accompanied by a $20.00 filing fee and $5.00 disclosure fee. The filing fee and the disclosure fee may
be included in a single check made payable to the Secretary of State. All domestic stock and agricultural cooperative corporations must pay a
total of $25.00 at the time of filing the statement. If this statement is being filed to amend any information on a previously filed statement and is
being filed outside the applicable filing period, as defined above, no fee is required.
Copies: To get a copy of the filed statement, include a separate request and payment for copy fees when the statement is submitted. Copy fees
are $1.00 for the first page and $.50 for each additional page. For certified copies, there is an additional $5.00 certification fee, per copy.
Publicly Traded Corporations: Every publicly traded corporation also must file a Corporate Disclosure Statement (Form SI-PT) annually, within
150 days after the end of its fiscal year. A “publicly traded corporation” is a corporation, as defined in Section 162, that is an issuer as defined in
Section 3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (United States Code, Title 15, section 78c), and has at least one class of securities
listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, on the OTC-Bulletin Board, or on the electronic service operated by Pink OTC
