Understanding Entity Endings

Depending on your company type, your legal entity name will vary with the entity ending or ‘suffix’ (e.g., ‘INC.’, ‘CORP.’, ‘CO.’). You have the flexibility to choose the relevant ending for your company, as long as it complies with your company type and legal requirements. It’s important to note that the U.S. legal system restricts certain words in entity naming, such as ‘bank’, or terms associated with religion or illegality. Additionally, decide whether to include a period after your entity name suffix. While using a period, like ‘Inc.’ versus ‘Inc’, is mostly a matter of consistency, it must remain consistent once chosen.
