LLC publication in Sullivan County

What §206 requires of a Sullivan County LLC

Every newly formed New York LLC must publish a Notice of Formation once a week for six successive weeks, in two newspapers designated by the county clerk (one daily, one weekly) and then file a Certificate of Publication with the Department of State, along with a $50 filing fee, within 120 days of formation.

You don't get to shop for cheaper papers. The clerk's designation is the designation, so the price of compliance is simply whatever those two papers charge. The Sullivan County Clerk in Monticello designates its two papers. LLC Publishers lists Sullivan at $445, a little above the $425 it lists for most upstate counties.

That applies to every LLC whose office on file with the state is in Sullivan County, from Monticello, Liberty, Fallsburg and Bethel to anywhere else in the county, whatever its mailing address.

Miss the 120 days and your LLC's authority to do business in New York is suspended. It isn't dissolved and your contracts stay valid. The law protects its right to defend itself in court; the right to start a lawsuit is not on that list. Publishing late lifts the suspension completely, with no penalty fee. More on the deadline.

The legal route to a lower price

Section 206 keys the publication requirement to the county where your LLC's office is currently designated on file with the Department of State, not to where you personally sit, and not permanently to the county you first formed in. New York expressly allows an LLC to update that designated county, and the state provides the form for doing it.

Once your LLC is designated to a lower-cost county, that county's newspapers are the correct papers to publish in, at its far lower legal-notice rates. It is a recognized, above-board route that established filing services have used for years.

And because publication is one-time and permanent, the end state is identical: your Sullivan County LLC finishes fully and permanently compliant with §206, having paid lower-cost county rates instead of Sullivan County rates.
