About this bizfile guide

The job of these pages

California Entity Search is a private notebook for the public bizfile record: how to search, how to read FTB suspended next to an SOS status, and when a Statement of Information is actually due. The record itself is the Secretary of State’s.

The request form is for people who want that public page read and described by email. It does not create an entity, file a statement, or talk to the Franchise Tax Board on your behalf.
