INCORPORATED Meaning and Definition

  1. Incorporated is an adjective that describes the process or state of being formed into a legal corporation, a distinct entity recognized by law. The term is commonly used in business and legal contexts. When a company is incorporated, it undergoes a formal registration process with the appropriate governmental authority, creating a legal entity separate from its owners, shareholders, or members.

    This registration typically requires filing a set of documents, including articles of incorporation, with the relevant government agency. By incorporating, a business gains certain benefits, such as limited liability protection, perpetual existence, and the ability to issue stock to raise capital.

    An incorporated entity is commonly indicated by the term "Inc." or "Incorporated" following its name. This designation signals that the business follows specific regulations and guidelines set forth by the jurisdiction in which it is registered. These regulations may vary by country or state but generally include requirements for annual filings, fees, and adherence to certain corporate governance procedures.

    Being incorporated also implies that the company was created as a separate legal entity apart from its owners or founders. As a result, it can enter into contracts, own assets, and assume legal responsibilities in its own name. This separation of legal identity protects the individuals associated with the corporation from personal liability for the company's debts or legal obligations.

  2. Associated; united in a legal body.
