Online UCC Filing and Portfolio
Management made eZ!
UCC eZFILE ® Features
Validation and Filing Review
UCC eZFILE ® is programmed to know state-specific
filing rules and electronically validates filings to ensure
all jurisdictional requirements are met prior to state
submission. But that’s not all; every filing is also
reviewed by an in-house UCC expert to check for typos,
naming errors and other costly filing mistakes.
Continuation Alerts and Management
Every filing submitted through UCC eZFILE® is
electronically tracked for its lapse date*. As filings
approach their lapse date, users receive emailed
Continuation Alerts to remind them to take action. Or,
outsource the entire continuation process to CLAS by
enrolling in our Automatic Continuation program.
With the CLAS UCC eZFILE® UCC filing
and portfolio management system,
you can prepare UCC Financing
Statements and Amendments online and
submit them electronically in 47 state
jurisdictions nationwide.
Why file electronically? Filing UCCs
electronically improves turn-around
time for acknowledgements, prevents
indexing errors and reduces UCC
filing costs.
If you prefer to have your UCCs filed
over the counter, UCC eZFILE® can still
help! Use the system to prepare and
track your UCC filings; CLAS will work
with our vast network of local filing
agents to deliver your documents to the
filing office – the choice is yours!
A system that is so intuitive and easy to
use, there was only one name we could
give it, UCC eZFILE®.
Streamlined Document Preparation
Personalized filing templates and saved books of
debtor, secured party and collateral information help
reduce repetitive typing and expedite UCC preparation.
Global amendments enable users to prepare UCC3s for
multiple UCC1 Financing Statements simultaneously.
Customized Reports
UCC eZFILE ® users can create and export customized
reports of filing information including address and
collateral book report, complete UCC filing detail
reports and on-demand continuation reports to reflect
filings set to lapse up to one year in advance.
Project Organization
With UCC eZFILE ® , multi-jurisdictional filing projects
are a breeze. Filings can be combined as a project
and managed as a group. Users create a master
project filing, and then edit only jurisdiction-specific
information, saving time and reducing risk of errors.
UCC and Corporate Monitoring
Through UCC eZFILE ® , users can sign up for our
automated Debtor Monitoring program and receive
timely notification of any new UCC or Corporate activity
that could signal a credit risk and jeopardize their
ability to collect.
