STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO NEW JERSEY CORPORATION AMENDMENTS<br />

How to amend New Jersey Certificate of Incorporation:<br />

Filing corporate amendments in New Jersey is complicated by the fact that you can<br />

submit several different forms to make changes to your New Jersey corporation. <strong>The</strong><br />

division provides three different amendment forms for domestic corporations. You are<br />

not required to use the New Jersey Division of Revenue forms to amend your<br />

certificate of incorporation. You may draft your own amendment. However, the division<br />

recommends using their forms because if the filing does not include all the required<br />

information, it will be rejected.<br />

• C-102, Certificate of Amendment by Incorporator(s) is for profit and nonprofit<br />

corporations that have not yet held an organizational meeting of the first board of<br />

directors or trustees.<br />

corporations. C-102B, Certificate of Amendment by Members or Trustees is for<br />

nonprofit corporations.<br />

Registration Packet. <strong>The</strong>se forms are also available on the Division of Revenue<br />
