You can get a certificate of good standing from the business filing agency in your state. In many cases, this is your Secretary of State office (or one of its subdivisions). However in some cases, you'll need to find the equivalent agency that's responsible for filing entities and maintaining state records.

As its name implies, a certificate of good standing is a type of business document that shows that you're up to date on all important business marks ? for example, that your business is registered with the state, authorized to perform business, and is current with its fees and filings.

As an existing entity, you may, in the course of normal business, need to change or update your directors, officers, members, business name, business purpose, business address, fiscal year end, termination date, or other important information. This can be done through the amendment process.

If you are seeking to do business in Vermont as a business or nonprofit entity, regardless of the goods or services provided, you must register your business or nonprofit entity with the Secretary of State first.
