You can start an LLC in New Jersey by paying a $125 fee and filing the state’s tax registration form, which you can do yourself or hire an LLC service for.

In New Jersey, your LLC must have a registered agent. This person or company is responsible for accepting important forms, such as state paperwork or legal documents, on behalf of your business.

If you're not ready to form your LLC right away, the New Jersey Department of Treasury's business portal allows you to reserve the name for six months for $50.
