Illinois Corporate Officer Rules

Illinois statutes require a Illinois corporation to have at least one corporate officer. However, there are normally three (3) principal officers in a corporation; a President, a Secretary and a Treasurer.

Illinois Law permits one person to hold more than one office. Therefore, one person may be designated to all three offices.

The documents contained in your E-Book appoint all three of the above officers. You may appoint yourself to each of these offices, or each of these offices may be held by different persons.

If you would like to view the Illinois Statutes concerning corporate officers, they are located in Sections _____________ and thereafter in the Illinois Statutes.

Our Corporate Kit E-Book and our Small Business E-Book give you resources for electing officers and re-electing officers on an annual basis.
