The Undersigned Entity Submits The Following Statement For The Purpose Of Changing Its Registered Form
Use a The Undersigned Entity Submits The Following Statement For The Purpose Of Changing Its Registered template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What this entity statement does
This statement documents an entity’s request to change its registered form; it does not, by itself, complete every state filing requirement. The authorized representative should enter the entity’s exact legal name, current registration information, proposed registered form, and any required effective date or supporting details. In signNow, the sender uploads the statement, reviews detected fields, adds signature and date fields, sends it to the authorized signer, and preserves the completed PDF with its audit trail. ESIGN and UETA generally recognize qualifying electronic signatures, while state filing rules remain controlling.
Who uses this entity statement?
Entity representatives
An entity owner, officer, or authorized representative can use the statement to document a requested change to the entity’s registered form. Before signing, the representative should verify the entity’s legal name, identification details, current registration, proposed form, and destination filing instructions.
Legal and compliance teams
Attorneys, formation services, and compliance teams can prepare the statement for review and signature, then preserve the executed copy and audit trail. Their workflow should distinguish signNow execution from the separate state filing, approval, fee, or notarization process.

signNow supports ESIGN and UETA-compliant electronic signatures. Confirm that the receiving state office accepts electronic execution, because state filing rules and document-specific requirements can differ.
Use signNow’s SMS authentication or stronger signer-authentication options when the recipient’s identity requires additional verification. Record the signer’s email, authentication event, and completion certificate.
A completed document includes an audit trail recording signing activity, timestamps, and related events. Export the signed statement and audit trail together so reviewers can connect the evidence.
If the form changes an entity’s legal registration, electronic signing does not replace required Secretary of State filing, notarization, attachments, or fees. Confirm the destination authority’s instructions before submission.
