Filing a
CL-4 automatically registers you with the SCDOR. If this is your first return filed, check the Initial Return box on the front of the
CL-4. Once your Corporate Income Tax account is registered with the SCDOR, we will send you a Corporate Registration Filing Requirements letter (SC1070). This letter includes important information about your Electric Cooperative filing requirements. To avoid processing delays, be sure to include your FEIN on all returns, payments, and correspondence sent to the SCDOR.
The SCDOR has no role in requiring a Certificate of Authority with the South Carolina Secretary of State’s Office (SCSOS) to do business in South Carolina. Questions about who is required to have a Certificate of Authority should be directed to the
SCSOS.
The requirements for a Certificate of Authority are in
Chapter 15 Title 33 of the South Carolina Code of Laws.
