PLLCs/Corporations Renewal
Requirements
IMPORTANT: NCMB now provides two different pathways for individuals who wish to renew a NC-based Professional Corporation or Professional Limited Liability Company.
If you are a licensee (physician or PA) of the North Carolina Medical Board, please click on the Licensee Portal button at right.
If you are a non-licensee, please use the Non-licensee Portal button at right.
If this is your first time logging in to NCMB’s new system, you will be prompted to register. This is a one time requirement.
All NCMB professional businesses are required to renew their registration annually. The registration expiration date is found on the registration certificate. A renewal notification is sent to the email or business address on file with the NCMB annually, during the fourth quarter. Failure to renew your registration is cause for suspension under State Statute NCGS 55B-13. If suspended by the NCMB, a business may no longer provide professional services to the public.
All NCMB registered PCs & PLLC renewals must be completed online. Paper renewals are not accepted. Be prepared to update and verify for accuracy the following:
- Mailing address, phone numbers and email address for PC or PLLC
- Current Registered Agent listed with NCMB and the Secretary of State is correct.
- Current approved shareholders or members of the PC/PLLC
- While completing the online renewal, you will be given an opportunity to request approval of a newly added shareholder/member
Shareholders and members of the PC or PLLC are to have NCMB approval on file as an incorporating shareholder, organizing member or approved additional shareholder/member. (See the Handbook for Managing Professional Corporations, Professional Associations and Professional Limited Liability Companies concerning shareholders or members for in depth explanation)
