Application for Certification and Registration of a Professional Corporation with the NC Medical Board
It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the NC Laws (Medical Practice Act and Professional Corporation Act) and Rules (Corporations) prior to starting the formation of a professional corporation. For your convenience we also provide a “Guide for Professional Corporations and Professional Limited Liabilities Companies” and Frequently Asked Questions

Additional information and forms concerning professional corporations are available on the Secretary of State’s website, or you may call (919) 807-2225 | toll-free at (888) 246-7636.

Application Instructions:

• A list of required documents to gather, complete and mail to NCMB is outlined in our Online Application.
• Complete the online portion of the application, available at right, pay the $50.00 application fee by MasterCard or Visa.
• Mail application packet to NCMB, attention Corporations

Once documents are reviewed at the Board and it has been determined that all statutory requirements are met, (see the Process Tab) the NCMB will return the original Articles to you along with a Board issued Certificate (NCMB PC-02) and Registration Certificate (NCMB PC-03).

Creation Filing with the NC Secretary of State (“SOS”) requires the original Articles with Board’s seal imprint, the Board issued Certificate and the required SOS fee. Filing with the SOS must be completed within four months of the NCMB Certificate issued date.

The NCMB verifies with the NC SOS that your business has submitted a Creation Filing within four months of certification.

Unfiled Certificates expire after four months. If certification expires, reapplication will be required before filing with the SOS.
