Articles of Organization

The document filed with a state to create an LLC; Delaware and some other states call it a Certificate of Formation.

The short answer, then the detailChecked September 2026

The detail

What it means in practice.

The articles name the company, its registered agent and the person filing them. In Wyoming and Delaware they don't name the members or managers, which is why owners there aren't on the public record. Once the state approves the articles, the company exists, and the stamped copy is the first document in your documents.
