New One Stop Business Portal Aims to Streamline Business Formation in West Virginia

People looking to form a new West Virginia business, or to
register an existing foreign (out-of-state) business in West
Virginia, are encouraged to take advantage of the new online One
Stop Business Portal recently unveiled by the West Virginia
Secretary of State’s Office at https://business4wv.com.
The new portal provides invaluable step by step information,
checklists, forms, and other resources and guidance to assist users
with planning, starting, operating, and expanding their business in
West Virginia. Additionally, the new portal features direct access
to the online business services filing system (previously
business4wv.com), one-click access to helpful business startup
information and resources, and important business filing deadlines
directly from the home page.
“The new portal was designed to emulate our brick and mortar One
Stop Business Center, a first of its kind anywhere in the nation,
in an internet-based, web format,” said Penney Barker, Business and
Licensing Director. “Our goal with the new One Stop Business Portal
was to gather all of the information spread out across numerous
state agency websites and place it into one central location for
new and existing business owners so that they can quickly and
easily complete their filing requirements and spend more of their
valuable time running their business instead of bogged down looking
for information or doing paperwork.”
“The new mobile-friendly portal replaces a nearly 15-year-old
service that did not work well with modern devices. Additionally,
the old service was cumbersome to maintain and keep up-to-date with
the latest information and the new portal solution completely
eliminates these hindrances,” Barker said.
The new West Virginia One Stop Business Portal is the result of
a multi-agency collaboration between the West Virginia Secretary of
State’s Office, WorkForce West Virginia, the West Virginia State
Tax Department, and the West Virginia Division of Labor. For more

online business filing system, visit https://business4wv.com.
According to West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner, the
new West Virginia One Stop Business Center is a legislative
initiative developed at no cost to West Virginia taxpayers. The One
Stop Business Portal was created by the Secretary of State’s Office
in partnership with WV.gov.
