This blog article guides you to understand the triggers that may deem you to be “Doing Business” in California, or the need to register with the Secretary of State which is possible even if your business is not based there! If so deemed, your business is retrospectively liable to legal implications such as taxes (including retrospective civil penalties), as well as potentially required to make climate-related “greenwashing” disclosures & comply with privacy obligations. We recommend you review this blog article and seek legal advice if you are in doubt.
