Effective May 1, 2007 the Secretary of State’s Office will reject any Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) statement, Effective Financing Statement (EFS), or other lien document that is not submitted on the most current form provided by the Secretary of State’s Office.

The current forms are available on the Business Center home page by selecting the “UCC and EFS forms” link under the UCC Information heading.

Most UCC and EFS filings can be submitted online at a reduced fee. Filing online also avoids the possibility of having a document rejected. To file online, select the “E-file a UCC or EFS Record” link under the UCC Information heading.
