Application process
There is no charitable solicitation registration to file in Utah. Utah eliminated its charitable organization registration requirement effective 2024; rules for professional fundraisers and certain commercial co-ventures remain with the Division of Consumer Protection. Nonprofits soliciting in Utah still need their corporate registration (and a registered agent if formed out of state), and fundraising into other states can trigger those states' registration requirements. Professional fundraisers working Utah donors should confirm whether separate contractor or solicitor filings apply.
Renewal requirements
With no charitable solicitation registration, there is nothing to renew in Utah. Keep the organization's corporate annual report and registered agent current, and track registrations in every other state where the nonprofit solicits.
