Nebraska Corporate Statutes concerning incorporation of a business Note: the Nebraska Secretary of State's office does NOT have a set form for the articles of incorporation as found in most states. Also note: Nebraska is one of the few states that requires new corporation to publish notice after incorporation (please see Nebraska Statute Section 21-20,189 reprinted below).
