The Differences Between a C Corp & an S Corp. An S corporation is a distinctive type of corporate entity that provides special tax advantages to owners of the business. A C corporation, also referred to as a regular corporation, is automatically formed when a business decides to incorporate. S corporations must file paperwork with the Internal Revenue Service, which is not a requirement for C corporations.
C Corporations. Many refer to C corporations simply as corporations. A C corporation pays taxes under Chapter C of the IRS tax code, which is where the name comes from. That means the corporation itself is a legal entity that is liable for its own debts and pays its own taxes.
