What Form 08-414 asks for

• A principal office address

Corporation into Alaska, by home state

Every home state pays the same $549 at checkout for Alaska.

Alaska registered agent rule

Alaska requires every registered foreign corporation to keep a registered agent there (AS 10.06.753). Switching agents later costs $25 on Form 08-409. Our $199 includes the first year of Alaska registered agent service, then $149 a year.

Alaska yearly filings

Once registered, your corporation files the Alaska Biennial Report every two years, at $200, due January 2 of the filing year. The Alaska filing window opens October 2 of the preceding year and closes January 2 of the filing year. Filing it late adds $47.50.

How long Alaska takes

We file Form 08-414 with the Alaska Division of Corporations. Alaska online processing: online filings post as soon as they are paid.

Leaving Alaska later

If your corporation stops doing business there, it ends the registration by filing Form 08-502. Until that is filed, Alaska's yearly filing stays due.
