Arizona Corporation Foreign Registration in Alaska

Alaska registers a corporation from Arizona as a foreign corporation on Form 08-414, with $350 in state fees. Alaska may ask for Arizona's Certificate of Good Standing ($10). We file it with the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing from your Arizona records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

How Arizona companies register with Alaska

We prepare and file Form 08-414
It names us as your Alaska registered agent, with your Arizona name and formation date. If Alaska wants the Arizona certificate, it is ordered first. Once Alaska approves it, the Arizona company can do business there.

Will your Arizona name work for Alaska?

We check your exact Arizona name against Alaska's records before filing.

Your Alaska agent and the Arizona one

Alaska calls it a registered agent; Arizona says statutory agent. Your current statutory agent stays for Arizona; ours takes Alaska's papers and notices.

Yearly filings: Alaska and Arizona

Arizona wants the Annual Report and Certificate of Disclosure every year ($45); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Arizona to Alaska

An LLC formed in Arizona files Form 08-0497 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($10)). See the LLC filing.

The other way: Alaska into Arizona

A corporation formed in Alaska that registers with Arizona files Form C018 with $178.85 in state fees and a $35 required expedite. See that filing.

Common questions: Arizona to Alaska

Does my Arizona company need to register in Alaska?

Yes, once an Arizona business operates there; Alaska registers it as a foreign corporation.

Is this a certificate of authority?

Yes: Alaska issues one to Arizona corporations once the form is approved.

How much does the Alaska registration cost?

$549 at checkout; Alaska may also want Arizona's Certificate of Good Standing, at extra cost.

How long does the Alaska registration take?

Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid, plus time for Arizona's certificate if Alaska asks for it.

What are the yearly costs for Arizona and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Arizona's report ($45) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Arizona statutory agent stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.

Can I form a new Alaska corporation instead?

Yes, but Arizona keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Alaska's Biennial Report ($100), and the original keeps Arizona's yearly report.

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

Arizona companies leave by filing Form 08-502; until then, Alaska's report stays due alongside Arizona's filings.
