Oregon registers a corporation from Arizona as a foreign corporation on Form 50, with $275 in state fees. Oregon may ask for Arizona's Certificate of Good Standing ($10).

From Arizona to Oregon, step by step

We prepare and file Form 50
It names us as your Oregon registered agent, with your Arizona name and formation date. If Oregon wants the Arizona certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your Arizona corporation is registered with Oregon.

Will your Arizona name work for Oregon?

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

Your Oregon agent and the Arizona one

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

$469 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $45 to Arizona and $275 to Oregon for the yearly reports.

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Oregon corporation instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

Arizona companies leave by filing a Foreign Corporation Amendment/Withdrawal; until then, Oregon's report stays due alongside Arizona's filings.
