Georgia Corporation Foreign Registration in Alaska

Alaska registers a corporation from Georgia as a foreign corporation on Form 08-414, with $350 in state fees. Alaska may ask for Georgia's Certificate of Existence ($10).

From Georgia to Alaska, step by step

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

Will your Georgia name work for Alaska?

We search Alaska's records for Georgia's name on file before anything is filed.

Agents: Alaska and Georgia

Georgia and Alaska both call it a registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Georgia; ours takes Alaska's papers and notices.

Yearly filings: Alaska and Georgia

Georgia wants the Annual Registration every year ($60); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Georgia to Alaska

An LLC formed in Georgia files Form 08-0497 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Existence ($10)). After that come Georgia's Annual Registration ($60) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the LLC filing.

Questions Georgia owners ask about Alaska

Does my Georgia company need to register in Alaska?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

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

How much does it cost to register a Georgia corporation in Alaska?

$549 at checkout; Alaska may also want Georgia's Certificate of Existence, at extra cost.

How long does the Alaska registration take?

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

What are the yearly costs for Georgia and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Georgia's report ($60) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Georgia registered agent stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.

Can I form a new Alaska corporation instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

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