From Idaho to Mississippi, step by step

We prepare and file Form F0002
It names us as your Mississippi registered agent, with your Idaho name and formation date. If Mississippi wants the Idaho certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your Idaho corporation is registered with Mississippi.

Will your Idaho name work for Mississippi?

We search Mississippi's records for Idaho's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Mississippi agent and the Idaho one

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

Staying in good standing in Idaho and Mississippi

Each year your corporation files Idaho's Annual Report (no fee) and Mississippi's Annual Report ($25). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Idaho plus Mississippi comes to $174 a year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.
