From Indiana to Alaska, step by step

We prepare and file Form 08-414
It lists us as your Alaska registered agent, next to your Indiana name and formation date. If Alaska wants the Indiana certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your Indiana corporation is registered with Alaska.

Will your Indiana name work for Alaska?

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

Your Alaska agent and the Indiana one

Indiana and Alaska both call it a registered agent. Alaska papers come to us; Indiana's agent is unchanged.

Common questions: Indiana to Alaska

Does my Indiana company need to register in Alaska?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

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

How much does it cost to register an Indiana corporation in Alaska?

$549 at checkout; Alaska may also want Indiana'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 Indiana's certificate if Alaska asks for it.

What are the yearly costs for Indiana and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Indiana's report ($32, every two years) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Alaska corporation instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

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