How Missouri companies register with Idaho

We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Idaho registered agent, with your Missouri name and formation date. If Idaho wants the Missouri certificate, it is ordered first. Once Idaho approves it, the Missouri company can do business there.

Will your Missouri name work for Idaho?

If another Idaho company uses the Missouri name, an alternate name is allowed. We search Idaho's records for Missouri's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Idaho agent and the Missouri one

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

Staying in good standing in Missouri and Idaho

Common questions: Missouri to Idaho

Does my Missouri company need to register in Idaho?

Yes, once a Missouri business operates there; Idaho registers it as a foreign corporation.

Is this a certificate of authority?

Idaho calls it registration for Missouri corporations; other states say certificate of authority.

How much does it cost to register a Missouri corporation in Idaho?

$302.50 at checkout; Idaho may also want Missouri's Certificate of Good Standing, at extra cost.

How long does the Idaho registration take?

Idaho's standard processing takes about 3 to 5 days from the date of filing, plus time for Missouri's certificate if Idaho asks for it. Paid expedite: $40.

What are the yearly costs for Missouri and Idaho?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Missouri's report ($15, every two years) and Idaho's report (no fee).

Does Idaho require a registered agent?

Yes: the Missouri registered agent stays, and ours covers Idaho for year one, with a street address there.

Will Idaho accept my Missouri name?

Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Missouri name at home.

Can I form a new Idaho corporation instead?

Yes, but Missouri keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Idaho's Annual Report (no fee), and the original keeps Missouri's Corporate Registration Report.

How do I withdraw from Idaho later?

Missouri companies leave by filing a Withdrawal of Foreign Registration Statement; until then, Idaho's report stays due alongside Missouri's filings.
