Missouri Corporation Foreign Registration in Nevada

Nevada registers a corporation from Missouri as a foreign corporation on an online registration (no form number), with $425 in state fees. Nevada may ask for Missouri's Certificate of Good Standing ($10). We file it with the Secretary of State, Commercial Recordings Division from your Missouri records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

From Missouri to Nevada, step by step

We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Nevada registered agent, next to your Missouri name and formation date. If Nevada wants the Missouri certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your Missouri corporation is registered with Nevada.

Will your Missouri name work for Nevada?

Nevada can hold a name for $25 before you file.

Your Nevada agent and the Missouri one

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

Yearly filings: Nevada and Missouri

Missouri wants the Corporate Registration Report every two years ($15); Nevada wants the Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent every year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Missouri to Nevada

An LLC formed in Missouri files its own registration with Nevada ($425 in state fees, the same; no home-state certificate is needed). See the LLC filing.

The other way: Nevada into Missouri

A corporation formed in Nevada that registers with Missouri files Form Corp 42 with $155 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Existence ($50) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Missouri owners ask about Nevada

Does my Missouri company need to register in Nevada?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

Nevada calls it qualification for Missouri corporations; other states say certificate of authority.

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

$624 at checkout; Nevada may also want Missouri's Certificate of Good Standing, at extra cost.

How long does the Nevada registration take?

Nevada says most online filings are processed the same day at no extra charge, plus time for Missouri's certificate if Nevada asks for it. Paid expedite: 2-hour $500, 1-hour $1,000.

What are the yearly costs for Missouri and Nevada?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Missouri's report ($15, every two years) and Nevada's report (fee set by the state).

Does Nevada require a registered agent?

Yes: the Missouri registered agent stays, and ours covers Nevada for year one.

Can I form a new Nevada corporation instead?

Yes, but Missouri keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nevada's Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent, and the original keeps Missouri's Corporate Registration Report.

How do I withdraw from Nevada later?

Missouri companies leave by filing a Certificate of Dissolution/Withdrawal; until then, Nevada's report stays due alongside Missouri's filings.
