Nevada Corporation Foreign Registration in Alaska

Alaska registers a corporation from Nevada as a foreign corporation on Form 08-414, with $350 in state fees. Alaska may ask for Nevada's Certificate of Existence ($50). We file it with the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing using your Nevada records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

From Nevada to Alaska, step by step

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

Your Nevada name and Alaska's rules

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

Agents: Alaska and Nevada

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

Yearly filings: Alaska and Nevada

Nevada wants the Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent every year; Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Nevada to Alaska

An LLC formed in Nevada files Form 08-0497 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Existence ($50)). After that come Nevada's periodic report ($350) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the LLC filing.

Registering an Alaska company in Nevada

A corporation formed in Alaska that registers with Nevada files Nevada's registration (no form number) with $425 in state fees. See that filing.

Questions Nevada owners ask about Alaska

Does my Nevada company need to register in Alaska?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

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

How much does the Alaska registration cost?

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

What are the yearly costs for Nevada and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Nevada's report (fee set by the state) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Alaska corporation instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

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