New York Corporation Foreign Registration in Alaska
Alaska registers a corporation from New York as a foreign corporation on Form 08-414, with $350 in state fees. Alaska may ask for New York's Certificate of Status ($25).

How New York companies register with Alaska
We prepare and file Form 08-414
It lists us as your Alaska registered agent, next to your New York name and formation date. If Alaska wants the New York certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your New York corporation is registered with Alaska.
Will your New York name work for Alaska?
We search Alaska's records for New York's name on file before anything is filed.
Your Alaska agent and the New York one
New York and Alaska both call it a registered agent. Alaska papers come to us; New York's agent is unchanged.
Yearly filings: Alaska and New York
New York wants the Biennial Statement every two years ($9); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.
LLC or corporation, New York to Alaska
An LLC formed in New York files Form 08-0497 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Status ($25)). After that come New York's Biennial Statement ($9) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the LLC filing.
The other way: Alaska into New York
A corporation formed in Alaska that registers with New York files Form DOS-1335-f-a with $225 in state fees. See that filing.
Common questions: New York to Alaska
Does my New York company need to register in Alaska?
Yes, once a New York business operates there; Alaska registers it as a foreign corporation.
Is this a certificate of authority?
Yes: Alaska issues one to New York corporations once the form is approved.
How much does the Alaska registration cost?
$549 at checkout; Alaska may also want New York's Certificate of Status, at extra cost.
How long does the Alaska registration take?
Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid, plus time for New York's certificate if Alaska asks for it.
What are the yearly costs for New York and Alaska?
Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), New York's report ($9, every two years) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).
Does Alaska require a registered agent?
Yes: the New York registered agent stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.
Can I form a new Alaska corporation instead?
Yes, but New York keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Alaska's Biennial Report ($100), and the original keeps New York's Biennial Statement.
How do I withdraw from Alaska later?
New York companies leave by filing Form 08-502; until then, Alaska's report stays due alongside New York's filings.
