From New York to Nebraska, step by step

Order the New York certificate
The Certificate of Status ($25) is ordered from New York separately; it is not part of our Nebraska order. Nebraska wants the New York certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Nebraska agent for service of process, next to your New York name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Allow for the days New York takes to send the certificate before the Nebraska filing goes in. Once Nebraska approves it, the New York company can do business there.

Your New York name and Nebraska's rules

If Nebraska's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the New York company. We search Nebraska's records for New York's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Nebraska agent and the New York one

Nebraska calls it an agent for service of process; New York says registered agent. Nebraska papers come to us; New York's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Nebraska and New York

New York wants the Biennial Statement every two years ($9); Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($52). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, New York to Nebraska

An LLC formed in New York files its own registration with Nebraska ($110 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Status ($25)). After that come New York's Biennial Statement ($9) and Nebraska's Biennial Report ($25). See the LLC filing.

The other way: Nebraska into New York

A corporation formed in Nebraska that registers with New York files Form DOS-1335-f-a with $225 in state fees. See that filing.

Questions New York owners ask about Nebraska

Does my New York company need to register in Nebraska?

Yes, once a New York business operates there; Nebraska registers it as a foreign corporation.

Is this a certificate of authority?

Yes: Nebraska issues one to New York corporations once the filing is approved.

How much does the Nebraska registration cost?

$309 at checkout plus $25 to New York for the Certificate of Status, $334 in all (checkout is $110 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need New York's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Nebraska wants New York's Certificate of Status ($25), current at filing.

What are the yearly costs for New York and Nebraska?

Our agent for service of process renewal ($149 a year), New York's report ($9, every two years) and Nebraska's report ($52, every two years).

What if I don't register with Nebraska?

A New York company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Nebraska can add a penalty of $500 a day, up to $10,000 a year.

Does Nebraska require a registered agent?

Yes: the New York registered agent stays, and ours covers Nebraska for year one.

Will Nebraska accept my New York name?

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

Can I form a new Nebraska corporation instead?

Yes, but New York keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nebraska's Biennial Report ($26), and the original keeps New York's Biennial Statement.

How do I withdraw from Nebraska later?

New York companies leave by filing a Certificate of Withdrawal to Transact Business in the State of Nebraska; until then, Nebraska's report stays due alongside New York's filings.
