How New York companies register with Nevada

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

Will your New York name work for Nevada?

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

Your Nevada agent and the New York one

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

Yearly filings: Nevada and New York

New York wants the Biennial Statement every two years ($9); 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, New York to Nevada

An LLC formed in New York files its own registration with Nevada ($425 in state fees, the same; no home-state certificate is needed). After that come New York's Biennial Statement ($9) and Nevada's periodic report ($350). See the LLC filing.

The other way: Nevada into New York

A corporation formed in Nevada 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 Nevada

Does my New York company need to register in Nevada?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

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

How much does the Nevada registration cost?

$624 at checkout; Nevada may also want New York's Certificate of Status, 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 New York's certificate if Nevada asks for it. Paid expedite: 2-hour $500, 1-hour $1,000.

What are the yearly costs for New York and Nevada?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), New York's report ($9, every two years) and Nevada's report (fee set by the state).

Does Nevada require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Nevada corporation instead?

Yes, but New York 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 New York's Biennial Statement.

How do I withdraw from Nevada later?

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