How Alaska companies register with Nebraska

Order the Alaska certificate
The Certificate of Compliance ($10) is ordered from Alaska separately; it is not part of our Nebraska order. Nebraska wants the Alaska certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Nebraska agent for service of process, with your Alaska name and formation date and the certificate attached. Allow for the days Alaska takes to send the certificate before the Nebraska filing goes in. Once Nebraska approves it, the Alaska company can do business there.

Your Alaska name and Nebraska's rules

If another Nebraska company uses the Alaska name, an alternate name is allowed. We check your exact Alaska name against Nebraska's records before filing.

Agents: Nebraska and Alaska

Nebraska calls it an agent for service of process; Alaska says registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Alaska; ours takes Nebraska's papers and notices.

Staying in good standing in Alaska and Nebraska

Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($100); Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Alaska to Nebraska

A corporation formed in Alaska files its own registration with Nebraska ($110 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Compliance ($10)). After that come Alaska's Biennial Report ($100) and Nebraska's Biennial Report ($52). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Nebraska into Alaska

An LLC formed in Nebraska that registers with Alaska files Form 08-0497 with $350 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($6.50). See that filing.

Questions Alaska owners ask about Nebraska

Does my Alaska company need to register in Nebraska?

Yes, once an Alaska business operates there; Nebraska does not count a one-off deal finished within 30 days.

How much does the Nebraska registration cost?

$309 at checkout plus $10 to Alaska for the Certificate of Compliance, $319 in all (checkout is $110 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Alaska's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Nebraska wants Alaska's Certificate of Compliance ($10), current at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Alaska and Nebraska?

Our agent for service of process renewal ($149 a year), Alaska's report ($100, every two years) and Nebraska's report ($25, every two years).

What if I don't register with Nebraska?

An Alaska company cannot sue in court there until it registers.

Does Nebraska require a registered agent?

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

Will Nebraska accept my Alaska name?

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

Can I form a new Nebraska LLC instead?

Yes, but Alaska keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nebraska's Biennial Report ($25), and the original keeps Alaska's Biennial Report.

How do I withdraw from Nebraska later?

Alaska companies leave by filing a Notice of Cancellation of Foreign Limited Liability Company Certificate of Authority; until then, Nebraska's report stays due alongside Alaska's filings.
