From Arizona to Idaho, step by step
Order the Arizona certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($10) is ordered from Arizona separately; it is not part of our Idaho order. Idaho accepts it within 90 days of Arizona's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Idaho registered agent, next to your Arizona name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once Arizona's certificate is in hand, Idaho's filing goes in. Once Idaho approves it, the Arizona company can do business there.

Will your Arizona name work for Idaho?
If Idaho's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Arizona company. We check your exact Arizona name against Idaho's records before filing.
Your Idaho agent and the Arizona one
Idaho calls it a registered agent; Arizona says statutory agent. Your current statutory agent stays for Arizona; ours takes Idaho's papers and notices.
Yearly filings: Idaho and Arizona
Arizona has no annual report for LLCs; Idaho wants the Annual Report every year (no fee). Both states' filings stay current side by side.
LLC or corporation, Arizona to Idaho
A corporation formed in Arizona files its own registration with Idaho ($103.50 in state fees, the same). After that come Arizona's Annual Report and Certificate of Disclosure ($45) and Idaho's Annual Report (no fee). See the corporation filing.
The other way: Idaho into Arizona
An LLC formed in Idaho that registers with Arizona files Form L025 with $153.30 in state fees and a $35 required expedite, plus the Certificate of Existence ($10) dated within 60 days. See that filing.
Questions Arizona owners ask about Idaho
Does my Arizona company need to register in Idaho?
Yes, once an Arizona business operates there; Idaho law lists 11 activities that do not count on their own.
How much does it cost to register an Arizona LLC in Idaho?
$302.50 at checkout plus $10 to Arizona for the Certificate of Good Standing, $312.50 in all (checkout is $103.50 in state fees plus our $199).
Do I need Arizona's certificate of good standing?
Yes: Idaho wants it ($10), no more than 90 days old at filing.
How long does the Idaho registration take?
Idaho's standard processing takes about 3 to 5 days from the date of filing, once Arizona's certificate is in hand. Paid expedite: $40.
What are the yearly costs for Arizona and Idaho?
Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), no Arizona yearly report and Idaho's report (no fee).
What if I don't register with Idaho?
An Arizona company cannot sue in court there until it registers.
Does Idaho require a registered agent?
Yes: the Arizona statutory agent stays, and ours covers Idaho for year one, with a street address there.
Will Idaho accept my Arizona name?
Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Arizona name at home.
Can I form a new Idaho LLC instead?
Yes, but Arizona keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Idaho's Annual Report (no fee), and Arizona has no yearly report for the original.
How do I withdraw from Idaho later?
Arizona companies leave by filing a Withdrawal of Foreign Registration Statement ($20); until then, Idaho's report stays due alongside Arizona's filings.
