How Arizona companies register with Nebraska

Order the Arizona certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($10) is ordered from Arizona separately; it is not part of our Nebraska order. Nebraska wants the Arizona 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 Arizona name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The Arizona certificate comes first; then the Nebraska filing goes in. After approval, your Arizona LLC is registered with Nebraska.

Your Arizona name and Nebraska's rules

If Nebraska's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Arizona company. We check your exact Arizona name against Nebraska's records before filing.

Agents: Nebraska and Arizona

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

Staying in good standing in Arizona and Nebraska

Arizona has no annual report for LLCs; Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Arizona to Nebraska

A corporation formed in Arizona files its own registration with Nebraska ($110 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($10)). After that come Arizona's Annual Report and Certificate of Disclosure ($45) and Nebraska's Biennial Report ($52). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Nebraska into Arizona

An LLC formed in Nebraska that registers with Arizona files Form L025 with $153.30 in state fees and a $35 required expedite, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($6.50) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Arizona owners ask about Nebraska

Does my Arizona company need to register in Nebraska?

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

How much does it cost to register an Arizona LLC in Nebraska?

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

Do I need Arizona's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Nebraska wants it ($10), current at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Arizona and Nebraska?

Our agent for service of process renewal ($149 a year), no Arizona yearly report and Nebraska's report ($25, every two years).

What if I don't register with Nebraska?

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

Does Nebraska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Arizona statutory agent stays, and ours covers Nebraska for year one.

Will Nebraska 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 Nebraska LLC instead?

Yes, but Arizona keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nebraska's Biennial Report ($25), and Arizona has no yearly report for the original.

How do I withdraw from Nebraska later?

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