From Colorado to New Hampshire, step by step

It lists us as your New Hampshire registered agent, next to your Colorado name and formation date. Nothing has to come from Colorado first, so the New Hampshire filing can go in right away. Once New Hampshire approves it, the Colorado company can do business there.

Will your Colorado name work for New Hampshire?

We check your exact Colorado name against New Hampshire's records before filing.

Agents: New Hampshire and Colorado

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

Questions Colorado owners ask about New Hampshire

How much does it cost to register a Colorado LLC in New Hampshire?

$301 at checkout, with nothing to pay Colorado.

Do I need Colorado's certificate of good standing?

No, New Hampshire takes Form FLLC-1 without it.

$274 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $25 to Colorado and $100 to New Hampshire for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with New Hampshire?

A Colorado company cannot sue in court there until it registers.

Does New Hampshire require a registered agent?

Yes: the Colorado registered agent stays, and ours covers New Hampshire for year one.

Can I form a new New Hampshire LLC instead?

Yes, but Colorado keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files New Hampshire's Annual Report ($102), and the original keeps Colorado's Periodic Report.

How do I withdraw from New Hampshire later?

Colorado companies leave by filing an Application for Certificate of Cancellation of Registration of Foreign Limited Liability Company; until then, New Hampshire's report stays due alongside Colorado's filings.
