Florida LLC Foreign Registration in Nevada

Nevada registers an LLC from Florida as a foreign LLC on an online registration (no form number), with $425 in state fees. Nevada needs nothing from Florida: no Certificate of Status. We file it with the Secretary of State, Commercial Recordings Division from your Florida records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

From Florida to Nevada, step by step

We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Nevada registered agent, with your Florida name and formation date. No Florida paperwork holds up the Nevada filing. Once Nevada approves it, the Florida company can do business there.

Will your Florida name work for Nevada?

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

Your Nevada agent and the Florida one

Florida and Nevada both call it a registered agent. Nevada papers come to us; Florida's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Nevada and Florida

Each year your LLC files Florida's Annual Report ($138.75) and Nevada's periodic report ($350). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Florida plus Nevada comes to $637.75 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Florida to Nevada

A corporation formed in Florida files its own registration with Nevada ($425 in state fees, the same). After that come Florida's Annual Report ($150) and Nevada's Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent. See the corporation filing.

The other way: Nevada into Florida

An LLC formed in Nevada that registers with Florida files Form CR2E027 with $125 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Existence ($50) dated within 90 days. See that filing.

Questions Florida owners ask about Nevada

$624 at checkout, with nothing to pay Florida.

Do I need Florida's certificate of good standing?

No, Nevada takes the registration without it.

How long does the Nevada registration take?

Nevada says most online filings are processed the same day at no extra charge; nothing comes from Florida first. Paid expedite: 2-hour $500, 1-hour $1,000.

$637.75 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $138.75 to Florida and $350 to Nevada for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Nevada?

Nevada can charge a Florida company a fine of at least $1,000.

Does Nevada require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Nevada LLC instead?

Yes, but Florida keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nevada's periodic report ($350), and the original keeps Florida's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Nevada later?

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