From Georgia to Alaska, step by step

Order the Georgia certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($10) is ordered from Georgia separately; it is not part of our Alaska order. Alaska wants the Georgia certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file Form 08-0497
It names us as your Alaska registered agent, with your Georgia name and formation date and the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Georgia delays the Alaska filing. Once Alaska approves it, the Georgia company can do business there.

Will your Georgia name work for Alaska?

We search Alaska's records for Georgia's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Alaska agent and the Georgia one

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

Yearly filings: Alaska and Georgia

Georgia wants the Annual Registration every year ($60); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Georgia to Alaska

A corporation formed in Georgia files Form 08-414 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same). After that come Georgia's Annual Registration ($60) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the corporation filing.

Registering an Alaska company in Georgia

An LLC formed in Alaska that registers with Georgia files Form CD 241 with $235 in state fees; no Alaska certificate is needed. See that filing.

Common questions: Georgia to Alaska

Does my Georgia company need to register in Alaska?

Yes, once a Georgia business operates there; Alaska law lists 9 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does it cost to register a Georgia LLC in Alaska?

$549 at checkout plus $10 to Georgia for the Certificate of Existence, $559 in all (checkout is $350 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Georgia's certificate of good standing?

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

How long does the Alaska registration take?

Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid; Georgia's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

What are the yearly costs for Georgia and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Georgia's report ($60) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

What if I don't register with Alaska?

A Georgia company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Alaska can add a civil penalty of up to $10,000.

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Alaska LLC instead?

Yes, but Georgia keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Alaska's Biennial Report ($100), and the original keeps Georgia's Annual Registration.

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

Georgia companies leave by filing Form 08-502 ($25); until then, Alaska's report stays due alongside Georgia's filings.
