From Hawaii to Mississippi, step by step

Order the Hawaii certificate
The Good Standing Certificate ($5) is ordered from Hawaii separately; it is not part of our Mississippi order. Mississippi accepts it within 180 days of Hawaii's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file Form F0200
It names us as your Mississippi registered agent, with your Hawaii name and formation date and the certificate attached. Once Hawaii's certificate is in hand, Mississippi's filing goes in. Once Mississippi approves it, the Hawaii company can do business there.

Does Mississippi require a registered agent?

Can I form a new Mississippi LLC instead?

How do I withdraw from Mississippi later?

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