Hawaii LLC Foreign Registration in Oklahoma

Oklahoma registers an LLC from Hawaii as a foreign LLC on Form 0081, with $312 in state fees. Oklahoma also asks for Hawaii's Good Standing Certificate ($5), no older than 60 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Filing Department using your Hawaii records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

From Hawaii to Oklahoma, step by step

Order the Hawaii certificate
The Good Standing Certificate ($5) is ordered from Hawaii separately; it is not part of our Oklahoma order. Oklahoma counts 60 days from the day Hawaii issues it, so the order goes in shortly before filing.
We prepare and file Form 0081
It lists us as your Oklahoma registered agent, next to your Hawaii name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The Hawaii certificate comes first; then the Oklahoma filing goes in. Once Oklahoma approves it, the Hawaii company can do business there.

Agents: Oklahoma and Hawaii

Hawaii and Oklahoma both call it a registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Hawaii; ours takes Oklahoma's papers and notices.

Yearly filings: Oklahoma and Hawaii

Each year your LLC files Hawaii's Domestic Limited Liability Company Annual Report (Form C5) ($12.50) and Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($25). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Hawaii plus Oklahoma comes to $186.50 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Hawaii to Oklahoma

A corporation formed in Hawaii files Form 0012 with Oklahoma ($312 in state fees, the same). After that come Hawaii's Annual Report ($15) and Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($10). See the corporation filing.

Registering an Oklahoma company in Hawaii

An LLC formed in Oklahoma that registers with Hawaii files Form FLLC-1 with $51 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($20) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Hawaii owners ask about Oklahoma

Does my Hawaii company need to register in Oklahoma?

Yes, once a Hawaii business operates there; Oklahoma law lists 12 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does the Oklahoma registration cost?

$511 at checkout plus $5 to Hawaii for the Good Standing Certificate, $516 in all (checkout is $312 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Hawaii's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Oklahoma wants it ($5), no more than 60 days old at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Hawaii and Oklahoma?

$186.50 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $12.50 to Hawaii and $25 to Oklahoma for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oklahoma?

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

Does Oklahoma require a registered agent?

Yes: the Hawaii registered agent stays, and ours covers Oklahoma for year one, with a street address there.

Can I form a new Oklahoma LLC instead?

Yes, but Hawaii keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($26), and the original keeps Hawaii's yearly report.

How do I withdraw from Oklahoma later?

Hawaii companies leave by filing an Application for Withdrawal (Foreign Limited Liability Company) ($100); until then, Oklahoma's report stays due alongside Hawaii's filings.
