Idaho LLC Foreign Registration in Indiana
Indiana registers an LLC from Idaho as a foreign LLC on State Form 56369, with $105 in state fees. Indiana also wants Idaho's Certificate of Existence ($10), dated within 60 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Services Division from your Idaho records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

How Idaho companies register with Indiana
Order the Idaho certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($10) is ordered from Idaho separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. Indiana counts 60 days from the day Idaho issues it, so the order goes in shortly before filing.
We prepare and file State Form 56369
It lists us as your Indiana registered agent, next to your Idaho name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The Idaho certificate comes first; then the Indiana filing goes in. After approval, your Idaho LLC is registered with Indiana.
