How Indiana companies register with Mississippi

Order the Indiana certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($15) is ordered from Indiana separately; it is not part of our Mississippi order. Mississippi accepts it within 180 days of Indiana'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 Indiana name and formation date and the certificate attached. The Indiana certificate comes first; then the Mississippi filing goes in. Once Mississippi approves it, the Indiana 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?

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