From Indiana to Nebraska, step by step

Order the Indiana certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($15) is ordered from Indiana separately; it is not part of our Nebraska order. Nebraska wants the Indiana certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Nebraska agent for service of process, with your Indiana name and formation date and the certificate attached. Once Indiana's certificate is in hand, Nebraska's filing goes in. After approval, your Indiana LLC is registered with Nebraska.

Your Indiana name and Nebraska's rules

If Nebraska's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Indiana company. We search Nebraska's records for Indiana's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Nebraska agent and the Indiana one

Nebraska calls it an agent for service of process; Indiana says registered agent. Nebraska papers come to us; Indiana's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Nebraska and Indiana

Indiana wants the Business Entity Report every two years ($32); Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Indiana to Nebraska

A corporation formed in Indiana files its own registration with Nebraska ($110 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Existence ($15)). After that come Indiana's Business Entity Report ($32) and Nebraska's Biennial Report ($52). See the corporation filing.

Registering a Nebraska company in Indiana

Common questions: Indiana to Nebraska

Does my Indiana company need to register in Nebraska?

Yes, once an Indiana business operates there; Nebraska does not count a one-off deal finished within 30 days.

How much does the Nebraska registration cost?

$309 at checkout plus $15 to Indiana for the Certificate of Existence, $324 in all (checkout is $110 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Indiana's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Nebraska wants Indiana's Certificate of Existence ($15), current at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Indiana and Nebraska?

Our agent for service of process renewal ($149 a year), Indiana's report ($32, every two years) and Nebraska's report ($25, every two years).

What if I don't register with Nebraska?

An Indiana company cannot sue in court there until it registers.

Does Nebraska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Indiana registered agent stays, and ours covers Nebraska for year one.

Will Nebraska accept my Indiana name?

Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Indiana name at home.

Can I form a new Nebraska LLC instead?

Yes, but Indiana keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nebraska's Biennial Report ($25), and the original keeps Indiana's Business Entity Report.

How do I withdraw from Nebraska later?

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