Kansas LLC Foreign Registration in Indiana

To do business in Indiana, an LLC formed in Kansas registers there on State Form 56369, with $105 in state fees. Indiana also wants Kansas's Certificate of Good Standing ($7.50), dated within 60 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Services Division from your Kansas records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

From Kansas to Indiana, step by step

Order the Kansas certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($7.50) is ordered from Kansas separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. Indiana counts 60 days from the day Kansas 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 Kansas name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once Kansas's certificate is in hand, Indiana's filing goes in. Once Indiana approves it, the Kansas company can do business there.

Your Indiana agent and the Kansas one

Indiana calls it a registered agent; Kansas says resident agent. Indiana papers come to us; Kansas's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Indiana and Kansas

Kansas wants the Information Report every two years ($90); Indiana wants the Business Entity Report every two years ($32). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

The other way: Indiana into Kansas

An LLC formed in Indiana that registers with Kansas files Form FA with $115 in state fees; no Indiana certificate is needed. See that filing.

Common questions: Kansas to Indiana

Does my Kansas company need to register in Indiana?

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

How much does it cost to register a Kansas LLC in Indiana?

$304 at checkout plus $7.50 to Kansas for the Certificate of Good Standing, $311.50 in all (checkout is $105 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Kansas's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Indiana wants it ($7.50), no more than 60 days old at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Kansas and Indiana?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Kansas's report ($90, every two years) and Indiana's report ($32, every two years).

What if I don't register with Indiana?

A Kansas company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Indiana can add a civil penalty of up to $10,000.

Does Indiana require a registered agent?

Yes: the Kansas resident agent stays, and ours covers Indiana for year one, with a street address there.

Can I form a new Indiana LLC instead?

Yes, but Kansas keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Indiana's Business Entity Report ($32), and the original keeps Kansas's Information Report.

How do I withdraw from Indiana later?

Kansas companies leave by filing a Statement of Withdrawal; until then, Indiana's report stays due alongside Kansas's filings.
