From Kansas to New York, 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 New York order. New York accepts it within one year of Kansas's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file Form DOS-1361-f-a
It names us as your New York registered agent, with your Kansas name and formation date and the certificate attached. Once Kansas's certificate is in hand, New York's filing goes in. After approval, your Kansas LLC is registered with New York.

The other way: New York into Kansas

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

Common questions: Kansas to New York

Does my Kansas company need to register in New York?

Yes, once a Kansas business operates there; New York registers it as a foreign LLC.

How much does the New York registration cost?

$449 at checkout plus $7.50 to Kansas for the Certificate of Good Standing, $456.50 in all (checkout is $250 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Kansas's certificate of good standing?

Yes: New York wants it ($7.50), no more than one year old at filing.

How long does the New York registration take?

New York's standard processing takes 7 business days, once Kansas's certificate is in hand. Paid expedite: 24-hour $25, same-day $75.

What are the yearly costs for Kansas and New York?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Kansas's report ($90, every two years) and New York's report ($9, every two years).

What if I don't register with New York?

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

Does New York require a registered agent?

Yes: the Kansas resident agent stays, and ours covers New York for year one.

Can I form a new New York LLC instead?

Yes, but Kansas keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files New York's Biennial Statement ($9), and the original keeps Kansas's Information Report.

How do I withdraw from New York later?

Kansas companies leave by filing a Certificate of Surrender of Authority of a Foreign Limited Liability Company; until then, New York's report stays due alongside Kansas's filings.
