Maine LLC Foreign Registration in Oregon

To do business in Oregon, an LLC formed in Maine registers there on Form 110, with $275 in state fees. Oregon waives the Maine Certificate of Existence when it can search those records online for free. We file it with the Secretary of State, Corporation Division from your Maine records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

How Maine companies register with Oregon

Have the Maine registry number ready
The state checks Maine's online records instead of a paper certificate when that search is free; otherwise a Certificate of Existence goes in with the filing.
We prepare and file Form 110
It names us as your Oregon registered agent, with your Maine name and formation date. Nothing has to come from Maine first, so the Oregon filing can go in right away. After approval, your Maine LLC is registered with Oregon.

Will your Maine name work for Oregon?

We check your exact Maine name against Oregon's records before filing.

Agents: Oregon and Maine

Questions Maine owners ask about Oregon

Does my Maine company need to register in Oregon?

Yes, once a Maine business operates there; Oregon law lists 11 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does it cost to register a Maine LLC in Oregon?

$474 at checkout, with nothing to pay Maine.

Do I need Maine's certificate of good standing?

Not when Oregon can search those records online for free; the application then uses your registry number.

What are the yearly costs for Maine and Oregon?

$509 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $85 to Maine and $275 to Oregon for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oregon?

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

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

Yes: the Maine registered agent stays, and ours covers Oregon for year one.

Can I form a new Oregon LLC instead?

Yes, but Maine keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oregon's Annual Report ($100), and the original keeps Maine's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

Maine companies leave by filing a Foreign LLC Amendment/Withdrawal ($275); until then, Oregon's report stays due alongside Maine's filings.
