Maryland LLC Foreign Registration in Oregon

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

From Maryland to Oregon, step by step

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

Your Maryland name and Oregon's rules

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

Agents: Oregon and Maryland

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

Yearly filings: Oregon and Maryland

Each year your LLC files Maryland's Business Entity Annual Report (Form 1) ($300) and Oregon's Annual Report ($275). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Maryland plus Oregon comes to $724 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Maryland to Oregon

A corporation formed in Maryland files Form 50 with Oregon ($275 in state fees, the same). After that come Maryland's periodic report ($300) and Oregon's Annual Report ($275). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Oregon into Maryland

An LLC formed in Oregon that registers with Maryland files Maryland's registration (no form number) with $104.50 in state fees and a $50 required expedite, plus the Certificate of Existence ($10) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Maryland owners ask about Oregon

Does my Maryland company need to register in Oregon?

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

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

$474 at checkout, with nothing to pay Maryland.

Do I need Maryland'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 Maryland and Oregon?

$724 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $300 to Maryland and $275 to Oregon for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oregon?

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

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

Yes: the Maryland resident agent stays, and ours covers Oregon for year one.

Can I form a new Oregon LLC instead?

Yes, but Maryland keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oregon's Annual Report ($100), and the original keeps Maryland's Business Entity Annual Report (Form 1).

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

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