From Mississippi to Indiana, step by step

Order the Mississippi certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence ($25) is ordered from Mississippi separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. An instant Mississippi certificate reaches Indiana only hours old, well inside the limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file State Form 56369
It lists us as your Indiana registered agent, next to your Mississippi name and formation date, with the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Mississippi delays the Indiana filing. After approval, your Mississippi LLC is registered with Indiana.

Does Indiana require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Indiana LLC instead?

How do I withdraw from Indiana later?

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