How Mississippi companies register with Minnesota
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Minnesota registered agent, next to your Mississippi name and formation date. No Mississippi paperwork holds up the Minnesota filing. After approval, your Mississippi LLC is registered with Minnesota.
Will your Mississippi name work for Minnesota?
We check your exact Mississippi name against Minnesota's records before filing.
Agents: Minnesota and Mississippi
Mississippi and Minnesota both call it a registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Mississippi; ours takes Minnesota's papers and notices.
Yearly filings: Minnesota and Mississippi
Each year your LLC files Mississippi's Annual Report (no fee) and Minnesota's Annual Renewal (no fee). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Mississippi plus Minnesota comes to $149 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.
LLC or corporation, Mississippi to Minnesota
A corporation formed in Mississippi files its own registration with Minnesota ($220 in state fees). After that come Mississippi's Annual Report ($25) and Minnesota's Annual Renewal ($115). See the corporation filing.
The other way: Minnesota into Mississippi
An LLC formed in Minnesota that registers with Mississippi files Form F0200 with $250 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($5) dated within 180 days. See that filing.
Common questions: Mississippi to Minnesota
Does my Mississippi company need to register in Minnesota?

$404 at checkout, with nothing to pay Mississippi.
Do I need Mississippi's certificate of good standing?
No, Minnesota takes the registration without it.
How long does the Minnesota registration take?
Minnesota's online processing takes 2 to 5 business days; nothing comes from Mississippi first.
What are the yearly costs for Mississippi and Minnesota?
$149 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, nothing to Mississippi and nothing to Minnesota for the yearly reports.
What if I don't register with Minnesota?
A Mississippi company cannot sue in court there until it registers.
Does Minnesota require a registered agent?
Yes: the Mississippi registered agent stays, and ours covers Minnesota for year one.
Can I form a new Minnesota LLC instead?
Yes, but Mississippi keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Minnesota's Annual Renewal (no fee), and the original keeps Mississippi's Annual Report.
How do I withdraw from Minnesota later?
Mississippi companies leave by filing an Application for Withdrawal of a Foreign Limited Liability Company ($35); until then, Minnesota's report stays due alongside Mississippi's filings.
