From Mississippi to New York, 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 New York order. An instant Mississippi certificate reaches New York only hours old, well inside the limit of one year.
We prepare and file Form DOS-1361-f-a
It lists us as your New York registered agent, next to your Mississippi name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Mississippi issues the certificate instantly, so the New York filing can go in the same day. Once New York approves it, the Mississippi company can do business there.

Common questions: Mississippi to New York

Does my Mississippi company need to register in New York?

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

How much does it cost to register a Mississippi LLC in New York?

$449 at checkout plus $25 to Mississippi for the Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence, $474 in all (checkout is $250 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Mississippi's certificate of good standing?

Yes: New York wants it ($25), 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; Mississippi's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing. Paid expedite: 24-hour $25, same-day $75.

What are the yearly costs for Mississippi and New York?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Mississippi's report (no fee) and New York's report ($9, every two years).

What if I don't register with New York?

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

Does New York require a registered agent?

Yes: the Mississippi registered agent stays, and ours covers New York for year one.

Can I form a new New York LLC instead?

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

How do I withdraw from New York later?

Mississippi 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 Mississippi's filings.
