Mississippi LLC Foreign Registration in Oklahoma

Oklahoma registers an LLC from Mississippi as a foreign LLC on Form 0081, with $312 in state fees. Oklahoma also wants Mississippi's Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence ($25), dated within 60 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Filing Department using your Mississippi records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

How Mississippi companies register with Oklahoma

Order the Mississippi certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence ($25) is ordered from Mississippi separately; it is not part of our Oklahoma order. An instant Mississippi certificate reaches Oklahoma only hours old, well inside the limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file Form 0081
It lists us as your Oklahoma registered agent, next to your Mississippi name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Mississippi issues the certificate instantly, so the Oklahoma filing can go in the same day. After approval, your Mississippi LLC is registered with Oklahoma.

Common questions: Mississippi to Oklahoma

Does my Mississippi company need to register in Oklahoma?

Yes, once a Mississippi business operates there; Oklahoma law lists 12 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does the Oklahoma registration cost?

$511 at checkout plus $25 to Mississippi for the Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence, $536 in all (checkout is $312 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Mississippi's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Oklahoma wants it ($25), no more than 60 days old at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Mississippi and Oklahoma?

$174 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, nothing to Mississippi and $25 to Oklahoma for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oklahoma?

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

Does Oklahoma require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Oklahoma LLC instead?

Yes, but Mississippi keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($26), and the original keeps Mississippi's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Oklahoma later?

Mississippi companies leave by filing an Application for Withdrawal (Foreign Limited Liability Company) ($100); until then, Oklahoma's report stays due alongside Mississippi's filings.
