Missouri LLC Foreign Registration in Mississippi

To do business in Mississippi, an LLC formed in Missouri registers there on Form F0200, with $250 in state fees. Mississippi also asks for Missouri's Certificate of Good Standing ($10), no older than 180 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Services from your Missouri records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

How Missouri companies register with Mississippi

Order the Missouri certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($10) is ordered from Missouri separately; it is not part of our Mississippi order. Mississippi accepts it within 180 days of Missouri's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file Form F0200
It lists us as your Mississippi registered agent, next to your Missouri name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once Missouri's certificate is in hand, Mississippi's filing goes in. After approval, your Missouri LLC is registered with Mississippi.

Your Missouri name and Mississippi's rules

We check your exact Missouri name against Mississippi's records before filing.

Your Mississippi agent and the Missouri one

Missouri and Mississippi both call it a registered agent. Mississippi papers come to us; Missouri's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Mississippi and Missouri

Missouri has no annual report for LLCs; Mississippi wants the Annual Report every year ($250). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Missouri to Mississippi

A corporation formed in Missouri files Form F0002 with Mississippi ($500 in state fees). After that come Missouri's Corporate Registration Report ($15) and Mississippi's Annual Report ($25). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Mississippi into Missouri

An LLC formed in Mississippi that registers with Missouri files Form LLC 4 with $105 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing / Certificate of Existence ($25) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Missouri owners ask about Mississippi

Does my Missouri company need to register in Mississippi?

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

$449 at checkout plus $10 to Missouri for the Certificate of Good Standing, $459 in all (checkout is $250 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Missouri's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Mississippi wants it ($10), no more than 180 days old at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Missouri and Mississippi?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), no Missouri yearly report and Mississippi's report ($250).

What if I don't register with Mississippi?

A Missouri company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Mississippi can add a penalty of $10 a day, up to $1,000 a year.

Does Mississippi require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Mississippi LLC instead?

Yes, but Missouri keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Mississippi's Annual Report (no fee), and Missouri has no yearly report for the original.

How do I withdraw from Mississippi later?

Missouri companies leave by filing a Certificate of Cancellation of Foreign Limited Liability Company; until then, Mississippi's report stays due alongside Missouri's filings.
