How Nebraska companies register with Alaska

Order the Nebraska certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($6.50) is ordered from Nebraska separately; it is not part of our Alaska order. It comes as a short form ($6.50) or a long form ($10). Alaska wants the Nebraska certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file Form 08-0497
It lists us as your Alaska registered agent, next to your Nebraska name and formation date, with the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Nebraska delays the Alaska filing. After approval, your Nebraska LLC is registered with Alaska.

We check your exact Nebraska name against Alaska's records before filing.

Your Alaska agent and the Nebraska one

Alaska calls it a registered agent; Nebraska says agent for service of process. Alaska papers come to us; Nebraska's agent is unchanged.

Staying in good standing in Nebraska and Alaska

Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Nebraska to Alaska

A corporation formed in Nebraska files Form 08-414 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same). After that come Nebraska's Biennial Report ($26) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the corporation filing.

Registering an Alaska company in Nebraska

An LLC formed in Alaska that registers with Nebraska files Nebraska's registration (no form number) with $110 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Compliance ($10). See that filing.

Questions Nebraska owners ask about Alaska

Does my Nebraska company need to register in Alaska?

Yes, once a Nebraska business operates there; Alaska law lists 9 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does it cost to register a Nebraska LLC in Alaska?

$549 at checkout plus $6.50 to Nebraska for the Certificate of Good Standing, $555.50 in all (checkout is $350 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Nebraska's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Alaska wants it ($6.50), current at filing.

How long does the Alaska registration take?

Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid; Nebraska's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

What are the yearly costs for Nebraska and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Nebraska's report ($25, every two years) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

What if I don't register with Alaska?

A Nebraska company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Alaska can add a civil penalty of up to $10,000.

Does Alaska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Nebraska agent for service of process stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.

Can I form a new Alaska LLC instead?

Yes, but Nebraska keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Alaska's Biennial Report ($100), and the original keeps Nebraska's Biennial Report.

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

Nebraska companies leave by filing Form 08-502 ($25); until then, Alaska's report stays due alongside Nebraska's filings.
