How Nebraska companies register with Arizona

Order the Nebraska certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($6.50) is ordered from Nebraska separately; it is not part of our Arizona order. It comes as a short form ($6.50) or a long form ($10). An instant Nebraska certificate reaches Arizona only hours old, well inside the limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file Form L025
It names us as your Arizona statutory agent, with your Nebraska name and formation date and the certificate attached. Nebraska issues the certificate instantly, so the Arizona filing can go in the same day. After approval, your Nebraska LLC is registered with Arizona.

Your Nebraska name and Arizona's rules

If Arizona's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Nebraska company. We check your exact Nebraska name against Arizona's records before filing.

Your Arizona agent and the Nebraska one

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

Staying in good standing in Nebraska and Arizona

Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25); Arizona has no annual report for LLCs. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Nebraska to Arizona

A corporation formed in Nebraska files Form C018 with Arizona ($178.85 in state fees and the $35 required expedite). After that come Nebraska's Biennial Report ($26) and Arizona's Annual Report and Certificate of Disclosure ($45). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Arizona into Nebraska

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

Common questions: Nebraska to Arizona

Does my Nebraska company need to register in Arizona?

$387.30 at checkout plus $6.50 to Nebraska for the Certificate of Good Standing, $393.80 in all (checkout is $153.30 in state fees, the $35 required expedite and our $199).

Do I need Nebraska's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Arizona wants it ($6.50), no more than 60 days old at filing.

How long does the Arizona registration take?

Typically 5 business days with Arizona's required expedite; Nebraska's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

What are the yearly costs for Nebraska and Arizona?

What if I don't register with Arizona?

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

Does Arizona require a registered agent?

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

Will Arizona accept my Nebraska name?

Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Nebraska name at home.

Can I form a new Arizona LLC instead?

Yes, but Nebraska keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one has no Arizona yearly report, and the original keeps Nebraska's Biennial Report.

How do I withdraw from Arizona later?

Nebraska companies leave by filing Form L026 ($10); until then, both the Arizona registration and Nebraska's filings stay in place.
