How Nebraska companies register with Georgia

We prepare and file Form CD 241
It names us as your Georgia registered agent, with your Nebraska name and formation date. No Nebraska paperwork holds up the Georgia filing. After approval, your Nebraska LLC is registered with Georgia.

Your Nebraska name and Georgia's rules

Georgia can hold a name for 30 days for $25 before you file.

Your Georgia agent and the Nebraska one

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

Do I need Nebraska's certificate of good standing?

No, Georgia takes Form CD 241 without it.

How long does the Georgia registration take?

Georgia's online processing takes about 7 business days; nothing comes from Nebraska first. Paid expedite: 2-business-day $120, same-day $275.

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Nebraska's report ($25, every two years) and Georgia's report ($60).

What if I don't register with Georgia?

A Nebraska company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Georgia can add a penalty of $500.

Does Georgia require a registered agent?

Yes: the Nebraska agent for service of process stays, and ours covers Georgia for year one, with a street address there.

Can I form a new Georgia LLC instead?

Yes, but Nebraska keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Georgia's Annual Registration ($60), and the original keeps Nebraska's Biennial Report.

How do I withdraw from Georgia later?

Nebraska companies leave by filing an Application for Withdrawal of Certificate of Authority; until then, Georgia's report stays due alongside Nebraska's filings.
