Nevada LLC Foreign Registration in Idaho

To do business in Idaho, an LLC formed in Nevada registers there on an online registration (no form number), with $103.50 in state fees. Idaho also wants Nevada's Certificate of Existence ($50), dated within 90 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Services from your Nevada records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

From Nevada to Idaho, step by step

Order the Nevada certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($50) is ordered from Nevada separately; it is not part of our Idaho order. Idaho accepts it within 90 days of Nevada's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Idaho registered agent, next to your Nevada name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The Nevada certificate comes first; then the Idaho filing goes in. Once Idaho approves it, the Nevada company can do business there.

Will your Nevada name work for Idaho?

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

Agents: Idaho and Nevada

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

Staying in good standing in Nevada and Idaho

Each year your LLC files Nevada's periodic report ($350) and Idaho's Annual Report (no fee). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Nevada plus Idaho comes to $499 a year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Nevada to Idaho

A corporation formed in Nevada files its own registration with Idaho ($103.50 in state fees, the same). After that come Nevada's Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent and Idaho's Annual Report (no fee). See the corporation filing.

Registering an Idaho company in Nevada

An LLC formed in Idaho that registers with Nevada files Nevada's registration (no form number) with $425 in state fees; no Idaho certificate is needed. See that filing.

Questions Nevada owners ask about Idaho

Does my Nevada company need to register in Idaho?

Yes, once a Nevada business operates there; Idaho law lists 11 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does the Idaho registration cost?

$302.50 at checkout plus $50 to Nevada for the Certificate of Existence, $352.50 in all (checkout is $103.50 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Nevada's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Idaho wants Nevada's Certificate of Existence ($50), no more than 90 days old at filing.

How long does the Idaho registration take?

Idaho's standard processing takes about 3 to 5 days from the date of filing, once Nevada's certificate is in hand. Paid expedite: $40.

What are the yearly costs for Nevada and Idaho?

$499 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $350 to Nevada and nothing to Idaho for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Idaho?

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

Does Idaho require a registered agent?

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

Will Idaho accept my Nevada name?

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

Can I form a new Idaho LLC instead?

Yes, but Nevada keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Idaho's Annual Report (no fee), and the original keeps Nevada's periodic report.

How do I withdraw from Idaho later?

Nevada companies leave by filing a Withdrawal of Foreign Registration Statement ($20); until then, Idaho's report stays due alongside Nevada's filings.
