How New Jersey companies register with Alaska

Order the New Jersey certificate
The Standing Certificate ($50) is ordered from New Jersey separately; it is not part of our Alaska order. It comes as a short form ($50) or a long form ($100). Alaska wants the New Jersey 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 New Jersey name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once New Jersey's certificate is in hand, Alaska's filing goes in. Once Alaska approves it, the New Jersey company can do business there.

Will your New Jersey name work for Alaska?

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

Your Alaska agent and the New Jersey one

New Jersey and Alaska both call it a registered agent. Alaska papers come to us; New Jersey's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Alaska and New Jersey

New Jersey wants the Annual Report every year ($75); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, New Jersey to Alaska

A corporation formed in New Jersey files Form 08-414 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same). After that come New Jersey's Annual Report ($75) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Alaska into New Jersey

An LLC formed in Alaska that registers with New Jersey files New Jersey's registration (no form number) with $100 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Compliance ($10). See that filing.

Questions New Jersey owners ask about Alaska

Does my New Jersey company need to register in Alaska?

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

How much does the Alaska registration cost?

$549 at checkout plus $50 to New Jersey for the Standing Certificate, $599 in all (checkout is $350 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need New Jersey's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Alaska wants New Jersey's Standing Certificate ($50), current at filing.

How long does the Alaska registration take?

Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid, once New Jersey's certificate is in hand.

What are the yearly costs for New Jersey and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), New Jersey's report ($75) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

What if I don't register with Alaska?

A New Jersey 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 New Jersey registered agent stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.

Can I form a new Alaska LLC instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

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