From New Mexico to Indiana, step by step

Order the New Mexico certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing and Compliance is ordered from New Mexico separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. Indiana accepts it within 60 days of New Mexico's issue date, so it is ordered shortly before filing.
We prepare and file State Form 56369
It lists us as your Indiana registered agent, next to your New Mexico name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The New Mexico certificate comes first; then the Indiana filing goes in. Once Indiana approves it, the New Mexico company can do business there.

Indiana costs for New Mexico companies

Item	Amount

How much does it cost to register a New Mexico LLC in Indiana?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), no New Mexico yearly report and Indiana's report ($32, every two years).

What if I don't register with Indiana?

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

Does Indiana require a registered agent?

Yes: the New Mexico registered agent stays, and ours covers Indiana for year one, with a street address there.

Can I form a new Indiana LLC instead?

Yes, but New Mexico keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Indiana's Business Entity Report ($32), and New Mexico has no yearly report for the original.

How do I withdraw from Indiana later?

New Mexico companies leave by filing a Statement of Withdrawal; until then, Indiana's report stays due alongside New Mexico's filings.
