From New York to Indiana, step by step

Order the New York certificate
The Certificate of Status ($25) is ordered from New York separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. Mail time from New York counts against Indiana's limit of 60 days, so the order allows for transit.
We prepare and file State Form 56369
It lists us as your Indiana registered agent, next to your New York name and formation date, with the certificate attached. The New York certificate takes days to arrive, so the Indiana filing waits for it. After approval, your New York LLC is registered with Indiana.

Does Indiana require a registered agent?

Can I form a new Indiana LLC instead?

How do I withdraw from Indiana later?

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