North Carolina LLC Foreign Registration in Oregon

Oregon registers an LLC from North Carolina as a foreign LLC on Form 110, with $275 in state fees. Oregon waives the North Carolina Certificate of Existence when it can search those records online for free. We file it with the Secretary of State, Corporation Division using your North Carolina records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

How North Carolina companies register with Oregon

Have the North Carolina registry number ready
The state checks North Carolina's online records instead of a paper certificate when that search is free; otherwise a Certificate of Existence goes in with the filing.
We prepare and file Form 110
It names us as your Oregon registered agent, with your North Carolina name and formation date. No North Carolina paperwork holds up the Oregon filing. Once Oregon approves it, the North Carolina company can do business there.

Will your North Carolina name work for Oregon?

We check your exact North Carolina name against Oregon's records before filing.

Agents: Oregon and North Carolina

How much does it cost to register a North Carolina LLC in Oregon?

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

Yes: the North Carolina registered agent stays, and ours covers Oregon for year one.

Can I form a new Oregon LLC instead?

Yes, but North Carolina keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oregon's Annual Report ($100), and the original keeps North Carolina's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

North Carolina companies leave by filing a Foreign LLC Amendment/Withdrawal ($275); until then, Oregon's report stays due alongside North Carolina's filings.
