Oregon LLC Foreign Registration in Alaska

Alaska registers an LLC from Oregon as a foreign LLC on Form 08-0497, with $350 in state fees. Alaska also wants Oregon's Certificate of Existence ($10). We file it with the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing from your Oregon records, then serve as your registered agent there for year one.

How Oregon companies register with Alaska

Order the Oregon certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($10) is ordered from Oregon separately; it is not part of our Alaska order. Alaska wants the Oregon certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file Form 08-0497
It names us as your Alaska registered agent, with your Oregon name and formation date and the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Oregon delays the Alaska filing. Once Alaska approves it, the Oregon company can do business there.

Your Oregon name and Alaska's rules

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

Agents: Alaska and Oregon

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

Yearly filings: Alaska and Oregon

Oregon wants the Annual Report every year ($100); Alaska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($200). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Oregon to Alaska

A corporation formed in Oregon files Form 08-414 with Alaska ($350 in state fees, the same). After that come Oregon's Annual Report ($100) and Alaska's Biennial Report ($200). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Alaska into Oregon

An LLC formed in Alaska that registers with Oregon files Form 110 with $275 in state fees; no Alaska certificate is needed. See that filing.

Questions Oregon owners ask about Alaska

Does my Oregon company need to register in Alaska?

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

How much does it cost to register an Oregon LLC in Alaska?

$549 at checkout plus $10 to Oregon for the Certificate of Existence, $559 in all (checkout is $350 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Oregon's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Alaska wants Oregon's Certificate of Existence ($10), current at filing.

How long does the Alaska registration take?

Alaska says online filings post as soon as they are paid; Oregon's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

What are the yearly costs for Oregon and Alaska?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Oregon's report ($100) and Alaska's report ($200, every two years).

What if I don't register with Alaska?

An Oregon 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 Oregon registered agent stays, and ours covers Alaska for year one.

Can I form a new Alaska LLC instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Alaska later?

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