Texas LLC Foreign Registration in Indiana
Indiana registers an LLC from Texas as a foreign LLC on State Form 56369, with $105 in state fees. Indiana also asks for Texas's Certificate of Fact - Status ($15), no older than 60 days. We file it with the Secretary of State, Business Services Division using your Texas records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

From Texas to Indiana, step by step
Order the Texas certificate
The Certificate of Fact - Status ($15) is ordered from Texas separately; it is not part of our Indiana order. An instant Texas certificate reaches Indiana only hours old, well inside the limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file State Form 56369
It lists us as your Indiana registered agent, next to your Texas name and formation date, with the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Texas delays the Indiana filing. After approval, your Texas LLC is registered with Indiana.

Common questions: Texas to Indiana
Does my Texas company need to register in Indiana?
Yes, once a Texas business operates there; Indiana law lists 12 activities that do not count on their own.
How much does the Indiana registration cost?
$304 at checkout plus $15 to Texas for the Certificate of Fact - Status, $319 in all (checkout is $105 in state fees plus our $199).
Do I need Texas's certificate of good standing?
Yes: Indiana wants Texas's Certificate of Fact - Status ($15), no more than 60 days old at filing.
What are the yearly costs for Texas and Indiana?
Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Texas's report (fee set by the state) and Indiana's report ($32, every two years).
What if I don't register with Indiana?
A Texas 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 Texas 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 Texas keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Indiana's Business Entity Report ($32), and the original keeps Texas's yearly report.
How do I withdraw from Indiana later?
Texas companies leave by filing a Statement of Withdrawal; until then, Indiana's report stays due alongside Texas's filings.
