How Vermont companies register with Oklahoma

Order the Vermont certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing ($35) is ordered from Vermont separately; it is not part of our Oklahoma order. Ordered from Vermont on filing day, it easily meets Oklahoma's limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file Form 0081
It lists us as your Oklahoma registered agent, next to your Vermont name and formation date, with the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Vermont delays the Oklahoma filing. After approval, your Vermont LLC is registered with Oklahoma.

Your Vermont name and Oklahoma's rules

We check your exact Vermont name against Oklahoma's records before filing.

Your Oklahoma agent and the Vermont one

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

Yearly filings: Oklahoma and Vermont

Each year your LLC files Vermont's Annual Report ($45) and Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($25). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Vermont plus Oklahoma comes to $219 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Vermont to Oklahoma

A corporation formed in Vermont files Form 0012 with Oklahoma ($312 in state fees, the same). After that come Vermont's Annual Report ($60) and Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($10). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Oklahoma into Vermont

An LLC formed in Oklahoma that registers with Vermont files Vermont's registration (no form number) with $155 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($20) dated within 90 days. See that filing.

What if I don't register with Oklahoma?

Does Oklahoma require a registered agent?

Yes: the Vermont registered agent stays, and ours covers Oklahoma for year one, with a street address there.

Can I form a new Oklahoma LLC instead?

Yes, but Vermont keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oklahoma's Annual Certificate ($26), and the original keeps Vermont's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Oklahoma later?

Vermont companies leave by filing an Application for Withdrawal (Foreign Limited Liability Company) ($100); until then, Oklahoma's report stays due alongside Vermont's filings.
