How Washington companies register with Oregon

Have the Washington registry number ready
The state checks Washington'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 lists us as your Oregon registered agent, next to your Washington name and formation date. No Washington paperwork holds up the Oregon filing. Once Oregon approves it, the Washington company can do business there.

Your Washington name and Oregon's rules

We search Oregon's records for Washington's name on file before anything is filed.

Agents: Oregon and Washington

Questions Washington owners ask about Oregon

Does my Washington company need to register in Oregon?

Yes, once a Washington business operates there; Oregon law lists 11 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does the Oregon registration cost?

$474 at checkout, with nothing to pay Washington.

Do I need Washington's certificate of good standing?

Not when Oregon can search those records online for free; the application then uses your registry number.

What are the yearly costs for Washington and Oregon?

$494 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $70 to Washington and $275 to Oregon for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oregon?

A Washington company cannot sue in court there until it registers.

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Oregon LLC instead?

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

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

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