Foreign registration · Form 110

Wisconsin LLC Foreign Registration in Oregon

An LLC formed in Wisconsin that wants to do business in Oregon files Form 110, with $275 in state fees. Oregon waives the Wisconsin Certificate of Status when it can search those records online for free. We file it with the Secretary of State, Corporation Division using your Wisconsin records and act as your registered agent there for the first year.

From Wisconsin to Oregon, step by step

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

Will your Wisconsin name work for Oregon?

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

Your Oregon agent and the Wisconsin one

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

Yearly filings: Oregon and Wisconsin

Each year your LLC files Wisconsin's Annual Report (Form 5 / CORP5) ($25) and Oregon's Annual Report ($275). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Wisconsin plus Oregon comes to $449 a year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Wisconsin to Oregon

A corporation formed in Wisconsin files Form 50 with Oregon ($275 in state fees, the same). After that come Wisconsin's Domestic Business Corporation Annual Report ($25) and Oregon's Annual Report ($275). See the corporation filing.

Registering an Oregon company in Wisconsin

An LLC formed in Oregon that registers with Wisconsin files Form 521 with $100 in state fees; no Oregon certificate is needed. See that filing.

Questions Wisconsin owners ask about Oregon

Does my Wisconsin company need to register in Oregon?

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

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

$474 at checkout, with nothing to pay Wisconsin.

Do I need Wisconsin'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 Wisconsin and Oregon?

$449 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $25 to Wisconsin and $275 to Oregon for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Oregon?

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

Does Oregon require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Oregon LLC instead?

Yes, but Wisconsin keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Oregon's Annual Report ($100), and the original keeps Wisconsin's Annual Report (Form 5 / CORP5).

How do I withdraw from Oregon later?

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