How Wyoming companies register with Nebraska

Order the Wyoming certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing (free) is ordered from Wyoming separately; it is not part of our Nebraska order. Nebraska wants the Wyoming certificate current, so it is ordered close to the filing date.
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Nebraska agent for service of process, next to your Wyoming name and formation date, with the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Wyoming delays the Nebraska filing. Once Nebraska approves it, the Wyoming company can do business there.

Will your Wyoming name work for Nebraska?

If Nebraska's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Wyoming company. We search Nebraska's records for Wyoming's name on file before anything is filed.

Agents: Nebraska and Wyoming

Nebraska calls it an agent for service of process; Wyoming says registered agent. Nebraska papers come to us; Wyoming's agent is unchanged.

Staying in good standing in Wyoming and Nebraska

Wyoming wants the Annual Report every year ($61.44); Nebraska wants the Biennial Report every two years ($25). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Wyoming to Nebraska

A corporation formed in Wyoming files its own registration with Nebraska ($110 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Good Standing (free)). After that come Wyoming's Annual Report ($60) and Nebraska's Biennial Report ($52). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Nebraska into Wyoming

An LLC formed in Nebraska that registers with Wyoming files Wyoming's registration (no form number) with $150 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($6.50) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Wyoming owners ask about Nebraska

Does my Wyoming company need to register in Nebraska?

Yes, once a Wyoming business operates there; Nebraska does not count a one-off deal finished within 30 days.

How much does it cost to register a Wyoming LLC in Nebraska?

$309 at checkout, plus Wyoming's Certificate of Good Standing, which is free.

Do I need Wyoming's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Nebraska wants it (free), current at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Wyoming and Nebraska?

Our agent for service of process renewal ($149 a year), Wyoming's report ($61.44) and Nebraska's report ($25, every two years).

What if I don't register with Nebraska?

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

Does Nebraska require a registered agent?

Yes: the Wyoming registered agent stays, and ours covers Nebraska for year one.

Will Nebraska accept my Wyoming name?

Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Wyoming name at home.

Can I form a new Nebraska LLC instead?

Yes, but Wyoming keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nebraska's Biennial Report ($25), and the original keeps Wyoming's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Nebraska later?

Wyoming companies leave by filing a Notice of Cancellation of Foreign Limited Liability Company Certificate of Authority; until then, Nebraska's report stays due alongside Wyoming's filings.
