North Carolina Foreign Registration About
About North Carolina Foreign Registration
North Carolina Foreign Registration registers companies formed in other states with the North Carolina Secretary of State: LLCs, corporations, nonprofits, limited partnerships and registered LLPs, with rush options when a date matters.
How an order goes
You give us the company's details once. From there we match the entity to its state form, request the home-state certificate, arrange the North Carolina agent (we can be that agent), attach any rush option you picked and file electronically. When the state issues the certificate, we send it on to you.
What we do not do
Tax questions, and the call on whether your activity requires registration at all, are not ours to answer. Those belong with a North Carolina lawyer and your accountant.
Getting in touch
We list our email address on the contact page.
Fixed fee, state fees at cost
- The state form for your entity type, completed from your answers
- An original certificate of existence from your home state, requested for you
- Filed electronically with the Business Registration Division in Raleigh
- A North Carolina registered agent: ours, or the one you pick
- Your issued certificate and the date of your first April 15 report
- Renewal: after the first year, the agent service renews at $149 a year
State filing fees and any rush option are charged at cost and listed apart from our fee. $199 plus the state fee, including your first year of registered agent service; after that the agent service renews at $149 a year.
