Where the certificate line fits
The schedule prints the foreign LLC filing as $110 in the office or $100 online, plus $10 for the certificate. Taken literally, an online registration is $110 in state charges and an in-office one is $120. We confirm the total on the filing day.

Agent and address changes
A statement of change is $25 online and $30 in the office, whether it moves the principal office, the agent or the agent's address. The agent's own filings are priced apart: $30 when an LLC's agent changes its office address, and $30 for the agent's statement of resignation.
If the authority is revoked
A foreign LLC cannot file for reinstatement. It applies again for a certificate of authority, which means a new original certificate of existence and the $110 online total again.
Paying online after the system change
When the new filing system goes live, fees are paid at submission by credit card, ACH or a frequent payor account. A card payment adds $1.75 plus 2.49 percent of the cart, and an ACH payment adds $1.75. Those are the office's processing charges, not the filing fee, and they apply to the online route only. A frequent payor account lets a regular filer deposit funds in advance.
Correcting a filed biennial report
Nebraska reports every second year for an LLC. The state prints $30 to amend or correct a filed biennial report, one form and one fee for each report.
What our fee covers
For $199 we complete the application from your answers, confirm that the certificate is an original, check the agent and the office, collect the signature and submit the filing through the channel you choose. We can serve as your Nebraska agent, or you can name another on the order. Our charge never lowers a state fee. If you are weighing the alternative, the self-filing page lays out the work.
What the schedule does not include
The schedule covers only what the Secretary of State collects. It does not cover the home-state charge for the certificate of existence, an agent's fee, or Nebraska taxes, and it does not price a certificate of good standing, which is ordered separately. The certificate of existence you buy at home is the one outside cost every foreign LLC carries.
Choosing between the two rates
On small filings the office charges $30 against $25 online, and on the registration itself $110 against $100. Choose the channel that fits the papers you have.
Registered agent: first year included, then $149 a year
$199 plus the state fee, including your first year of registered agent service; after that the agent service renews at $149 a year.
