Nebraska Foreign Registration / Wyoming LLCs

Wyoming LLC registration in Nebraska: certificate, agent and totals

A Wyoming LLC pays Nebraska $100 online plus $10 for the certificate, and Wyoming $60 for its yearly minimum, so the first Nebraska year totals $170. The original certificate of existence that Nebraska requires is free online from Wyoming.

The two states side by side

Item	Wyoming	Nebraska
Yearly	$60 minimum report	Biennial report in odd years
Certificate	Free online	Original certificate of existence
Filing	Already formed	$100 online or $110 in office
Agent	A Wyoming agent on file	A separate Nebraska agent

A free source for the original

Because Wyoming issues the certificate online at no charge, a stale one can simply be replaced. Print it close to the filing day. If the annual report is behind, file it before ordering, since the certificate speaks to whether the LLC is in good order.

The Nebraska agent

Wyoming's registered agent cannot simply be reused. Nebraska needs a member of the entity or a designated third party who lives in Nebraska, or a corporation authorized to transact business in Nebraska, with an office identical to the registered office.

Completing the Nebraska application

Enter Wyoming as the state of organization. Describe only the Nebraska activity on the business line. If Wyoming law makes the LLC keep an office at home, put that address on the home-office line, and otherwise leave it empty. An authorized representative signs.

What the first year costs

Nebraska's online registration is $110 with the certificate line. Add Wyoming's $60 and the year totals $170. A Delaware LLC in the same spot owes $510, because Delaware's tax is $400, so the home-state charge alone explains the difference. Our fee of $199 is additional.

Public record, whatever the home state

Wyoming's reputation for privacy stops at its border. The Nebraska application is public, and the agent's address and the principal office become part of the record. Decide which addresses to disclose before filing.

Case: a Wyoming LLC that opens a Lincoln storefront

Take a Wyoming LLC that leases a storefront in Lincoln and puts employees in it. Staffed premises amount to continuing business, so registration follows. It prints the free Wyoming certificate, appoints a Lincoln agent company and files online for $100 plus the certificate line. Afterwards only the $60 Wyoming minimum recurs every year, and Nebraska asks for a report in odd years.

Order of work

Confirm Wyoming standing, pick the Nebraska agent and start the name inquiry. Collect the answers, then print the certificate and get the signature on the same day before submitting. A free certificate costs nothing to print again if a signature slips.

When Wyoming standing slips

A lapse in Wyoming leaves the Nebraska authority resting on a certificate that no longer describes the company. Nebraska does not let a revoked foreign LLC reinstate, so the repair is a new application. Keep an eye on the Wyoming report date.

Wyoming and the report years

A Wyoming LLC sees its first Nebraska report two years out after an odd-year grant, one year out after an even-year grant. Wyoming's own yearly minimum keeps recurring in the meantime.

The agent address

The Nebraska agent block has the state printed as NE, with the agent's name and Nebraska street address. The office speaks of an agent's office and not a mailbox.

Holding companies

When a Wyoming holding company's only Nebraska ties are an account, borrowing or a stake in an operating LLC, it stays outside the registration rule, though owning income-producing property itself does not.

Wyoming corporations and nonprofits

A Wyoming corporation applies for $100 online and a nonprofit for $25, both on the corporation page. A corporation reports in even-numbered years.

Leaving Nebraska

A notice of cancellation costs $25 online. Wyoming's report continues. See the cancellation page.

Keeping the papers together

Keep the printed Wyoming certificate, the filed Nebraska application, the agent's engagement letter and a note of the date the first biennial window opens in one folder.

Wyoming and the Nebraska biennial rhythm

Wyoming wants a report every year and Nebraska every other. Put both on one calendar. In odd-numbered years Nebraska's window runs January 1 to April 1, and Wyoming's own date falls separately, so each needs its own reminder.

Members and ownership

The Nebraska application asks for no member information, so a Wyoming LLC's ownership does not change the form.

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.
