Foreign LLC filings with their fees

Filing	Form	State fee
Registration of a foreign LLC	Form FLLC-1	$100
Registration of a foreign professional LLC	Form FPLLC-1	$100

Fees received electronically carry a $2 handling charge under RSA 5:10-a. A plan of merger for a foreign LLC that does not involve a New Hampshire LLC costs $35.

The charge from another agency

Closing a registration needs a statement for withdrawal from the Department of Revenue Administration, for which the statute sets a nonrefundable $30. That charge is separate from the Secretary of State's $35, which is why the exit totals $65.

Foreign corporation	Form 40	$100

Faster handling, and a dated notice

The Secretary of State lets a filing that is pending on hold be expedited in person in the Customer Lobby for $25 more. On its QuickStart page, the office announced that, as of October 13, 2026, processing for business filings may run up to 5 business days. The announcement is dated and will change. It also says local registered agent providers in Concord can arrange the in-person step and advance the fee.

What the state schedule leaves out

It does not cover the home state's charge for any good standing record you want to see for your own file, an agent's fee, or New Hampshire business taxes. The statute notes that nothing in its list of exempt activities limits taxation, so the Department of Revenue Administration may look at a company the Secretary of State does not require to register. An accountant can say how those taxes apply.

What our fee covers

For $199 we handle drafting the seven articles from your answers, checking the agent and the signer against the instructions, and submitting by the route you choose. A New Hampshire resident agent from us is already paid in the fee for year one, renewal shown when you order. Our fee lowers no state fee. The steps for filing it yourself are in the self-filing steps.

Reinstatement after a revocation

Reinstating a revoked registration takes a reinstatement form with the fees in arrears at the time of revocation. A report that is only late, not revoked, costs the $50 late fee on top of the $100 report, which is $150 in all.

Why the yearly fee matters more than the entry fee

The entry fee is paid once. The report fee comes back every year, and a late one adds $50. Over five years of reporting the report fees alone outweigh the registration several times over, so a company with little New Hampshire business should think about whether to keep the registration. The cancellation page compares the options.

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.
