Oklahoma Foreign Registration › Cost
What an Oklahoma foreign LLC pays, from registration to exit
An Oklahoma foreign LLC pays $300 to register, $25 each year for the annual certificate, and $100 to withdraw. Our charge for preparing and filing Form 0081 is $199, shown at checkout apart from the state's amounts.
Every Oklahoma charge a registered foreign LLC meets
| Filing | Fee |
|---|---|
| Registration | $300 |
| Annual certificate, each year | $25 |
| Amended or corrected application | $100 |
| Amendment for a mailing address change only | $10 |
| Change of registered agent or office | $25 |
| Resignation of a registered agent | $25 |
| Reinstatement after a lapse | no fee |
| Application for withdrawal | $100 |
The reinstatement application carries no fee of its own, but every missed annual certificate and its fee must be attached to it.
First filing for other kinds of entity
| Entity | Fee | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Business corporation | $300 | Minimum; rises with invested capital |
| Nonprofit corporation | $300 | Certificate of qualification |
| Limited partnership | $300 | Annual certificate $50 |
| Limited liability partnership | $100 | SOS Form 0096 |
A corporation's fee scales with the capital it plans to invest in Oklahoma, but never falls under $300 and is never figured on more than its authorized capital.
How the fee is set
The LLC chapter sets a foreign LLC's application for registration at $300, an application for withdrawal at $100, a correction of the application at $100 and a change of registered agent or address at $25. The Secretary of State's schedule repeats those figures, so there is nothing to reconcile. The annual certificate fee is in its own section, $25, due every year while the registration lasts.

| Wyoming-formed LLC, year one with its annual minimum | $360 | $300 + $60 |
Paying with a card
A card is accepted in person and online, and the Secretary of State adds 4 percent to the payment. On a $300 filing that is an extra $12. A check or money order carries no such charge.
The costs that come back every year
After the registration fee the LLC pays $25 on each anniversary. Over the first three anniversaries that adds up to $375 in state charges, counting the registration. Beyond the registration, the annual certificate is the only repeating Secretary of State filing the LLC faces.
Costs the schedule does not include
Only Secretary of State filings appear on the schedule. An agent's own fee and the home state's certificate fee sit outside it. If the Secretary of State has to act as your agent because none was appointed, it charges $40 each July 1; appointing an additional agent means that fee is not due. The Oklahoma tax rules are separate too, and the statute says its list of non-qualifying activities does not decide what the state can tax.
Paying the state
The Secretary of State accepts a card in person or online, with a service charge of 4 percent added. Same-day handling when you deliver a document in person is $25 extra per document. Those are the state's add-ons, and ordering through us lets us handle them for you.
What our fee covers
The $199 charge covers turning your answers into the application, checking the certificate date against the limit, verifying the agent entry and sending the filing in. For comparison, the do-it-yourself page walks through filing alone.
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.
