Good to know
Forming a Nebraska LLC from abroad
Who can form a Nebraska LLC
Anyone. Nebraska does not ask members or managers of an LLC to be US citizens or residents, and you do not need to travel to the United States. What the state does require is a registered agent with a street address in Nebraska, which is part of every order with us.
How the filing works
A Nebraska LLC comes into existence when the state accepts the Certificate of Organization. We prepare and file it for you within 48 hours of your payment. The state usually needs 1–2 weeks (publication required) after that. The state filing fee is $102, passed on at cost.
What it costs each year
Every year Nebraska asks for: Biennial report $13. We put the date in your compliance calendar and remind you ahead of time. With us, only the registered agent renews, at $45 a year.
Taxes in Nebraska
Nebraska has a state income tax, but it applies to income connected to the state. A foreign-owned LLC with no office, staff or customers in Nebraska often has little or no state tax to pay; federal reporting to the IRS applies in every state. This is general information, not tax advice.
Newspaper publication: you arrange this yourself
After formation, Nebraska requires the LLC to publish a notice of organization in a legal newspaper in Lancaster County once a week for three consecutive weeks. The newspaper then sends a proof of publication, which is filed with the Nebraska Secretary of State. The newspaper sets its own price. This is not included in our service or price: the founder arranges and pays for the publication directly with the newspapers. Skipping it leaves the LLC out of compliance with Nebraska law.
