Utah foreign LLC registration fee and rules, as written by the state
An LLC from another state has to register in Utah before doing business here. You file the Foreign registration statement (foreign limited liability company) with the Utah Division of Corporations and Commercial Code and pay $59. Send along certificate of existence not older than 90 days.
Operating without registering can mean no access to Utah courts as plaintiff (Utah Code 16-1a-503(2)).
Skip the services and Utah still collects $95 across three years, while you fill out every form. Hiring help costs $397 to $497.
