HOW TO FORM A FOREIGN CORPORATION OR LLC ONLINE

What is a Foreign Corporation or Foreign LLC?

In the United States, just because you are registered to do business in one state does not mean that you can legally do business in another state.  If you want to transact any serious business in a state other than the state in which your Corporation or LLC is registered, most likely you will have to register with the state in which you want to do business before you can legally conduct business there. 

For example, a Corporation or LLC that is registered in California wants to do business in Nevada.  The California Corporation or LLC is a "Domestic" Corporation or LLC in California and will be a "Foreign" Corporation or LLC in Nevada.

The California Corporation or LLC needs to register with the Nevada Secretary of State as a Nevada Foreign Corporation or LLC.

The use of the term Foreign in this case refers specifically to individual US states.  The US government, including the IRS, considers a Foreign Corporation to be a Corporation that is registered outside of the United States.
