If the company will operate in New Jersey, a New Jersey certificate is $100 and the yearly report is $75. Forming in another state and then qualifying in New Jersey adds a $100 foreign registration on top of the home state's fees, and the New Jersey annual report still applies. This page does not compare another state's internal fees, because those figures are not on the New Jersey fee schedule.
