When you need to register
If your LLC was formed in another state but "transacts business" in Missouri — an office, employees, or regular in-state operations — Missouri generally requires you to register before you do business here. You file Application for Registration of a Foreign Limited Liability Company (paper only) with the Missouri Secretary of State, Corporations Division; see the official fee.
Your home state keeps charging its own fees too, so the true cost is both states added together.
