Indiana Foreign Corporation Registration -- When Should You File as a Foreign
Corporation in Indiana?

An Indiana foreign corporation registration may be required if your company transacts (or is about to transact) business in Indiana (other than it's original state of formation) to a degree that would require such a filing. "Transacting Business" in a state may include maintaining an office in a particular state for the purpose of transacting business and engaging in business activities that require licensing by a state agency (e.g. mortgage broker, real estate agent, dentist, etc.). You should check with an attorney in order to determine whether you need to register as a foreign corporation in Indiana.
