Reinstate an LLC in New Hampshire: a hundred thirty-five per year of drift.
The company lapsed, the state acted, and now the way back runs through the Secretary of State: the reinstatement application, $135 per dissolved year, plus the catch-up the state expects. New Hampshire meters the comeback by the year and closes it at three. Here is the whole comeback, in order, and how to make sure there is never a second one.
The reinstatement prepared and filed with the state, back filings caught up, so the company returns with clean standing.
Four facts cover the whole system
The filing that restores a lapsed company to the record: the reinstatement application, $135 per dissolved year, with the Secretary of State, alongside whatever the state requires caught up. Standing returns when it is accepted; the company continues rather than starting over. We prepare and file it →
New Hampshire prices its comeback annually: $135 for each year the company sat dissolved, inside a three-year window. The subtraction state made the cost of drift precisely linear, one forgotten April is $135, three is $405 and the end of the road.
The reinstatement at $135 per dissolved year, with the lapsed April reports brought current, filed inside the three-year window that also caps the meter.
The state side starts at $135 per dissolved year for the reinstatement application, plus the back filings and their fees. When we handle it, the total is the state fees plus a transaction fee plus our service fee, one-time, itemized on the pricing page before you pay, with the back filings prepared and the recurring deadline put on autopilot so the lapse never repeats.

Four steps back, and one that keeps you back
New Hampshire’s comeback runs in sequence: confirm the status, cure the cause, catch up the filings, then the reinstatement application for $135 per dissolved year with the Secretary of State. The window matters here, three years from the administrative dissolution, then the option ends. Done in order, standing returns and the record moves on.
Where you stand decides what you do next
Move while the cure is simple: we prepare and file the reinstatement with the back filings caught up, and the company returns with clean standing.
Banks and counterparties see the lapsed status until the cure files, and nothing else about the company has actually changed. The catch-up-plus-application path is the fastest route back to a clean record; we expedite exactly this situation routinely.
The deadline that started this never stops coming. Put the recurring filing on autopilot and the lapse never repeats.
Each year cost $135, and the third year was the last
The Manchester company drifted past two Aprils, and New Hampshire’s arithmetic was crisp: $270 of reinstatement metering, with one year left before the option expired entirely. The lean state prices even its mercy per annum. New Hampshire’s meter is honest and its wall is real. We paid at year two.

How do I reinstate an LLC in New Hampshire?
Cure the cause, catch up the filings, and submit the reinstatement application with the Secretary of State, $135 per dissolved year plus the back fees. Standing returns when it is accepted, and the company continues rather than starting over. We handle the whole sequence as part of reinstatement service.
How much does it cost to reinstate a New Hampshire LLC?
The application is $135 per dissolved year, plus the back filings and their fees, the real total depends on how long the lapse ran. When we handle it, the total is the state fees plus a transaction fee plus our service fee, one-time, itemized on the pricing page before you pay, with the back filings prepared and the recurring deadline put on autopilot so the lapse never repeats.
Does New Hampshire require tax clearance to reinstate?
No: New Hampshire adds no tax-clearance step to the reinstatement, the application and the back filings carry it. Final accuracy still matters, the state cross-checks what you owe, which is why we prepare the catch-up filings together with the application.
How long do I have to reinstate my New Hampshire LLC?
Three years from the administrative dissolution, then the option ends.
Should I reinstate or just form a new LLC?
Reinstate, in most cases: the cure preserves the formation date, the EIN, the contracts, the name, and the history, while a new entity resets all of it and leaves the old company’s loose ends dangling. Re-forming only wins when the back fees exceed the value of continuity, we run that math with you before filing either way.
What should I do after the company is reinstated?
Confirm the standing shows clean on the record, tell the bank and any counterparties who saw the lapse, and put the recurring deadline on autopilot, the filing that started this comes due again on schedule, and the second lapse is never cheaper than the first.
Can File.Business reinstate my New Hampshire LLC for me?

When we handle it, the total is the state fees plus a transaction fee plus our service fee, one-time, itemized on the pricing page before you pay, with the back filings prepared and the recurring deadline put on autopilot so the lapse never repeats.
