| DEchecked 2026-07-25 | $214 | $220.00 | Mail-In | 24 Hours | — | Yes | $100 | 1 | Delaware sells amendment turnaround as priced tiers on the fee-schedule row itself: for a domestic LLC 'Amendment – domestic' ($220 filing fee), 24-Hour service is +$100 and Same Day is +$200, with Priority 2 (2-hour) at $500 and Priority 1 (1-hour) at $1000 per document. Foreign LLC amendment is a separate row and is not covered here. |
| FLchecked 2026-07-25 | $35 | $25.00 | online or by mail | ~7-8 weeks per live tracker (varies; non-expedited) | — | No | not_applicable | not_applicable | Florida's Division of Corporations publishes no expedited-service fee anywhere in its fee schedule or its live Document Processing Dates tracker; amendments enter the same non-expedited queue as other filings. The live tracker (updated 07/24/26) shows LLC Amendments, Mergers, Conversions, and Resignations currently being processed against documents received 06/01-06/05/26 -- a real-time backlog reading, not a fixed SLA, that changes with each Division update. Online e-filing is available for changes to an existing business (which includes amendments); mail is a Division-wide accepted channel, confirmed for new-entity filings on the same tracker page. |

| IAchecked 2026-07-25 | $50 | $50.00 | online or by mail | not specified | — | Not observed | $15 | 5 | Iowa's Secretary of State also offers a separate, optional Preclearance review (pre-submission error-check, not a speed-up of the actual filing): Same Day $250, Two Day = 2x the document's filing fee, Three Day = 1x the filing fee; preclearance fees are nonrefundable and not credited toward the actual filing fee. Expedite and preclearance requests are submitted in person or via the Fast Track Filing upload system; same-day preclearance requires receipt by 10:00 AM or it rolls to the next business day. No standard (non-expedited, $0) turnaround figure is published on this page. |
| IDchecked 2026-05-31 | $30 | $30.00 | online or paper | not specified | not specified | Partial | $40 | not specified | Paper filings incur $20 manual processing surcharge; form must be typed. |

| LAchecked 2026-07-25 | $80 | $75.00 | online, mail, fax, or in-person | not specified | — | Yes | $30 | 1 | Louisiana's Commercial Division accepts filings online (geauxBIZ, for original filings/several amendments/annual reports), by regular mail, express mail, fax (225.932.5314), and in-person walk-in at 8585 Archives Ave., Baton Rouge (Mon-Fri, 8am-4:30pm; arrive by 4pm). Corroborates the existing $30/24-hour expedite fee: the walk-in page also lists a faster while-you-wait priority tier at $50 (all expedite fees are in addition to the filing fee). Payment: check/money order/cash (in person only)/credit card (+$5 statutory convenience fee). FOR FUTURE MAINTENANCE: the page states 'Effective October 1, 2026, the fees for the Commercial Division of the Secretary of State will increase in accordance with Act 921 of the 2026 Regular Legislative Session' -- the current $75 llc_fee and $30 expedite_fee on this row are accurate as of this snapshot but are scheduled to change October 1, 2026. |
| MAchecked 2026-07-25 | $100 | $100.00 | paper or fax | mail or hand delivered processing | — | Yes | $10.00 | — | Cannot file electronically. Fee varies by submission method—$100 for mail/hand-delivered; fax filing requires additional $10 expedite fee. |
| MDchecked 2026-07-25 | $100 | $100.00 | online or mail | unspecified | — | Yes | $150 | 7–10 business days | Filing fee is $100; expedited processing costs $150; forms may be filed online via Business Express or by mail/drop box |
| MEchecked 2026-07-25 | $50 | $50.00 | by mail | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $50 | 1 | Maine expedites amendments through a checkbox on the MLLC-9 Customer Contact Cover Letter rather than a separate service: +$50 for 24-hour (next business day) or +$100 for same business day, per entity. Only one expedite fee is charged when several documents for the same entity/charter number are filed together. Expedited-service fees are deposited to a dedicated SoS filing-service fund under 5 MRSA §1680. |
| MIchecked 2026-07-25 | $10 | $25.00 | online or by mail | same day | — | Yes | $5,000.00 | 1 business day or less | Veteran fee waivers may apply; multiple expedited tiers available |
| MNchecked 2026-05-31 | $35 | $35.00 | in-person, online, or by mail | not specified | not specified | Yes | $55 | not specified | Information provided when filing is public data and may be viewable online. |
| MOchecked 2026-07-25 | $27 | $25.00 | online or by mail | not specified | — | No | not_applicable | not_applicable | Missouri recently migrated to 'a new enhanced filing system' that is currently running slower than normal (no ETA published); all customers must create new accounts under the new system. Missouri also offers a separate $55 Preclearance Examination (pre-submission review of proposed documents for sufficiency) -- a document-quality check, not an expedited-processing service. Late annual-report filings incur a $15/30-day fee (a different, non-amendment fact). The 'Amend Articles of Incorporation' instructions cite Section 351.090 RSMo, which is Missouri's CORPORATION amendment statute; the LLC amendment form is a separate, distinct download not tied to that citation. |
| MSchecked 2026-07-25 | $52 | $50.00 | online or by mail | same day-24 hours online; significantly slower for mailed paper | — | Partial | $25 | Not observed | The on-disk MS SOS Business FAQs page has zero mentions of 'expedit' anywhere, consistent with the existing expedite_fee note's own observation that the SOS 'does not appear to publicize an explicit expedited service' beyond the statutory $25 ceiling. The FAQ confirms Mississippi's e-filing system was a mid-2010s modernization (all filings -- new entities, amendments, annual reports, registered-agent changes -- now route through a single logged-in portal) and that paper is only available as a print-after-online-completion hybrid, not a standalone blank form. |
| MTchecked 2026-05-31 | $15 | $15.00 | online | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $20.00 | 1 | Articles of Amendment fee is $15.00; expedite options listed separately under miscellaneous business charges |
| NCchecked 2026-07-25 | $52 | $50.00 | online or mail | few business days | — | Yes | $200 | same‑day or 24‑hour | Not observed |
| NDchecked 2026-05-31 | $20 | $50.00 | online or by mail | Unknown | not_applicable | No | not_applicable | not_applicable | Fees vary by entity type: e.g., LLC amendment domestic = $50; nonprofit articles of amendment = $20; corporate amendment = $20; partnership amendment various amounts; filing options include FirstStop portal and mail. |
| NEchecked 2026-07-25 | $32 | $30.00 | mail or online | 2–3 business days | — | Partial | Not observed | Not observed | Nebraska processes online filings first; online filings include additional $2 e‑delivery fee; expedited processing must be requested by contacting SOS Business Services. |
| NHchecked 2026-07-25 | $35 | $35.00 | online or by mail | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | New Hampshire's LLC Act requires the Secretary of State to provide online filing for 'all forms, certificates, or other documents required under this chapter' (RSA 304-C:28-a), which includes the certificate of amendment (RSA 304-C:34); documents may otherwise be delivered to the SOS office for filing, with RSA 304-C:28(VIII) separately addressing documents 'filed electronically' as an alternative to that general delivery. RSA 304-C:191 (Fees) and RSA 304-C:34 (Amendments) are silent on turnaround/expedited-processing figures -- the entire 304-C chapter (260KB) has zero 'expedite' mentions and the only 'business day' hit is unrelated (a member-information-demand dispute deadline under RSA 304-C:56). The operational NH SOS fees/turnaround page (sos.nh.gov/corporations-0/forms-and-fees) that would normally carry these figures is confirmed down (site-wide 503) as of this snapshot -- a fetch gap, not a confirmed absence of expedited service. |
| NJchecked 2026-07-25 | $75 | $100.00 | online or mail (also in-person or fax) | 10 business days | — | Yes | $25 | 8 business hours | Statutory fee is $100 for amendment (Form L‑102) |

| NVchecked 2026-07-25 | $175 | $175.00 | online or mail-in | same day for online; unspecified for mail-in | — | Yes | $125.00 | 1 day | Expedited services apply only to mail‑in filings; online filings are same‑day with no fee. |
| NYchecked 2026-05-31 | $60 | $60.00 | mail or in‑person (fax also allowed) | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $25 | 1 day | Certificate and payment must be mailed together; expedited envelope must be labeled “Expedited Processing.” Payment separate if by check/money order or noted on credit‑card form. |
| OHchecked 2026-07-25 | $50 | $50.00 | online or by mail | 3–7 business days | — | Yes | $100 | 2 | Ohio prices amendment speed in three tiers above the $50 filing fee: +$100 → 2 business days, +$200 → 1 business day, +$300 → 4 hours. Expedite Service 3 is available only to walk-in customers who hand-deliver to the Client Service Center. Regular service runs approximately 3–7 business days and varies with filing volume. |
| OKchecked 2026-05-31 | $50 | $50.00 | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Amendment fee for LLC (Articles of Amendment) is $50; for foreign corporation certificate of qualification amendment is $200 (or $10 if only mailing address change); amendments effective upon filing; no separate expedite option. |

Online payments incur a convenience fee; paper/mail avoids the convenience fee; cash accepted only in walk‑in. |
| TXchecked 2026-05-31 | $150 | $150.00 | by mail or delivered in person | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $750 | same‑day if received by noon, next‑day service, or 2‑3 business days for standard expedited | Submit in duplicate; must include cover specifically requesting expedited processing for expedited service. |
| UTchecked 2026-07-25 | $43 | $17.00 | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $75 | Not observed | Utah charges a flat $75-per-filing expedited processing fee from its annual fee schedule rather than a document-specific expedite ladder; the fee line is office-wide and carries no published turnaround commitment. |
| VAchecked 2026-07-25 | $25 | $25.00 | online or by mail | Not observed | Not observed | Partial | Not observed | Not observed | Virginia gates expediting by channel rather than by document: the SCC Forms and Fees page states that most forms can be processed online and that paper submissions do not qualify for expedited services at all. The expedite fee and turnaround live on a separate SCC 'Online Expedited Services' page that is not in the snapshot corpus. |
| VTchecked 2026-07-25 | $25 | $35.00 | Not observed | Not observed | Not observed | No | not_applicable | not_applicable | Vermont's consolidated SoS fees page prices the domestic-LLC 'Articles of Amendment' at $35.00 (11 V.S.A. § 4024, within the 'DOMESTIC LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY' / 11 V.S.A. Chapter 25 accordion) with no additional expedited-processing tier published anywhere on the page -- the same consolidated schedule covers foreign-law, professional, low-profit, and blockchain-based LLC variants plus corporation/LP/LLP/nonprofit filings, and none of those entity tables lists an expedite line either. The page is a pure fee table (filing name / statute cite / fee / statute cite) with no narrative on standard turnaround or filing channel for amendments; those remain unresolved from this source. |
| WAchecked 2026-07-25 | $30 | $30.00 | online or mail | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $100.00 | 3 | Make checks or money orders payable to “Secretary of State.” All filing fees are non‑refundable. |
| WIchecked 2026-07-25 | $40 | $40.00 | by mail | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $100 | 1 | Wisconsin's $100 next-day expedite is a uniform line across every domestic entity column on the DFI fee table, not an LLC-specific charge; walk-in counter service in Madison buys four-hour ($250) or one-hour ($500) processing. Domestic 'Amendment or Restatement' is $40 in the Domestic Entities table, separate from the Foreign Entities table. |
| WVchecked 2026-07-25 | $25 | $25.00 | online or by mail | Not observed | Not observed | Yes | $25.00 | 1 | West Virginia offers expedited business filings in 24-hour, 2-hour and 1-hour tiers, priced office-wide rather than per document, and adds a $1.00 portal fee to anything filed through Business4WV.com. The tier amounts on the archived fee schedule are from a 2022-12-23 capture and were not treated as current. |
| WYchecked 2026-05-31 | $60 | $60.00 | by mail | up to 15 business days | not_applicable | No | not_applicable | not_applicable | Not observed |

What this matrix covers
Each row is a U.S. jurisdiction (50 states plus the District of Columbia). Articles of amendment change information in an entity's original formation document — most commonly the entity name. The llc_fee and corp_fee columns hold the state filing fee for each entity type, with standard turnaround and expedite options recorded where the state publishes them.
How to read this matrix
In most states a name change is filed as an amendment, so the amendment fee here is the fee for a name change; where a separate form applies it is noted on the row. A typed unknown such as “Not observed” means the state's published materials did not state that field — a methodological limit, not a confirmed absence. Forty-four rows are backed by a captured snapshot; seven rows carry a source-chain flag (typed_unknown) because the official source URL has expired or could not be reached — those rows show fee values from prior verification pending re-sourcing. Confirm against the linked source before filing. Method notes live at /about/methodology/.

Frequently asked questions
What does an amendment filing cover?
Articles of amendment change information in an entity's original formation document — most commonly the entity name, but also purpose, management structure, or other registered details. The matrix tracks the state filing fee for LLCs and corporations separately, since several states price them differently.
Is changing my LLC's name the same as an amendment?
In most states a name change is filed as articles of amendment, so the amendment fee in this matrix is the fee for a name change. A handful of states use a separate form; where the filing differs, it is noted in the row.
What do the expedite columns mean?
Where a state offers faster processing for an additional charge, expedite_available is marked and the surcharge and turnaround are recorded. A typed unknown such as "Not observed" means the state's published materials did not state that field — it is a methodological limit, not a confirmed absence.
