The cost to incorporate in Nebraska is $70.00; this filing fee should be sent along with the formation document, the Articles of Incorporation, to the Secretary of State's office for filing.

Forming a corporation creates a separate legal entity, legally separate from its owners (the shareholders, or those who own stock in the corporation). This legal structure provides limited liability protection to those shareholders—one of the benefits of incorporating in Nebraska versus forming an unincorporated entity, such as a sole proprietorship or general partnership.
