What you get with a New Mexico lookup

  • New Mexico SOS entity record — name, status, entity type, formation date, registered agent + address, principal office, and officers/managers where the state exposes them.
  • USDOT / FMCSA carrier verification — for trucking deals, we pull the carrier's authority status, MC#, fleet size, MCS-150 history, and BASIC scores. Auto-matched to the SOS legal name when applicable.
  • OFAC SDN screening — every search runs the company name against the Treasury sanctions list. Clear-result PDFs are signed.
  • DBA / Fictitious Name registries — surfaces the county/town clerk where this entity would file a DBA in New Mexico, plus the statewide registry when one exists.
  • One merged PDF — cover sheet + SOS record + USDOT snapshot + supporting docs, all in a credit-file-ready packet.

How New Mexico files business entities

New Mexico's SOS portal at enterprise.sos.nm.gov exposes a clean REST API returning JSON — one of the easier states for programmatic access. New Mexico is one of only four states with NO annual report requirement for LLCs.

How DBAs work in New Mexico

New Mexico is mixed: Trade Names file at the state SOS for entities, while sole-proprietor trade names file at the county clerk where the business operates. There are 33 counties in New Mexico, each handling its own sole-prop DBAs. The SOS search covers entity-level Trade Names but not the county sole-prop layer.

Credit-underwriting gotchas in New Mexico

New Mexico LLCs file NO annual report — period. Once formed, the entity stays active indefinitely unless dissolved by the members. This makes 'Active' status a weaker signal in NM than in states with annual filings; some New Mexico LLCs sit in 'Active' status for decades after operations ceased. The lack of disclosure requirements has made NM a quiet alternative to Delaware and Wyoming for anonymous LLCs.

Practical New Mexico reference

Filing fees: $50 LLC formation fee + $0 ongoing (no annual report for LLCs)

Officer visibility: Officers, organizers, and registered agents are visible on the public detail page. The REST API returns the same fields in JSON.
