How much are you paying each year for your registered agent?

$99/yr with a local CPA firm that also does my LLC's annual report. They're not a registered agent specialist but they're responsive and it's one less login to remember.

I use a service that bundles it with my virtual address for $240/yr total. If I were pyaing that just for RA I'd be annoyed, but the mail scanning is genuinely useful.

Wait, you guys are paying for registered agents? I thought the $49 first-year promo just... renewed at that price forever. It did not.

@GroutHound yeah the promo pricing is basically a hook.My first year was $39 and the renewal jumped to $119. That's when I moved it.

Haven't paid in years. I'm the registered agent for my own LLC. It's a single-member and I don't mind my address being on file in that state. I realize that defeats the purpose for a lot of people on this board though.

I was paying $125/yr but switched to a local business that charges $75. The catch is they only work with clients who use their virtual office or have another service with them. So the RA fee isn't really the whole cost.

Appreciate the range so far. @plaidnd i get the logic for some people, but my whole point in having an LLC in another state is to keep my name off the state's public registry, so self-agenting isn't an option.

$0. I'm registered agent for a holding company and the entity itself is The RA for the operating LLC. It's a nested arrangement my lawyer set up. Probably overkill for most here.

Currently $110/yr through a small firm in Wyoming. Called around and got quotes from $60 to $300. The $300 was one of the big names that also does formations. The fee difference didn't seem to correlate with anything except marketing budget.

Anyone else notice the yearly "compliance" emails from these big RA services are basically just upsells? Half the time I can't tell if it's a legal requirement or a suggestion to buy their $79 document vault.

Yes, @GroutHound. I switched away from one specifically because they sent me three "urgent" emails about a state filing deadline and then tried to charge me $199 to 'handle' it. The state fee was $25 and the form was one page.

My old RA actually missed forwarding a service of process notice for two weeks. Didn't cost me anything in the end but that's the kind of thing that makes me fine paying a bit more for someone who answers the phone. Price isn't everything.

That last point is what's bugging me about switching just on price. The $149 I'm paying now has been reliable. The $75 local option might be great until something needs to be handled quickly and there's no after-hours process.
