Our Model

Why we can charge less than most national providers

01 — Direct Filing

We file directly with state offices. No reseller layers, no affiliate commissions baked into your renewal. The savings go to you, not a referral chain.

02 — No Upsell Pressure

In our opinion, registered agent pricing at larger national providers is structured to subsidize upsell products. We do not operate that way. Registered agent service is the product.

03 — Privacy-First Model

We value your privacy because we value ours. Our business does not monetize your data, resell your contact information, or partner with third parties that do. Keeping your information private is core to how we operate.

It depends on the provider. Some providers include mail forwarding at no extra cost; others charge separately for scanning or forwarding services. State LLC Service includes mail forwarding in all plans at no added cost where available.
Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) filing requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act have seen significant legal activity. Not all registered agent services assist with BOI filings. Check each provider's current service descriptions for the most accurate information.
Yes. Switching a registered agent is a straightforward state filing in most states and does not affect your LLC's good standing. Most switches can be completed in a single business day. State LLC Service handles the switch filing for you.
In our opinion, large national providers carry significant overhead from call centers, affiliate commissions, and upsell infrastructure. State LLC Service operates with a direct-filing model, no affiliate pressure, and a privacy-first approach that keeps costs low and passes savings directly to clients.
They are the same thing. Registered agent and statutory agent are interchangeable terms. Both refer to the person or business entity designated to receive legal documents and official state notices on behalf of your LLC.
Yes. Your registered agent's address is listed on state public records. Using a professional registered agent service means your personal home address does not appear on state filings. This is one of the key privacy benefits of using a service rather than acting as your own registered agent.
No. The $99 per year price from State LLC Service is the standard annual rate, not an introductory offer. Some competitors advertise a low first-year price and then increase rates significantly in year two and beyond. State LLC Service's pricing page lists the current flat rate with no stated escalation.
