Pennsylvania Registered Agent Pricing — $99/year, Complete Coverage
For $99 a year, get a Pennsylvania agent with a registered address on file, same-day scanning of legal documents, and compliance reminders before state deadlines.
Professional registered agent service should not cost $300. In Pennsylvania, where the annual report is only $7, paying hundreds for an agent makes even less sense. Our annual price is $99, and hunting for the cheapest registered agent service Pennsylvania has means checking that the annual price you see is the whole story. Ours is.
What It Costs Beyond Registered Agent Service
Some customers only need the agent service; others want us to handle the whole Pennsylvania formation. Either way, here are the numbers. Our fee and the state's fee sit in separate columns, so nothing hides inside a bundle.
| Service | Our fee | State fee | You pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Registered Agent billed per year | $99 | None | $99/yr |
| LLC Formation one-time filing Free Pennsylvania registered agent for year one ($99/yr thereafter) | $199 | $125 | $324 |
| Foreign Registration into Pennsylvania, one-time Pennsylvania registered agent included the first year ($99/yr after) | $199 | $250 | $449 |
| Change of Registered Agent one-time filing Ongoing Pennsylvania registered agent service is $99/year, billed on its own. | Free | $5 | $5 |
Corporations, nonprofits, and other entity types run the same $199 for our service, plus the applicable Pennsylvania state fee.

Renewal, cancellation and refunds
Registered agent service renews automatically for another year on each renewal date, unless you turn off auto-renewal or cancel in your online account, or give written notice at least 30 days before the renewal date. Renewal reminders go out about 60 days ahead.
You can cancel at any time from your online account or by contacting support. Cancelling does not by itself remove us as registered agent on the state record; a change of registered agent or resignation filing does that.
Anything already filed with the government is not refundable. Registered agent fees are not refundable once we or our partner have been appointed with the state. State fees are not refundable once paid to the state.

There is no charge to scan service of process the day it lands, a flat $15 to scan any other document, and postage at cost if you want the original in hand.
