Pricing

- State filing fees of any kind.
- Forming the company, or any amendment or reinstatement filing.

Ready when you are. Ordering takes about five minutes.
Order HereA registered agent receives service of process, state correspondence, and official notices on behalf of your business. Pennsylvania approaches this role with unusual statutory language: the law technically requires a registered office rather than an agent, and a commercial registered agent, called a Commercial Registered Office Provider (CROP), fills that role for most businesses. The term "registered agent" remains the practical vocabulary, and the function matches what every other state expects. What differs is the paperwork underneath.
Pennsylvania's LLC law states that every limited liability company "shall have and continuously maintain in this Commonwealth a registered office" (15 Pa.C.S. § 8825(a)). Corporations, nonprofits, and limited partnerships carry parallel obligations under their own chapters of Title 15. A separate provision, 15 Pa.C.S. § 109, lets any entity name a Commercial Registered Office Provider in place of a registered office address. The full statutory text is available through the Pennsylvania General Assembly.
That structure explains a detail that surprises many owners: Pennsylvania filings ask for a registered office address or a named CROP, not an "agent" in the usual sense.

Switching to us from another agent
Change of registered agent to us: $0 our fee + $5 Pennsylvania filing fee = $5. The registered agent service itself is $99/year.
- Select a new registered agent that satisfies Pennsylvania's registered office rules: a physical street address in the commonwealth, or a CROP named in place of an address.
- Complete the Statement of Change of Registered Office (DSCB:15-1507/5507/8625/8825), which asks for your entity information and the new registered office or CROP designation.
- Submit the form to the Pennsylvania Department of State with the $5 fee, on paper or through Business Filing Services online.
- Verify the update in the Department's business records once processing completes, and confirm your prior agent knows the change is effective.
Frequently asked questions
Why is your service priced at $99 per year?
We provide comprehensive registered agent service at competitive pricing. The $99 annual fee covers your physical Pennsylvania address, SOP capture for Pennsylvania, compliance reminders, online portal access, and privacy protection. No additional fees or undisclosed charges.
Can I terminate service if needed?
Yes. You can change your registered agent at any time by filing the appropriate form with the Pennsylvania Secretary of State. We maintain client relationships through professional service delivery rather than restrictive contracts.
What is a registered agent in Pennsylvania?
A registered agent is an individual or company designated to receive legal documents, service of process, and official state correspondence on behalf of your business. Pennsylvania law generally expects every LLC and corporation to maintain a registered agent with a physical address in the state.
Why does my business need a registered agent?
The Pennsylvania Secretary of State maintains registered agent information for all business entities filed in the state. Having a properly designated agent ensures you receive important legal documents, compliance notices, and state correspondence reliably. Operating without proper registered agent designation may result in compliance violations.
