HI Registered Agent.org Review (2026)

HI Registered Agent.org offers Hawaii registered agent service at $99 a year, the same $99 at renewal. The plan provides a street address in the state for the registered office, and legal papers served on the company are scanned to an online account. It will also form a Hawaii LLC for $199 plus the state fee, with the first year of agent service included. It registers out-of-state companies in Hawaii for $199 plus the state fee. The finding: sound for a Hawaii-only company that wants a fixed agent charge and is prepared to file its own Domestic Limited Liability Company Annual Report.

What the $99 yearly charge covers

HI Registered Agent.org acts as the Hawaii registered agent for $99 a year. The company receives a street address in the state for its registered office, and papers served on it are scanned to an online account. Renewal leaves the charge at $99.

Forming a Hawaii LLC through HI Registered Agent.org

HI Registered Agent.org files the formation document for $199; the state's filing fee is billed separately. Year one as your registered agent is included, and the agent is $99 a year after that. The EIN application is $99 extra, though the IRS issues the number at no cost.

Hawaii requires the Domestic Limited Liability Company Annual Report every year, due last day of the quarter in which the LLC was organized with a $12.50 state fee. HI Registered Agent.org does not prepare it, so the owner must.

Registering a foreign company in Hawaii with HI Registered Agent.org

HI Registered Agent.org prepares the state registration for $199, and Hawaii adds a $51 fee. The first year as registered agent is included. The owner supplies original certificate of existence from the jurisdiction of formation, issued within 60 days.

HI Registered Agent.org against Mainstay Filing and the other providers

On the agent service alone, HI Registered Agent.org totals $297 across three years against $447 for Mainstay Filing, a margin of $150. Mainstay Filing offers one agent plan that applies in every state and scans the first three government mailings a year free. Mainstay Filing's package is $199 a year and includes the annual report; the HI Registered Agent.org route totals $397 over three years with the agent but leaves report filing to you. Hawaii Registered Agent.co, the other Hawaii agent heard on this site, charges the same $99 a year, and the two finish near each other.
