Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co Review (2026)

Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co offers Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania LLC for $199 plus the state fee, with the first year of agent service included. It registers out-of-state companies in Pennsylvania for $199 plus the state fee. The finding: sound for a Pennsylvania-only company that wants a fixed agent charge and is prepared to file its own annual report.

What the $99 yearly charge covers

Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co acts as the Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania LLC through Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co

Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co 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.

Pennsylvania requires the annual report every year, due September 30 with a $7 state fee. Pennsylvania Registered Agent.co does not prepare it, so the owner must.

PA Registered Agent.org, the other Pennsylvania agent heard on this site, charges the same $99 a year, and the two finish near each other.
