WA Registered Agent.org Review (2026)

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

What the $99 yearly charge covers

WA Registered Agent.org acts as the Washington 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 Washington LLC through WA Registered Agent.org

WA 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.

Washington requires the annual report every year, due last day of the entity's anniversary month with a $70 state fee. WA Registered Agent.org does not prepare it, so the owner must.

Registering a foreign company in Washington with WA Registered Agent.org

WA Registered Agent.org prepares the state registration for $199, and Washington adds a $180 fee. The first year as registered agent is included. The owner supplies certificate of existence (good standing) or similar document, issued within 60 days.

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

On the agent service alone, WA 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 WA Registered Agent.org route totals $397 over three years with the agent but leaves report filing to you.
