Our top pick in Alaska

1. Mainstay Filing: best for formation, agent and biennial report wrapped into one price

$199 yearly, state fee billed on top ($449 at checkout in all)

Our mark 9.6 out of 10

Top grade, Mainstay Filing: the Alaska formation, your registered agent and the biennial report are bundled at $199 a year.

When renewal comes, Mainstay prepares and files the biennial report so it is off your list. The Alaska fee is $100 every two years, with a January 2 of the filing year deadline, and being late adds $37.50; Mainstay passes the fee along at cost.

It runs $200 above AK Registered Agent.org across three years; the extra paperwork it handles is worth that to us.

  • A full year as your registered agent
  • Biennial report, prepared and filed each cycle
  • Your EIN application, done for you

Pros

  • Your EIN application is included

Why this order

Two criteria weigh 26% each in these grades: cost to launch and stay and launch paperwork handled. Renewal behavior, state match and price transparency share 48%, and Alaska turned on launch paperwork handled.

The state's report comes every other year in Alaska, at $100, and a late one adds $37.50. Mainstay's price takes that filing off your list and AK Registered Agent.org's does not, so coverage beat AK Registered Agent.org's lower three-year cost.

Every criterion and weight is listed on How we rank.
