Researched and written by the Launchwise Review editorial team
For a 2026 launch in Arizona, Launchwise Review grades LLC services this way: Mainstay Filing ($199), AZ Registered Agent.org ($199) and Arizona Registered Agent.co ($199). Mainstay Filing earns the top grade here: the formation and statutory agent duty come together for $199 a year, renewing at $199.

Number one here

1. Mainstay Filing: best for one flat yearly price for the whole launch

$199 yearly, state fee billed on top

Our mark 9.3 out of 10

Top grade, Mainstay Filing: for $199 you get the Arizona formation and a year of statutory agent service, with the EIN application added in.

Arizona has no yearly LLC report to file, so after year one you are paying for the statutory agent alone (year one also covered your EIN application).

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

In the price

  • The formation filing, done for you
  • Statutory agent duty for the whole year
  • Your EIN application, done for you

Pros

  • A single $199 yearly price
  • Arizona's fee goes through at cost
  • Your EIN application is included
  • Renews at $199 without add-ons

Less good

  • After year one the agent portion is $100 a year above AZ Registered Agent.org's
  • Arizona has no yearly report, so the bundle gives less

In the price

  • The first year of statutory agent service

Pros

Why this order

Launchwise Review puts 26% on cost to launch and stay and 26% on launch paperwork handled, then spreads 48% over renewal behavior, state match and price transparency. For Arizona, the call came down to launch paperwork handled.

Arizona has no yearly report, so a bundle matters less, but one fixed price that includes your EIN application still nudged AZ Registered Agent.org aside on coverage.

Every criterion and weight is listed on How we rank.

Launching in Arizona: the state filing fee and form

Plan on $50 at the Arizona Corporation Commission when you file the Articles of Organization (Form L010). Each company below adds that state fee at cost.

Publication: a notice runs three times within 60 days unless the statutory agent is in a county of more than 800,000 people, where the Commission posts it instead.

Your Arizona LLC after launch: the upkeep list

Nothing recurs here: Arizona has no yearly LLC report. Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.
