Top pick on this page

1. Indiana Registered Agent.co: best for a Indiana LLC that wants to stay close to home

$199 to form, then $99 a year for the agent, plus the state fee

Our mark 9.2 out of 10

Top grade, Indiana Registered Agent.co: it forms the LLC in Indiana for $199 over the state's fee, with the registered agent free for year one, and keeps the agent for $99 a year.

You get an in-state street address for the registered office, and any papers served on the company are scanned into your online account.

The business entity report is not in its published price, so that task stays on your list with Indiana, due every two years.

On a three-year bill it comes in under Mainstay Filing, and that is a heavily weighted criterion for us.

In the price

  • LLC filing done for you
  • A first year as your registered agent

Pros

  • Year-two agent price: $99
  • A $199 service price plus the state fee
  • The first year as your registered agent is free

3. Mainstay Filing: best for formation, agent and business entity report wrapped into one price

$199 yearly, state fee billed on top ($294 at checkout in all)

Our mark 8.6 out of 10

Rounding out the list is Mainstay Filing: one $199 yearly price filing the Indiana formation, serving as your registered agent and filing the business entity report, then renewing at $199.

When renewal comes, Mainstay prepares and files the business entity report so it is off your list. The Indiana fee is $32 every two years, with a last day of the entity's anniversary month, every 2 years deadline; Mainstay passes the fee along at cost.

Indiana Registered Agent.co is $200 lower across three years, which puts Mainstay Filing behind it on cost.

  • Registered agent duty for the whole year
  • Business entity report, prepared and filed each cycle

What drove the grades

What made the call in Indiana was cost to launch and stay. The grading method sets cost to launch and stay at 26%, launch paperwork handled at 26% and renewal behavior, state match and price transparency at 48% combined.

Indiana Registered Agent.co comes to $397 over three years, $200 under Mainstay Filing. Mainstay would file the business entity report too, but an owner can handle it alone for the state fee, so the lower price took this page.

Every criterion and weight is listed on How we rank.
