Example: a Florida LLC

Florida’s state fee is $138.75, so the total for one filing is:

  • AnnualDesk: $197.75
  • LegalZoom: $237.75
  • ZenBusiness: $238.75
  • Northwest Registered Agent: $238.75

Paid by card on the state site, some states add a processing fee; each service passes it on differently.

Which one fits

If your LLC is in New Jersey, Florida, Wyoming, Kentucky or Washington and you only need the annual report filed, AnnualDesk costs the least of these four and shows you the state record before you pay. If you are in another state, or you also want a registered agent or tax help in the same account, the larger services cover that and we do not.
