Registered agent in Pennsylvania
Your agent on file in Pennsylvania for $99 a year, flat. Same-day scans of anything the state or a court sends you, mail scanning, and compliance reminders, all in one dashboard.
Pennsylvania is a large, established state to form an LLC in, and it recently replaced its old decennial filing with a yearly one. The state requires every LLC to keep a registered office with a real Pennsylvania address, and we are that agent for $99 a year, the same flat price we charge in every state, with same-day scans of anything the state or a court sends you.

Does Pennsylvania require a registered agent?
Pennsylvania law requires every LLC and corporation to maintain a registered office with a physical address in the state, to receive service of process and official state mail. If your company is not physically in Pennsylvania, a commercial registered office provider like us supplies that address so the state and the courts can reach you.
