Northwest Registered Agent 🧾 Service

What you get

Northwest forms an LLC in any US state for $39 plus state fees. It emphasises privacy: you can use Northwest's details instead of your own where the state allows, keeping your name and home address off public records, and it never sells customer data. Formation customers get a free business address, plus a domain name, website, business email and phone line. Registered agent service costs $125 a year (or $100 a year per state for five or more states), with all state and legal mail accepted and up to five normal business documents a year scanned free. Northwest says it has not raised that price in 20 years.

Who qualifies

Anyone forming a US LLC (Northwest also forms corporations and nonprofits).

Good to know

• State fees vary, generally $100 to $300 for an LLC; annual reports and fees follow in most states.
• The page does not say whether the first year of registered agent service is included in the $39; check at checkout.
• Northwest is a registered agent and filing service, not a law firm.

• For five or more states the registered agent price drops to $100 a year per state, useful if you register to do business in several states.

• Northwest's guides note that annual report fees are usually modest, though Massachusetts charges $500.

Verdict

The cheapest straightforward LLC filing with a strong privacy angle, good for solo founders and small businesses. Delaware C-corps for investors are better handled by Stripe Atlas or Clerky.
