NC Registered Agent.org Review (2026)

NC Registered Agent.org is a North Carolina registered agent service: $99 a year, the same $99 at renewal, with a North Carolina street address for the registered office and served legal papers scanned to you online. It can form the LLC too, for $199 plus state fees. Foreign registration into North Carolina is $199 plus the state fee. Choose it for a North Carolina-only company that wants a low, fixed agent price; look elsewhere if you want the annual report filed for you.
