RI Registered Agent.org Review (2026)

RI Registered Agent.org is a Rhode Island resident agent service: $99 a year, the same $99 at renewal, with a Rhode Island street address for the registered office and served legal papers scanned to you online. Rhode Island LLC formation is $199 over the state fee, first agent year included. For foreign registration it charges $199 plus the state fee. Best for founders who will stay in Rhode Island and handle their own Annual Report for a Limited Liability Company.

What the $99 plan includes

The yearly plan gives your company an in-state street address for its registered office, and RI Registered Agent.org scans legal documents served on the company and sends them to you online. The price is $99 a year. Renewal is the same $99.

LLC formation: $199 plus state fee

RI Registered Agent.org prepares and files the Articles of Organization (Form 400) for $199 plus Rhode Island's $150 filing fee. The first year of resident agent service is included, then the agent is $99 a year. An EIN application is a $99 add-on; the IRS issues EINs for free.

RI Registered Agent.org's prices do not include the Annual Report for a Limited Liability Company, which Rhode Island expects every year ($50).

Bringing an existing company into Rhode Island

For a company formed elsewhere, RI Registered Agent.org files the Application for Registration for a Foreign Limited Liability Company (Form 450) with the Rhode Island Department of State, Business Services Division for $199 plus the state's $150 fee. A year of resident agent service comes with it. You supply certificate of Good Standing or Letter of Status dated within 60 days.
