All services are included in the annual fee. No premium tiers, no add-on charges, no exceptions.

How We Compare

Many registered agent services in South Carolina charge between $125 and $436 per year for comparable service. Some structure pricing in multiple tiers, requiring additional payment for features that should be standard, such as document scanning, online access, or compliance alerts.

We include all essential services for $99 annually because professional registered agent service should be accessible and straightforward.

What About State Fees?

Our $99 annual fee covers the registered agent service. State fees are separate and paid directly to South Carolina:

Changing Your Registered Agent: South Carolina charges a $10 filing fee if you're switching from another agent or updating your registered agent information. This is one of the lowest change fees in the country.

Annual Reports: South Carolina doesn't require annual reports for standard LLCs taxed as partnerships or disregarded entities. Only LLCs electing corporate tax treatment file Form CL-1, which is a $25 one-time initial report, not an annual filing.

Franchise Tax: South Carolina has no franchise tax for LLCs, eliminating another common ongoing cost.

South Carolina's favorable regulatory environment means minimal ongoing state fees for most businesses.
