Maryland Registered Agent.co Review (2026)

Maryland Registered Agent.co charges $99 a year for Maryland resident agent service, with the same $99 at renewal. The plan includes an in-state street address for the registered office and online scans of legal papers served on the company. The company also forms a Maryland LLC for $199 plus the state fee, counting the first year of agent service in that price. It also handles foreign registration in Maryland at $199 plus the state fee. Score note: a good match for a Maryland-only company that wants a flat agent price and files its own Business Entity Annual Report.

The $99 plan, line by line

For $99 a year, Maryland Registered Agent.co acts as the Maryland resident agent. You receive an in-state street address for the registered office, and papers served on the company are scanned and posted to your account. Renewal holds at $99.

Using Maryland Registered Agent.co to form a Maryland LLC

Maryland Registered Agent.co prepares and files the formation document for $199; the state's filing fee is billed separately. Year one of resident agent service comes with it, and the agent runs $99 a year afterwards. The EIN application is a $99 extra, though the IRS charges nothing for an EIN.

Later, Maryland asks for the Business Entity Annual Report every year, due April 15 with a $300 fee. Maryland Registered Agent.co does not file it, so it stays on your list.

Bringing an existing company into Maryland with Maryland Registered Agent.co

Maryland Registered Agent.co sends the registration to the state for $199, and Maryland's $100 fee is added. A year of resident agent service rides along. You supply written proof of existence from the home state, equivalent to a certificate of good standing, issued within 60 days.

Where Maryland Registered Agent.co stands against Mainstay Filing

Agent service alone adds up to $297 over three years at Maryland Registered Agent.co and $447 at Mainstay Filing, a $150 spread. Mainstay Filing runs a single agent plan across all fifty states and scans the first three government mailings a year free. Mainstay Filing's formation package costs $199 a year and adds the annual report, while Maryland Registered Agent.co's LLC route totals $397 over three years with the agent but no report filing. MD Registered Agent.org is the other Maryland agent on the card; it charges the same $99 a year, and the two sit close together.
