Rhode Island Registered Agent.co Review (2026)

Rhode Island Registered Agent.co charges $99 a year for Rhode Island 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 Rhode Island LLC for $199 plus the state fee, counting the first year of agent service in that price. It also handles foreign registration in Rhode Island at $199 plus the state fee. Score note: a good match for a Rhode Island-only company that wants a flat agent price and files its own Annual Report for a Limited Liability Company.

The $99 plan, line by line

Using Rhode Island Registered Agent.co to form a Rhode Island LLC

Rhode Island 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, Rhode Island asks for the Annual Report for a Limited Liability Company every year, due May 1 with a $50 fee. Rhode Island Registered Agent.co does not file it, so it stays on your list.

Where Rhode Island Registered Agent.co stands against Mainstay Filing

Agent service alone adds up to $297 over three years at Rhode Island 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 Rhode Island Registered Agent.co's LLC route totals $397 over three years with the agent but no report filing. RI Registered Agent.org is the other Rhode Island agent on the card; it charges the same $99 a year, and the two sit close together.
