New Hampshire fee schedule
State reading = filing fee + reports in years 2 and 3 + any minimum tax. Items without a fixed amount stay out of the sum.
How the ranking came out
Weight 30%: filings handled per dollar. That term separated the top two quotes.
A foreign LLC already spans two states, so a provider covering both ranked first.
New Hampshire foreign LLC registration fee and rules, quoted from the source
The New Hampshire Secretary of State, Corporation Division receives $100 and the Application for Registration as a Foreign Limited Liability Company (Form FLLC-1) from out-of-state LLCs active in New Hampshire.
An LLC that never registers may face back fees covering the unregistered stretch.
Official wording: gc.nh.gov (logged October 2026) for the record
If you skip the service
Going without a service, you still owe New Hampshire $300 across three years and you handle every form. The services bill $397 to $497 for that work.
