What each quote adds up to
Service fees only, from each company's prices sampled November 13, 2026. No quote passes another within ten years.
Bench calculator
Readings for 1 to 5 years, EIN application optional. State fees are left out because they match on every quote.
State fees with citations
Every state row cites its official source. The three-year total combines the filing, the second-year and third-year reports and any minimum tax.
Why quote one is quote one
Weight 30%: filings handled per dollar. That term separated the top two quotes.
Indiana wants the business entity report every two years, so a price that files it ranked above a lower price that does not.
If you need the EIN application, the quotes cross in year 2, as Mainstay Filing passes IN Registered Agent.org.
Indiana LLC filing fee and requirements, quoted from the source
The Articles of Organization Domestic Limited Liability Company (Form State Form 49459), plus $95, is delivered to the Indiana Secretary of State. Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

If you skip the service
State fees alone read $127 for three years, which is the floor. The board shows what each service adds ($397 to $597).
