About
About Statewise Business
Statewise Business is an almanac of LLC filing costs: what each state charges, where the figure comes from and which services we would use to file.
What is in the almanac
Three entries for each state (LLC costs, registered agents and foreign LLCs), three 50-state tables and three nationwide lists. Each entry gives its answer first and its cited figures after.
The compilers
Statewise Business is compiled and written by its editorial team. The team is not a law firm, and nothing in the almanac is legal or tax advice.
How the almanac is funded
Statewise Business is reader-supported. We may earn money when you buy through links on this page, and the companies we rank are our partners. Prices come from each company's own pages and official state sources.
Method
The methodology sets out the sources, the 50-state rank and the five criteria.
