Entity services

Northwest Registered Agent

Northwest Registered Agent is a business formation and registered agent company based in Spokane, Washington. It files articles of organization, articles of incorporation and nonprofit articles, acts as registered agent, and handles the state filings that follow.

Alongside filings it provides what it calls Identity Services: a domain name, website, business email address, phone line and brand protection, given to clients at no cost. Paid services include a business address, mail forwarding and scanning, virtual office, trademark filing, EIN service, S-corporation election, annual report and renewal filings, multi-state registration, certificates of good standing, apostilles, certified copies, DBA registration, international corporate services and non-US resident company formation. Attorney-prepared LLC operating agreement templates are published for every state.

The company says it designs and builds all of its services in house rather than farming them out, buys its own buildings and staffs them with locals, and employs over 1,300 people nationwide in the customer service roles it calls Corporate Guides. It describes itself as an independent company with no investors and no debt, and it runs wholesale and affiliate programs for firms that resell registered agent service.

Published pricing: a free domain name and Identity Services are both listed at $0 per year, and LLC formation at $39 plus state fees. The office is at 522 W. Riverside Ave., Suite N, Spokane, WA 99201, and the Corporate Guide line is 509-768-2249.

Best for
