US LLC Cost: Prices and Fees 2026

The cost of a US LLC is not limited to formation fees. The budget depends on the state chosen, administrative fees, the registered agent, and additional services.

Formation fees

Each state sets its own filing fees and rules. Check the fees applicable to the selected state at the time of formation.

State fees

Costs and obligations vary by jurisdiction. Some states also apply recurring fees or annual requirements.

Registered agent

A US LLC generally needs a registered agent in the relevant state. The price depends on the provider and service period.

EIN

Obtaining an EIN may require a specific process when the owner is a non-resident. Processing times and procedures may vary.

Banking

Opening a business account may involve fees depending on the chosen institution. Approval is never automatic.

Annual obligations

After formation, some LLCs must continue to meet filing, renewal, or payment obligations depending on their state and situation.

Estimated total cost

To estimate the budget correctly, add formation fees, essential services, any EIN-related fees, registered agent costs, and applicable recurring obligations.
