1. Mainstay Filing: best for formation, agent and annual report for one price
$199 each year plus the state fee ($299 due at checkout)
out of 10
Mainstay Filing wins here: $199 a year pays for the formation filing, a full year as your registered agent and the annual report, renewing at $199.
Mainstay files the annual report for you as part of the renewal. Oregon charges $100 every year, due anniversary of the LLC's formation in Oregon; the state's fee is passed through at cost.
The three-year bill is $200 higher than OR Registered Agent.org's, and the wider coverage is worth that to us.
What you get

What we like
- $199 at renewal, nothing extra
- The EIN application comes with it
- Oregon's fee is passed through at cost
- One $199 yearly price that includes the annual report
Cons
