The Mississippi stack, best on top

The order follows our five layers: three-year cost first, then what the price covers.
Top of the stack

1. Mainstay Filing: best for not filing the annual report yourself

$199 a year, with the $50 state fee added

What puts Mainstay Filing first: inside its $199 yearly price sit the formation, the registered agent and the annual report filing, and it renews at $199.

Is it the smallest bill? No. Registered Agent MS.org costs $200 less over three years, and you would do more of the paperwork.

Annual report filing is part of the package, and Mississippi charges nothing for it.

2. Registered Agent MS.org: best for a business that stays in one state

Layer by layer

What is inside the cost of forming an LLC here?

$50 is the state's share. Add $199 if a service files in year one.

Add the recurring report and the state's fees reach $50 over three years. peek at sos.ms.gov, confirmed August 2026

What do I actually send the state?

The Certificate of Formation (Form F0100) is the filing, and the Mississippi Secretary of State is where it goes. Approval creates the LLC.

The law underneath: Miss. Code Ann. § 79-29-201. peek at sos.ms.gov, confirmed August 2026

Is a registered agent required?

Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

Any individual, corporation or LLC with a physical address in Mississippi. Agents that serve for hire register with the Secretary of State as commercial agents.

peek at sos.ms.gov, confirmed October 2026

What comes after the LLC is formed?

The annual report costs nothing and comes each year. For timing the state says: April 15.

peek at sos.ms.gov, confirmed October 2026

Do I have to pay a service at all?

Nothing stops you. Without a service, your three-year bill is the state's $50.

Services add $397 to $597 across three years to take the filings off your desk, and Mainstay Filing counts the reports among them.

What put number one on top?

On what is inside the price (29%), Mainstay Filing comes out ahead.

Five layers set the order: total across three years (34%), what is inside the price (29%), price laid out in the open (14%), how the renewal behaves (12%) and how far it reaches (11%).

The layer that decides it: the annual report sits inside the first pick's price, while Registered Agent MS.org leaves it with you.

More boxes to open

Is the EIN application inside the price?

Only Mainstay Filing packs it in. Elsewhere it is $99 at Registered Agent MS.org and $99 at Mississippi Registered Agent.co.

What do the picks cost over three years?

Opened up over three years: Mainstay Filing at $597, Registered Agent MS.org at $397, Mississippi Registered Agent.co at $397, with state fees on top.

Are the fees official?

The state-side figures were taken from Mississippi's own publications, and the service prices from the price page each company posts. Dates for both appear on this page.

Do I have to use a service?

No. Owners can file with the state directly. A service saves time and can act as agent, but nothing makes you hire one.

Are there yearly state fees?

The annual report costs nothing and comes each year. For timing the state says: April 15.

What is the best LLC service for Mississippi?

Mainstay Filing is on top: $199 a year packs in formation, the registered agent and every annual report. Under it sit Registered Agent MS.org and Mississippi Registered Agent.co.
