The Oklahoma picks
The methodology explains the order. Three-year service fees count 34%, the filings a price covers count 26%, and renewal price, fit with Oklahoma rules and fee labeling make up the rest.
1. Mainstay Filing: best for owners who want the annual certificate handled
$199 a year
Mainstay Filing takes the top place, as $199 a year gets you the Oklahoma formation plus the repeating jobs, namely registered agent duty and the annual certificate.
Three years of service fees come to $200 more than OK Registered Agent.org; for that the price takes in more of the state's paperwork.
The annual certificate filing is done as part of renewal. Add the state's $25, billed at cost.
