Registered Agent Services

Protect Your Business, Meet Filing Deadlines, Stay Up-to-Date

As an added service to supplement Stage 1 Engagement, ClearCourse Financial will serve as your Washington registered agent to receive and forward official legal and tax notices, keeping your business up-to-date and protected. Since most startup mail is compliance-related, this service could replace the need for a separate virtual business mailbox and save you $150+ annually. If you prefer an alternate business address for privacy or branding, ClearCourse can help you set up both efficiently.

Total: $150 per year
