Every Oregon LLC files an annual report with the Secretary of State on its anniversary date. The state sets the fee; we confirm the current amount before filing and track your date.
Do You Need a Registered Agent in Oregon?
Yes. A registered agent with a Oregon street address is required for every LLC. It receives lawsuits and state mail for you. Ours is included for the first year.
