Free Months First, $149 After, and the Address Rule Behind Both

Bias stated at the top, where it belongs: DE Registered Agent.org competes directly with Bizee for Delaware agent work, and we charge $99 a year for it. Everything attributed to Bizee below comes from Bizee's published pricing as of July 2026. Everything else is argument, and you should weigh it knowing who wrote it.

The Bundle Is Genuinely Worth Something

Bizee, formerly Incfile, throws the agent role in at no charge alongside its LLC formation tiers, for a stretch running anywhere from three months up to a full twelve according to the tier chosen. If you are forming a Delaware LLC this month, that is money you actually keep. Nobody hands out a mandatory annual service for free out of charity, but the offer is real, disclosed, and worth taking on its own terms if formation is what you came for.

Then the Meter Starts

Standalone, Bizee's registered agent service is $149 per year. That is also the rate that begins when the bundled months run out, and the length of those months varies by tier, which means the date you start paying is a function of which package you bought rather than a fixed anniversary you can guess at.

Nothing about that is hidden. It is simply easy to lose track of. A charge that begins on a schedule you chose eight months ago, for a service you have not thought about since, is close to the ideal design for a subscription nobody reviews.

Fifty dollars a year is not a dramatic sum. Over the life of a Delaware entity that never gets dissolved, it compounds into something worth the ten minutes this comparison takes.

Delaware Cares What Kind of Address It Is

Here is a detail that separates a real agent from a forwarding arrangement, and it is written into the statute. Delaware requires the registered office to be a physical location in the state, requires the agent's own business office to be that same address, and 6 Del. C. § 18-104(e) expressly disqualifies any agent whose entire footprint is a virtual office or a mail-forwarding arrangement. An entity acting as agent has to keep a Delaware office that is generally open. An individual has to be generally present at the designated place.

The practical translation is that "we have a Delaware address" is not, by itself, compliance. Somebody has to be there when a process server walks in, because a summons handed to a locked door and a summons handed to a person are treated very differently once a deadline starts running.

Every reputable vendor in this market clears that bar, Bizee included. It is worth stating anyway, because it explains what the annual fee is actually renting: staffed floor space in Delaware, not a mailbox and a scanner.

What We Charge and What It Includes

$99 a year, identical on renewal, for as long as the company exists. Service of process gets scanned and pushed to you the same day it reaches our Delaware office. Compliance reminders are part of the base rate, not an upgrade. Your name and home address stay off the public filing, replaced by ours. The one extra we bill is $15 an item to scan general business mail, disclosed here rather than discovered later.

One competitor prints a smaller number than ours. BetterLegal lists $90, so we describe $99 as sitting among the low end of Delaware pricing rather than at the low point of it.

Switching Away From Bizee: Delaware in One Filing

Short version: it takes a single $50 certificate lodged with the Division of Corporations, the amendment captioned specifically for a registered office or agent change, and the only rule that trips people up is ordering. Appoint us before the certificate goes in and let Bizee keep the appointment until Delaware records the swap, so the register never shows this company with its agent field standing empty. The complete walkthrough, including the caption that keeps the fee at $50, is on our change of agent page.
