Virginia Furnishes the Form When You Ask. Try Asking About Year Two.

The interest behind the page, first. VA Registered Agent.org sells Virginia registered agent service at $99 a year. That makes us a rival of Inc Authority and not a referee. There is also one Inc Authority figure we cannot give you anywhere below, and the reason is that the company has not published it.

Twelve Months at No Charge, and That Holds Up

Order a formation package here and the agent seat is covered for a full year at no charge. Straightforward offer, landing at the stage where a new business has already assigned every dollar it has. We are not going to staple a warning label onto something that costs nothing.

The Second Year Is a Blank We Will Not Fill In

Renewal pricing has an ordinary habitat. It lives on the plan comparison, or in fine print beneath a package, or on the questions page where somebody eventually asks. We went through that habitat across their public site in July 2026 and found the space where the number belongs standing empty. So rather than guess at it, or characterize a figure we have never seen, we are going to leave it empty here too and let you decide what the absence means.

Why it matters in this state specifically: Virginia requires an agent named on your record for every year the company stays registered, not merely the first one. So the free twelve months function as the front end of a repeating purchase, with the price revealing itself once you are already settled in. Our complaint concerns order of operations, not magnitude. A renewal figure can be entirely fair and still be one you never got to weigh against anything, if the first time you lay eyes on it is a checkout screen or a sales call.

A State That Also Makes You Ask, and Then Answers

There is a small symmetry here worth pulling out, because Virginia does something faintly similar and lands in a completely different place.

The paper form that moves your registered agent is not posted for download. Most states park their PDFs on a public page and let you help yourself; Virginia does not. You request a copy from the State Corporation Commission and one is furnished to you. Ask, and receive. The state would honestly rather you filed the whole thing online and never touched paper at all, which is why the download does not exist.

But notice what happens the moment you do ask. You get the document, and you get it for nothing, because the price of the transaction is $0 and Virginia publishes that zero rather than concealing it behind a conversation. The asking is a formality; the answer is complete and free.

Set that beside a company where asking is the only route to a number that will eventually be charged to your card, and the contrast this page exists to draw is right in front of you. Withholding is a choice either way. What differs is what comes back when you ask.

Our Two Figures, Both Printed in Advance

First year, $99. Second year, $99. That paragraph is the entire pricing disclosure, and it is now over.

What sits underneath:

• A Virginia street address of ours filling the registered office line so yours does not
• Court papers reaching your account as a same-day scan, with an alert, so nothing waits on you signing in
• A reminder built around your anniversary month, which is the deadline Virginia sets for its $50 registration fee
• A document archive you can open at any hour from anything with a screen
• Non-legal mail imaged at $15 apiece, a charge we put in writing before you buy instead of afterward

This whole page turns on numbers being in print, so here is a printed one that works against us. BetterLegal's annual charge is $90, under our $99. Among the low published rates is the accurate way to put where we sit. The lowest would not be.

Leaving Inc Authority in Virginia Costs a Filing and No Money

One paragraph, because the Commonwealth made it brief. The appointment transfers on statement of change form LLC-1016, submitted through the Clerk's Information System to the Commission, at a fee of zero, and it takes effect in real time rather than sitting in a processing queue. We are added on the same filing that removes the outgoing agent, so the seat never stands vacant for even an hour, and your free year can run out behind us without any consequence at all. The complete walkthrough is on our Virginia change of agent page.

The Email Worth Sending This Week

If the free year is nearing its end, email them and ask what the next one costs, so that the answer exists somewhere you can look at it. Whichever figure arrives, it will land beside a number that was already printed higher up this page before you ever wrote, in a state that charges nothing at all to act on the difference.
