Starting an LLC in Oregon means filing the Articles of Organization with the Secretary of State and paying the state's $100 filing fee. Once Oregon approves it, your LLC exists as a separate legal entity. Rapid Registered Agent handles that filing for a flat $99, the same price we charge in every state, with no packages and no upsells.

How to form your Oregon LLC
- Choose and check the name. It must be distinguishable from other Oregon businesses on record and include an LLC designator. We run the check before filing.
- Name a registered agent. Oregon requires a registered agent with a physical address in the state. Add ours for $10/month or name your own.
- File the Articles of Organization. We prepare it, list your registered agent, submit it to the Secretary of State, and pay the $100 fee. If Oregon rejects anything, we fix and refile at no charge.
- Handle the follow-ups. Get a free EIN from the IRS, adopt an operating agreement, open a business bank account, and calendar any initial or annual report.
