$99 our flat service fee · $250 Alaska state filing fee · Articles of Organization formation document
Starting an LLC in Alaska means filing the Articles of Organization with the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing and paying the state's $250 filing fee. Once Alaska 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 Alaska LLC
- Choose and check the name. It must be distinguishable from other Alaska businesses on record and include an LLC designator. We run the check before filing.
- Name a registered agent. Alaska 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 Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing, and pay the $250 fee. If Alaska 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.
Alaska registered agent
Every Alaska LLC must keep a registered agent with a Alaska street address who is available during business hours. If you would rather not put your own address on the public record, our Alaska registered agent service is $10 per month, listed on your filing from day one, with same-day scanning of anything the state or a court sends.
