Oregon state fees, from official sources

Item Amount Source
Starting the LLC $100 sos.oregon.gov (pulled October 2026, noted here)
Annual report $100 every year sos.oregon.gov (pulled August 2026, noted here)
What the state collects by year 3 $300 Added from the lines above

The state's share is worked out from three pieces: what it charges to file, what it charges for the next two reports, and any minimum tax. Anything without a fixed price, newspaper notices for instance, is left out of that figure.

Notes on the ranking

In Oregon, filings covered by the price (29% of the order) was the measure where Mainstay Filing pulled ahead.

Filings covered per dollar made the difference: the annual report is part of the price.

Add the EIN application and Mainstay Filing's total passes OR Registered Agent.org's in year 2.
