Ten questions we get most often about forming an LLC in Mississippi — with straight answers, not hedged ones.
5–10 business days for standard online processing through the Mississippi Secretary of State. Once the LLC is approved, we obtain the EIN the same day and deliver your bank-ready packet within a day or two after that.
Our service is $299 flat. Mississippi's state filing fee is $50, paid directly to the Mississippi Secretary of State. First-year total is $349, with no upsells and no tiered pricing.
No. Mississippi allows non-residents to form and own LLCs in the state. You do need a Mississippi registered agent — that's included in the $299 for the first year. Our Jackson office serves as the agent of record.
Yes. Mississippi allows single-member LLCs, which the IRS treats as disregarded entities by default — meaning the LLC's income flows through to the owner's personal tax return.
Four things: your Mississippi Articles of Organization filed by a formation specialist, federal EIN obtained from the IRS, a custom operating agreement drafted to your actual ownership structure, and one year of registered agent service in Mississippi. No hidden costs, no tiered pricing.
Mississippi requires an annual report, but the state charges no filing fee for it. The report must still be filed on time to keep the LLC in good standing.
Yes, Mississippi law requires every LLC to maintain a registered agent with a physical address in the state to receive service of process and official correspondence. Our Jackson office serves as your registered agent for the first year as part of the $299.
Yes. After the first year you can renew our service at $119/year, or designate yourself, an employee, or another agent by filing a change-of-agent form with the Mississippi Secretary of State. The state typically charges a small fee for the change.
Yes. Our operating agreements are drafted to your actual ownership structure — member names, percentages, voting rights, profit allocations — not a fill-in-the-blank template. Every major U.S. bank accepts them for business account opening.
Mississippi's annual report is free when filed on time. It is due between January 1 and April 15 each year through the Secretary of State's online portal. Miss the deadline and the LLC is administratively dissolved — reinstatement costs $50.
