The Filings That Come Back Every Year

Recurring US filings, tracked and filed on time. Form through Skala — first year of registered agent and mailing address free.

Every US entity owes the same recurring filings. We track the dates and file before they're due. Form a company through Skala and your first year of registered agent and mailing address is free.

Registered Agent

Every US state requires your company to have a registered agent: an official in-state contact that receives legal notices and government mail on your behalf. We act as yours and forward whatever arrives. Same-day activation, renewed automatically.
From $160/Yr
Required by law

Annual State Filings

Franchise tax, annual report, statement of information: each state asks
for something different. We work out what you owe and file it before the deadline.

How It Works

Three steps to a company that stays compliant. Already incorporated with Skala? It’s automatic.

Add your company

Enter your company name and state — it takes a couple of minutes. Works for any US entity, we just need to know your formation date.

See what’s due

Skala reads your entity type and state and lays out filings and renewals you owe — with the exact dates and costs.

Choose what we handle

Turn on the services you want: a registered agent, a mailing address, state filing. A lawyer reviews each one and files it only after your approval.

Incorporation is one day. Compliance is every year.

Every US company carries annual filings. Miss one and the state piles on penalties plus monthly interest, then strips your good standing — which banks and investors check before they say yes. Skala tracks every deadline, across all five states, so you don't pay to learn them.

FAQ

Can I add a company I formed somewhere else?

Yes — that's the whole point. If you incorporated through Stripe Atlas, Clerky, doola, Firstbase, or a law firm, you can add your US company to Skala and manage most of its filings, deadlines, and documents from one place. No re-incorporation required.

Do I have to move my registered agent to Skala?

No. You can keep your existing one. If you have a Delaware company, you can switch to Skala's registered agent and manage everything directly with us.

What does it cost to keep compliаnt each year?

It depends on your state, entity type, and revenue — but for most early-stage founders, expect roughly $1,500–$2,500 per year in total.

Here's what that includes:

  • Registered agent (~$160–$200/yr) — required by law. A designated service that receives official legal and government correspondence on your company's behalf. Included in your first year with Skala.
  • US mailing address (~$250/yr) — not a legal requirement, but most banks need a physical US address on file to open and maintain your account. Also included in your first year.
  • Annual state filing ($0–$849/yr) — required by law, but the name and cost vary by state. Delaware calls it a Annual Franchise Tax Report, California — Statement of Information, Wyoming — Annual Report, Texas — Public Information Report, Nevada — Annual List & Business License. Skala can handle the filing for $99 on top of the state fee.
  • Accounting & bookkeeping (~$1,500/yr) — you'll need your own. Less for a simple LLC, more for a C-Corp with cross-border activity.
    Federal corporate income tax (21%) — though most early-stage startups pay nothing here because they're not yet profitable.
What happens if I miss a filing deadline?

It depends on the state where your company is registered. Missing a state filing deadline or an IRS deadline typically triggers penalties and interest. Failing to file on time, or failing to pay your registered agent, can each cause your company to fall out of good standing.

Once a company loses good standing, it can't fully operate or request documents from the state, which can affect fundraising, banking, and other business activities.

Do I need a US address or to visit the US?

You need a US address for certain corporate services, but that’s not a problem — Skala provides a US mailing address service.

You also don’t need to visit the US in person. You can appoint a new registered agent, change your company name, or order a Certificate of Good Standing remotely, from anywhere in the world.
