Montana LLC FAQs
Montana Registered Agent LLC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What do I need to start an LLC? top
You need to file articles of organization with the state of Montana. You can simply sign up for our services here and we start on your order right away: http://www.49dollarmontanaregisteredagent.com/incorporation-service-signup.html
Do I need to hire an attorney to form an LLC? top
No, anyone can form an LLC. An attorney or accountant can form an LLC for you. It will cost you 500-1000.00 but accountants or attorneys have gone through many years of education and can answer any legal questions you might have that pertain to your personal well-being. You can also do this yourself, but if you don't do it correctly, the Secretary of State won't process it, and you might get something set up in a way that isn't what's best for you or what you wanted.
Having us form an LLC for you is a good balance of the two other options. Though we are not attorneys and can't provide legal advice, we do this every day, and have a pretty good understanding of it, and will notice if you are requesting something that the Montana Secretary of State might not like. We only charge $100 and you will have the peace of mind that you are setting up your LLC

correctly. Most of our work comes from Montana attorneys that don’t want to waste their time with the nuts and bolts of properly filing Montana LLCs.
How many people are needed to start an LLC? top
As little as ONE, or as many as you want.
Can members of a LLC be other LLC's, or corporations, or do they have to be individuals? top
Members of an LLC can be other corporations, LLC's, or individuals. Any combination works.
Should I create a member managed, or a manager managed LLC? top
If you are the single owner of this LLC, you would probably want to be member managed, because there will be no one else in the organization to make decisions. If you operate your LLC as a business, and have multiple different members who have interest in this new LLC, but some of them are silent partners, and do not want to get involved with the day-to-day management of the LLC, you would probably prefer to be a manager managed LLC. This will give your CEO, or operations manager, the signing capabilities he/she will need for your LLC. If you are a husband and wife duo member managed will still probably be simplest for you. If you are trying to be more private, regardless of your situation, manager managed will be more private. Whatever you decide, we provide you with the proper backend/non-public documents to manage your LLC.
How quickly will I get my official initial documents? top
Montana secretary of state gets our paperwork the same day you hire us. If you use their rush service for $70.00 extra, they will have your documents filed within 8 hours of them receiving the documents. Montana also makes available a 1 hour super-rush service if you need it done right away. They charge an extra $150.00 for this service. Without either rush service, it takes about a week for the Montana Secretary of State to file the paperwork. Sometimes it gets done in the same day anyway, but they won't guarantee that. We get the paperwork back from the state once they process it. We actually get our paperwork processed faster than someone physically walking into the Secretary of State in Helena, because we file electronically. If you’re needing 1 hour service, we’ll have your LLC or Corporation formed or registered before someone in Helena even GETS to the Secretary of State!!
Are you going to keep sending bills to me? top
The state will charge you $15.00 a year every April 15th for your annual report filings. If you file in January, you’re not going to have to file an annual report in the same year a couple months later.
If you use our Montana registered agent services to keep your privacy and personal information from being public and on the Montana website, you will get a bill for $49.00 each year. You can cancel at any time, and there's no cancellation fee. Our Registered agent fees are half of our next cheapest competitor.
Is the annual registered agent fee a year from time of hire, or calendar year? top
We charge for one year from the time you hire us.
