What does Doola really cost per year, all in?
Quick answer
Plan on the tier price plus your state fees every year. As of 2026 (confirm at checkout), Starter is $297 per year, Tax and Compliance is $1,999 per year, and Business-in-a-Box is $2,999 per year or $329 per month, each plus separate state fees.
Doola is a yearly subscription, so the honest all-in figure has two parts: Doola's plan price and your state's ongoing fees, which are separate and paid to the state, not to Doola. The three main tiers, as of 2026 and to confirm at checkout since Doola prices per year and runs promotions, are Starter at $297 per year (LLC formation, EIN, a US address, registered agent), Tax and Compliance at $1,999 per year (adds IRS and state tax filing, a tax consult, and bookkeeping software), and Business-in-a-Box at $2,999 per year or $329 per month (adds a dedicated bookkeeper, monthly statements, and quarterly estimates).
Add your state fees on top. Wyoming is Doola's default state and its LLC annual report minimum is about $60 per year. A Delaware LLC has a flat $300 per year franchise tax. So a realistic Starter total in Wyoming is roughly $297 plus about $60 in state fees per year, while Delaware would add $300. These state figures are the owner's ongoing cost regardless of which provider formed the company.
The registered agent and US address are bundled into the annual plan, which is a plus for budgeting because they renew with the plan rather than as separate surprise bills. This is different from some competitors that charge registered agent separately. The tradeoff is that because everything renews yearly, the cost recurs even if in a given year you only really wanted the original one-time formation.
Watch for add-ons so your all-in number is accurate. Doola runs steady upsells for things like ITIN, extra bookkeeping, and tax packages during and after signup. None are mandatory to have a functioning company on Starter, so decline what you do not need. Decide your tier before you enter the signup flow, and treat optional add-ons as optional.
To estimate your own all-in cost: pick your tier, add your state's annual fee (about $60 for Wyoming, $300 for Delaware), and add only the specific add-ons you truly need. If you want just a working company, Starter plus state fees is your floor. If you want tax filing and bookkeeping handled for a foreign-owned LLC, budget for the Tax and Compliance tier plus state fees and confirm in writing what filings it includes.
