A New Mexico LLC costs $347 all-in through Anonymousllc.co in 2026: a $297 service fee plus the $50 state filing fee. New Mexico requires no annual report and no annual state fee, so the only recurring cost is the $100/year registered agent renewal. That makes New Mexico the cheapest anonymous LLC to own over its lifetime. This breakdown covers the state fee, the all-in package, DIY versus done-for-you, ongoing costs, add-on services, and how New Mexico compares to Wyoming, Delaware, and Nevada.
The New Mexico Secretary of State charges a $50 filing fee for the Articles of Organization, paid once at formation. This is the only mandatory state fee at filing time. New Mexico does not charge for a name reservation on standard formation, and it does not require newspaper publication the way a few other states do. The $50 is a flat, one-time state charge - it does not recur, because New Mexico has no annual report. Everything else in the formation cost is service work: name search, filing, registered agent, operating agreement, EIN, and bank applications.
A New Mexico LLC costs $347 all-in through Anonymousllc.co: a $297 service fee plus the $50 New Mexico state fee. That single price covers the state filing, registered agent for year one, the operating agreement, the EIN, and four to five US bank applications. This is the cheapest all-in price of the four anonymous states, and there are no hidden upsells. The $297 service fee is flat across every state Anonymousllc.co files in; only the state fee changes. Add-on services are priced separately: EIN $99 standalone, ITIN $299, and BOI $150 per report where it applies.
New Mexico charges no annual report fee and no annual state fee, so the only recurring cost is the $100/year registered agent renewal after year one. Nothing else recurs at the state level. This is the reason New Mexico is the cheapest anonymous state to hold long-term. Wyoming adds a $60 annual license tax, Delaware adds a $300 franchise tax, and Nevada adds around $350 a year in list and license fees. In New Mexico, a founder pays $347 in year one and $100 a year after that, and the entity stays in good standing.
Filing yourself costs just the $50 state fee, but you handle the name check, Articles, operating agreement, EIN, and bank applications alone. Anonymousllc.co charges the $297 service fee on top of the $50 state fee to do all of it for you in 5-10 business days. Most owners find DIY costs more in time and missed steps than the service fee saves in money. The EIN alone takes non-residents a fax filing and 5-7 days of follow-up, and a rejected name or a defective operating agreement can stall banking for weeks. The $347 package removes that risk and delivers a funded US bank account at the end.
The $347 total ($297 service fee plus $50 state fee) covers the state filing, registered agent for year one, the operating agreement, the EIN, and four to five US bank applications with Mercury, Relay, and Bluevine. There are no add-on fees inside the package. Because New Mexico has no annual report, the $347 buys an entity that needs no state renewal. The EIN and first-year registered agent are bundled, not upsold. The only thing not included is optional extras a specific founder asks for, such as a custom operating agreement or an ITIN, which are quoted separately.
Add-ons are priced separately from the $347 package: EIN $99 if bought standalone, ITIN $299, BOI filing $150 per report, and registered agent renewal $100/year after year one. The formation package already bundles the EIN and first-year registered agent. A fully custom operating agreement for complex or multi-member ownership is a $199 add-on. None of these are required for a standard single-member New Mexico LLC - the $347 package is complete on its own. Founders add them only when a specific need arises, such as an ITIN for personal US tax filing or a BOI report for a foreign reporting company.
New Mexico is the cheapest anonymous state at $347 all-in with no annual report; Wyoming is $397 with a $60 annual license tax, Delaware is $407 with a $300 franchise tax, and Nevada is $722 with roughly $350 a year in ongoing fees. Over a five-year hold, the gap widens because New Mexico has nothing recurring except the $100/year registered agent. A New Mexico LLC costs $347 in year one and $400 across the next four years of agent renewals. A Delaware LLC adds $300 every June 1 for the franchise tax, so its five-year cost runs well above New Mexico's.
New Mexico's $347 total is $50 cheaper than Wyoming's $397 at formation, and New Mexico requires no annual report while Wyoming charges a $60 annual license tax. The lifetime gap grows every year New Mexico skips a state renewal. Many founders still choose Wyoming despite the higher cost, because Wyoming offers easier banking and a stronger case-law reputation. The decision is a trade-off: New Mexico wins on pure cost, Wyoming wins on banking and legal track record. Both keep owners off public records, so anonymity is equal between them.
A New Mexico LLC costs about $747 over five years: $347 all-in at formation, then $100/year for the registered agent in years two through five. There is no annual report fee and no franchise tax to add to that total. That five-year figure is the lowest of any anonymous state. A Delaware LLC adds a $300 franchise tax every June 1, so its five-year cost runs past $1,900 before the registered agent. A Nevada LLC adds roughly $350 a year in list and license fees on top. New Mexico's near-flat maintenance is the reason it wins on lifetime cost, not just on the first invoice.
No. The $50 New Mexico state filing fee is a one-time charge paid at formation, not a recurring cost. New Mexico has no annual report and no franchise tax, so the state fee never comes back. This is a common point of confusion for founders coming from states that bill an annual list or franchise tax. In New Mexico, once the $50 is paid and the Articles are accepted, the only future cost is the $100/year registered agent renewal. The state itself charges nothing on an ongoing basis to keep the LLC active and in good standing, so the number a founder sees at formation is the number that defines the entity's cost for its entire life.
