Step by step

Does this state require a registered agent?

Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

Statute: NMSA 1978, § 53-19-5. nmonesource.com, confirmed October 2026, official source

Can I name anyone?

A New Mexico resident, or a corporation, LLC or partnership formed in New Mexico or authorized there whose place of business is the registered office.

An owner who fits the rule may be the agent, and the state adds no fee.

What will I pay an agent?

$99 to $149 per year, $297 to $447 across three.

Choosing a different agent leaves every state fee unchanged.

What does an agent do for the LLC?

The agent signs for legal documents addressed to the LLC in New Mexico.

The aim is that nothing important sits unnoticed while you are away. What is service of process?

What will the state bill annually?

No report falls due.

What put the first pick on top?

NM Registered Agent.org is strongest on total for three years, and that decides it.

Total for three years is worth 37% and filing jobs included 27%, with three smaller checks breaking ties.

$297 for three years at NM Registered Agent.org is $150 under Mainstay Filing.

More questions

May I name myself as agent?

Yes, if you meet the state rules on who can serve and on the address, both shown above.

Where does the agent have to be located?

The address has to be a street address in New Mexico. P.O. boxes are not accepted.

What do the picks cost over three years?

NM Registered Agent.org $297; Mainstay Filing $447; New Mexico Registered Agent.co $297

Where do these figures come from?

Every state fee links to its official page, and every service price is read from the company's own site.

Do I need to hire a service?

No. You can file with the state yourself; a service saves time and can act as your agent, but nothing makes you hire one.

Who is your first choice in New Mexico?

NM Registered Agent.org is on top because $99 a year, then $99 at renewal, fits an LLC that stays in New Mexico; Mainstay Filing and New Mexico Registered Agent.co follow.
