FilingOak · LLC Formation by State
Washington LLC Formation Service
Washington's statutory Certificate of Formation fee is $180, while the online route adds the state's processing component. FilingOak's state-side amount is $200, making the standard order $695.
A new Washington LLC also has an Initial Report due within 120 days. It can be completed with formation without a separate report fee or filed later for the state's separate charge.
Formation starts a second clock
The $695 order includes Washington's early-report workflow

| Washington FilingOak state-side amount | $200 |
| Standard FilingOak order | $695 |
The Initial Report belongs to the early Washington workflow
Washington gives a new LLC 120 days to file its Initial Report. Completing it with formation avoids treating an early mandatory filing as something the founder discovers after approval. If the Initial Report is deferred, the state charges a separate filing amount.
The $200 online amount is not the $180 statutory base
Washington's online formation workflow combines the $180 filing fee with the online processing component, producing the $200 state-side amount FilingOak uses. The two numbers should be described as different layers rather than making one disappear.
Washington formation comes with an Initial Report clock
Washington's Certificate requires a registered agent and the entity information requested by the Secretary of State. FilingOak prepares the filing from the company's real facts and keeps the Initial Report inside the early formation calendar.
Washington's early reports create public entity information
Washington business filings and reports create public entity information. Public Record Address Privacy is limited to eligible filing fields and does not turn the registered-agent service into an unrestricted business address or erase other required disclosures.
Washington moves from the Initial Report into annual reports
After the Initial Report, the LLC files a $70 annual report. The report is due by the expiration date shown on the state record, generally the last day of the formation/registration month, and can be filed in advance.
The later $70 annual report is separate from the $695 formation order.
Washington official filing and fee guidance
If you later want FilingOak to handle the recurring state filing rather than self-file it, the Annual Report Filing service is separate from LLC formation.

DIY can work if the Initial Report and annual report are both on your calendar
