Can I write off an LLC registered agent service?

The cost of a registered agent service for an LLC is considered an ordinary and necessary business expense, which makes it deductible. This deduction is applicable if the service is used to comply with state requirements for maintaining a registered agent. However, if the service is used for personal reasons, it would not be deductible. For example, if you use a registered agent service to ensure your LLC meets state compliance requirements, this cost can be deducted as a business expense.
