Which one fits you
- Bizee if price matters most and you’re fine filing the EIN yourself with the IRS (Form SS-4 by fax or mail, free).
- LegalZoom if you have no SSN and want the provider to handle the EIN, or you want an attorney available in your first month. Cancel the subscriptions that start after the trial if you don’t need them.
What changes the price
- Registered agent: Bizee includes it in year one and charges from year two; LegalZoom charges from year one, and it costs more.
- EIN: Bizee’s EIN service is for owners with an SSN or ITIN. LegalZoom files it without an SSN only in Pro and Premium; its standalone EIN service just prepares the form for you to send.
