Washington Compliance

Washington · one filing, done for you — $79 + state fee

Hand us your Washington filing. We prepare it, we submit it.

Got a Washington filing due — a contractor registration renewal, an annual report, a business license renewal? For a flat $79 plus the state's own fee, a Contractor Lane staff member prepares one supported filing and submits it where we're able to, by hand. After that first filing, Annual Auto-Compliance can take care of every year for $199/yr; or if you'd rather do the filing yourself, DIY Reminders start at $9.99/mo. No tier claims to file everything: Contractor Lane handles supported filings and tracks the rest.

Contractor Lane is a private company. We are not a government agency, we are not the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries or the Secretary of State, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the State of Washington. Every deadline referenced links to Washington's own official source.

Compare side by side

Same Washington deadlines underneath every tier. The difference is who does the filing, and what you pay for it.

Not a registered-agent or authorized-agent service on any tier. Where Contractor Lane submits a filing on your behalf, we describe the outcome you get — prepared, submitted where we're able to, confirmed — not a legal title for the relationship. Whether and how a private company can be authorized to submit specific Washington filings is still being confirmed, filing by filing.

If you received a personal Contractor Lane compliance link by email, it already shows your Washington registration, bond, and insurance status — use that. If you're arriving cold, start with the free Washington status check below; we'll confirm which filing is due, what the state's own fee is, and whether it's on our supported list — then you can hand it to us for $79, or keep it DIY with reminders.

Common questions

Which tier is right for me?

Most people start with à la carte filing: $79 plus the state's own fee, and we do one supported filing for you. After that first filing, Annual Auto-Compliance ($199/yr + state fees, early access) is the "let us handle every year" continuation. If you'd rather file everything yourself and just want a heads-up before deadlines, DIY Reminders is $9.99/mo, with a $99/yr annual option coming soon.

Does Contractor Lane file everything for me?

No. Across every paid tier, Contractor Lane handles supported filings and tracks the rest. No tier claims to file every deadline your business might have.

Do you actually file this for me, or is it automated?

Where a tier submits a filing, a Contractor Lane staff member prepares it and, where we're able to for that filing type, submits it by hand — this is not unattended software submitting to the state on your behalf. "Auto-Compliance" describes the plan handling your recurring filings automatically each year so you don't have to remember or buy them one at a time; it does not mean the filing itself is automated. Every filing our staff submits gets a stored, human-reviewed confirmation.

Is Contractor Lane my registered agent?

No. On the tiers where Contractor Lane submits a filing for you, we describe what you get — preparation, submission where we're able to, a stored confirmation — not a legal title for the relationship. That's deliberate: whether a private company can be authorized to submit a given Washington filing on a business's behalf varies by filing type and is still being confirmed.

Is Contractor Lane affiliated with the State of Washington?

No. Contractor Lane is a private company, not a government agency, and not affiliated with or endorsed by Washington State. Every deadline and figure referenced links to the state's own official source.
