Frequently asked questions
How much does a doola formation package cost?+
Packages start at $237, and the wider price list begins at $263. The state fee is a separate charge, so the figure you see is the service fee rather than the whole cost of filing. Add the state charge on top when you budget.
Is there a free plan or a free trial?+
There is no free plan. What doola offers instead is a free trial of 30 days, with the trial listed as the pricing model rather than a permanent free tier. The trial is the only no-cost way in.
Does the package include a registered agent?+
Registered agent cover is first year included, then renewal. The address service forms part of the package at the outset, and you should expect it to become a recurring line once that period ends. Budget for the renewal apart from the formation fee.
How long does formation take?+
The stated turnaround is 2 days. That covers the formation service rather than state processing, and the state fee is a separate charge, so check what the state charges on its own.
How do I reach doola support?+
Support runs on chat and help centre. That gives you live chat and a help centre, the channels listed for the service. No phone line is listed, so put complex questions in writing and keep the record.
Who is doola built for?+
The stated audience is beginners and small business, so new founders and small businesses are the intended users. The legal entity behind the service is Distributed, Inc., the name given in the terms of service.
How does doola compare on price with other formation services?+
On package price from, doola sits at 48 of 70 brands compared, against a group median of €78.49. Cheaper listings exist, so doola is pitched above the middle rather than at the entry end.
