Estimate the government fees for registering an existing business in a state before submitting.
Fees are broken down by component (base, dynamic, late, credit_card, ach); only the components that apply to the jurisdiction are returned. fee.total is the all-in grand total assuming credit-card payment. It is always an estimate.
Omit expedited_tier and, where the state offers expedited processing, the response includes expedited_tiers: a menu of { tier, fee } where fee is the added surcharge for that speed. Pass expedited_tier to fold one tier’s surcharge into the components instead.
Any other query parameter is forwarded to the fee calculation as an extra input; a 400 lists any input the state requires that was not supplied. Returns 404 where no fee data is available for the jurisdiction.
