Frequently Asked Questions

What is a registered agent?

A registered agent is a person or company authorized to receive service of process, state notices, and official mail on behalf of a business entity.

What is a registered office?

The registered office is the physical address where the registered agent is available during normal business hours to accept legal and state correspondence.

Why do I need a registered agent?

Most states require LLCs and corporations to maintain a registered agent so the business can reliably receive lawsuits, compliance notices, and government mail.

Who can be a registered agent?

A registered agent can be an adult resident of the state or a business authorized to provide registered agent services in that state.

Can I be my own registered agent?

In many states, yes. The tradeoff is that your address becomes part of the public record and you must stay available during business hours.

How can I change my registered agent or registered office?

You generally update the information by filing the appropriate change form with the state and paying any required filing fee.
