What is a Registered Agent?
A Registered Agent acts on a company’s behalf in their state of incorporation or qualification. The Registered Agent’s primary duties include:
- Providing an Agent office address for Service of Process
- Receiving and reviewing Service of Process
- Acting as a local mailing contact with the Secretary of State and other regulatory agencies.
- Forwarding tax notices and annual reports, when applicable.
If a company were named in a lawsuit, notice would be served upon the Registered Agent, who would immediately notify the designated company contact. This ensures that only the appropriate individual in the company is provided with the Service of Process.
Corporate laws in nearly every state require a Registered Agent for business entities. Most states allow an officer, director or the company itself, to act as the Registered Agent but if you do not have an office in the state, you will still need an address to use for the company’s address in that state. In addition, because of the potentially embarrassing situation of being served on the business premises in front of customers and employees or the possibility that the documents might fall into uninformed hands, most businesses choose to utilize the services of a professional Registered Agent.
