Registered Agent FAQs

Do I need a registered agent to operate my business?

Yes, A Registered Agent is required for all LLCs and corporations. This is the official contact person or company that receives legal and government documents on behalf of your business.

The address must be a physical street address in your state, and someone must be available during normal business hours.

This is an ongoing compliance requirement—meaning you must maintain an active registered agent at all times.

What are the basic requirements for a registered agent?

While exact rules vary by state, these three requirements generally apply:

  • The registered agent must be a resident individual of the state OR a domestic or qualified foreign corporation.

  • The registered agent’s office must have a physical street address in the state (no P.O. Boxes).

  • The registered agent must be available Monday–Friday during normal business hours to receive important legal and state documents.

Can I act as my own registered agent?

Technically, yes—if you have a physical address in your business’s state of formation.
However, there are a few reasons many business owners choose a professional registered agent instead:

  • Availability – Time-sensitive materials require immediate attention, and you may not always be available during business hours
  • Privacy – Acting as your own agent means your business (or personal) address becomes part of the public record.
  • Professional Image – All state correspondence, including legal notices, is sent to the registered agent address. A professional address helps protect your company’s image.
