Virtually all states require a company filed in their state to use a registered agent if you do not already have an address in that state.
The Registered Agent must have a physical presence and address. No Post Office Box is allowed. They must be available during normal business hours to assume the responsibility of accepting summons for the corporation, limited liability company (LLC), not for profit corporation, limited partnership or foreign company qualified to do business in the state.
The registered agent is responsible for receiving important legal and tax documents on behalf of the business. Service of Process (sometimes called notice of litigation), which is the document that initiates a lawsuit, is served to the registered agent for a business. Proper handling of and timely response to this document are vital, as not doing so can result in significant adverse consequences to the business.
Additionally, the registered agent often receives mail and tax documents from the state and government on behalf of business. Timely handling of these documents is also important as states typically impose deadlines for the annual report and franchise tax payments. Unlike most registered agents in the state of Delaware, we accept all First Class Mail which is forwarded or scanned at no additional cost to our clients.
Selecting the right registered agent for your business goes beyond satisfying a statutory requirement. The right registered agent can be a partner in helping you promptly and easily address the necessary requirements for your business, which keeps your business in good standing with the state and allows you to concentrate on running and growing your business.
