What is a Registered Agent?
Virtually all states require corporations and LLCs to appoint a registered agent in the state where the company is formed. The registered agent is responsible for receiving important legal and tax documents including: notice of litigation (service of process), franchise tax forms and annual report forms.

The registered agent may be an individual able to act as agent, located at a street address in the state where the company is formed. The registered agent's name and address are included in the articles of incorporation and this information is a matter of public record.

Appointing BizFilings as your registered agent allows your company the assurance that this important service is handled correctly and efficiently.

Service Description
