What is the registered agent question asking?
It asks whether you have a street address in your formation state where someone can accept legal papers during business hours. Either way, our registered agent is included for your first year.
On this page
A registered agent accepts legal papers for your company. Every company needs one. Ours is included for your first year either way, at no extra charge.
The question
The Registered Agent step asks: "Do you have a street address in your state where someone can accept legal papers during business hours?"
How to answer
- No, use Incorpify's registered agent: you're covered. Our registered agent receives legal papers for your company in your formation state, and you'll see them in your Documents. Included for your first year.
- Yes, I have a street address there: our registered agent is still included for your first year.
We ask now so we know, at renewal, whether you'd like to be your own registered agent.
What happens next
Your registered agent is named on the state filing and becomes active once the state approves it. Home shows this on the Registered agent track, and the Addresses tab of your company page shows its details. See What your registered agent does in your first year.
