What is a Connecticut registered agent?
Businesses that register as legal entities are required by law in all 50 states to have a registered agent, resident agent, or statutory agent. A Connecticut registered agent is the designated recipient of service of process (SOP) when a business entity faces legal action, and receives official legal documents from the state regarding the company's operation within Connecticut. A Connecticut business must identify its registered agent in its articles of incorporation or organization.
Why are registered agents required for Connecticut businesses?
Having a registered agent is a requirement for Connecticut corporations and LLCs, and the same requirement generally extends to limited partnerships, LLPs, LLLPs, nonprofit corporations, professional entities, and other businesses formed or registered by filing with the state. The agent must be located and available at a physical street address within Connecticut during normal business hours — a mailbox service or P.O. Box cannot represent you. Failing to establish and maintain a registered agent can jeopardize your company's legal status in the state and lead to unnecessary expense.

Appointing InCorp as your Connecticut registered agent
- Connecticut does not require original signatures.
- Online filings are available for all filings in Connecticut.
- Connecticut does not offer expedited service because the online filings are completed immediately.
- The Connecticut Registered Agent change filing fee is $50 (Conn. Gen. Stat. § 33-617(a)(4)).

Connecticut Registered Agents are a person or company designated on public record to accept legal documents (service of process) and notifications from the Connecticut Secretary of State's office on behalf of the corporate entity. There are few restrictions regarding who can be listed as a Registered Agent, the most important being that the Registered Agent must be located and available at a physical street address, within the state of Connecticut, during normal business hours.
- Your Connecticut Registered Agent will be responsible, on your behalf, to receive all government notifications sent to Registered Agents and litigation (service of process) documents. In Connecticut, InCorp's address is for Registered Agent service only.
The law behind it
Connecticut's registered-agent framework, quoted directly from the state code.
Conn. Gen. Stat. § 33-660 Connecticut Business Corporation Act — Corporations
“(a) Each corporation that is required to file an annual report as provided in section 33-953 shall continuously maintain in this state: (1) A registered office that may be the same as any of its places of business; and (2) a registered agent at such registered office, who may be: (A) A natural person who is a resident of this state; (B) a domestic corporation; (C) a foreign corporation which has procured a certificate of authority to transact business or conduct its affairs in this state; (D) a domestic limited liability company; [...] The appointment of such registered agent shall be in writing and shall be signed by the registered agent therein appointed. [...]”
Conn. Gen. Stat. § 34-243n Connecticut Uniform Limited Liability Company Act — LLCs
“(a) Each limited liability company and each registered foreign limited liability company shall designate and maintain a registered agent in this state. The designation of a registered agent is an affirmation of fact by the limited liability company or registered foreign limited liability company that the agent has consented to serve as agent. [...] (e) A registered agent for a limited liability company or registered foreign limited liability company shall have a place of business in this state.”
