What Is a Registered Agent?

A registered agent may go by a different name, such as a resident agent or statutory agent, depending on the state in which you run your business. They all provide the same services for businesses, though, regardless of the name. A Missouri registered agent is an individual or legal entity that is the officially designated recipient of legal documents from the state on behalf of your business. They are also responsible for receiving service of process (SOP) communications if your business should be involved in litigation brought forth by a third party. Businesses registered as legal entities are legally required in all 50 states to have a registered agent and list them within their articles of incorporation/organization. Registered agents protect your business from missing important legal documents from the state or service of process communications from third parties should your business have a lawsuit brought against it. Having a registered agent is an essential part of responsibly operating a business that is in compliance with the law.

What Services Does a Missouri Registered Agent Provide for Businesses?

Having a registered agent is a requirement every time you register a new Missouri corporation or LLC. You must select a reliable company to act as your Missouri registered agent. Failing to establish and maintain a registered agent can have negative effects on the legal status of your company within the state and result in extra, unnecessary expenses. The person or entity must be located and available at a physical street address within the state of Missouri during normal business hours. A mailbox service or P.O. Box cannot represent you as your registered agent.

How Registered Agent Service Can Help Your Business

  • Legal Notifications

    Your Missouri registered agent provides an official address within Missouri where important legal documents can safely and securely be sent, such as your annual filing notices and SOP (service of process). This would avoid the risk of losing this important mail if you were to have it sent to your home or business location. In addition, upon receiving these important legal notifications, a registered agent will handle them correctly and responsibly in compliance with the law and any required legal procedures.

  • Flexibility

    With a Missouri registered agent, you will comply with the law by always receiving official legal notices during standard business hours at a designated Missouri address provided by your registered agent. This service allows for flexibility in how you choose to operate your business. You will not need to be always present during standard business hours to receive official mail or even have a physical business location. If you have a physical business location, you will not need to update your address with the state if you decide to relocate.

This service can help protect your privacy regarding your home address.

Having a registered agent is required in almost every state. The purpose is for the state to show a physical address in that state at which the company can be served with legal documents. We also receive notifications from many states and help you keep your company in good standing. An added benefit is the security of knowing InCorp is here to fulfill this requirement and provide you with a little more privacy.

Learn More

When hiring InCorp as your commercial registered agent, we do not automatically file your documents to register your entity with the state. Formation and qualification filings are separate services, and we will be happy to prepare the entire filing for you once the additional service has been purchased. Our order processing team members will automatically provide consent forms for the states that require them, and we're here to help with Registered Agent Change forms at no additional charge if you'd like our assistance.

In most cases, yes, but we do require that you also be filed with the Secretary of State. Some agencies have requirements that we can't meet, like an address in a specific county or an individual serving instead of InCorp as a company. If you send over the document we'll review it to make sure we can meet the requirements.

The first thing is to order service. Once your order is placed and you have received the confirmation email, please contact our order processing team to proceed. Some states require our signature but it does not have to be a mailed original so you can just reply to your order confirmation with the document attached and we'll sign and return it to you. Other states require our original signature, in which case you can email us the document, we will sign it and mail it to you for submission to the state. Alternatively, you can mail us the complete package of documents and state payment and we will sign and forward the package to the state for you. A few states, like Wyoming, require a separate Registered Agent Consent form. We'll send that directly to you after your order is placed. Please call our order processing team or email us with any additional questions or concerns.

The general rule is that InCorp only serves as a Missouri registered agent for entities registered with the Secretary of State. We can serve for other agencies as well but need to be listed with the Secretary of State, also. When looking for a registered agent for an individual, we recommend using an attorney or law office.
