Registered Agents in Nevada
Nevada corporations and LLCs are required to have a registered agent located in Nevada. The Nevada registered agent is responsible for receiving important legal and tax documents including service of process (litigation) documents, franchise tax forms, and annual report forms.
A Nevada registered agent is an individual or company located at a street address in Nevada. Post office boxes are not acceptable addresses for a registered agent in Nevada.
If a company, such as BizFilings, is acting as your registered agent they must be registered as a corporation in Nevada. There are a number of advantages to using a registered agent service provider in Nevada, but the advantages differ between large and small companies.
Large companies in Nevada benefit by having service of process and state documents send to their registered agent's office in Nevada. The registered agent follows delivery instructions to ensure that important documents reach the correct individual. Smaller companies in Nevada benefit by providing a consistent Nevada address.
Another advantage to using another company as your Nevada registered agent is that the information of your Nevada registered agent is public record.
