Choosing a Registered Agent
A registered agent ensures you get legal notices, helps avoid penalties and is available during business hours so you don’t have to be. Look for an established company with positive reviews and experience with LLC services when finding an agent.
Registered Agent in Minnesota
To serve as a registered agent in Minnesota, you must:
- Reside there or be a corporation/LLC authorized to do business there
- Have a physical Minnesota address to accept service of process during business hours
As the owner, you can be your own registered agent by listing your name and address on the LLC formation documents. However, this makes your personal address public. Most states require a physical street address, not a P.O. box. The registered agent must also be available during normal business hours.
Main Roles of a Registered Agent
A registered agent’s main roles are to receive legal documents like service of process for the business, helping to maintain legal separation between a business and the owners’ personal assets.
You can serve as your own registered agent, but non-residents cannot be their own registered agents; they must enlist a Minnesota resident. Consider the public disclosure and availability requirements before deciding. Using a professional service may suit your needs better.
