Each domestic and foreign Business Corporation, Nonprofit Corporation, Limited Liability Company, Limited Partnership and Limited Liability Partnership registered on the NC Business Registry is required to have a current Registered Agent and Registered Agent Office of record with the North Carolina Secretary of State’s Office. This guarantees that legal documents and notices can actually be delivered to the business.

Note: You are required to update the Registered Agent Name and Office within 60 days of any change in the information.

Not updating this information will provide the North Carolina Secretary of State with grounds for administrative dissolution. View the FAQ on Administrative Dissolutions for more information.
