Alaska Registered Agent for Your LLC

• Registered Agent Requirements Every LLC, both foreign and domestic, must have a Registered Agent with a registered office within the State of Alaska at all times

• The Registered Agent can be a domestic or foreign (licensed to transact business in the state) artificial legal entity (Corporation, LLC, LP or LLP) or a natural person.
• The Registered Office must be in the state of Alaska and located at a street address (a P.O. Box only is not acceptable)
• If the Registered Agent is a person, they must live in Alaska.
• If the Registered Agent is a company, they must be authorized to conduct business in Alaska.
• The Registered Agent must be available in person to sign for any correspondence during normal business hours.

This includes:

• Correspondence from the Alaska Department of Commerce
• Service of process notices (e.g., if your LLC is sued or required to appear in court)
• Tax forms and requests to complete permits, company filings and reports
• Official state and federal government correspondence and notices

• Email notification whenever we receive documents for your business
• An always-available Alaska Registered Agent who can receive correspondence, documents and legal proceedings on your LLC’s behalf
• Automatic forwarding of all legal correspondence, documentation and information directly to you
• A digital dashboard where you can access, store and retrieve any information we’ve received for your business

If you don’t assign or provide details of a Registered Agent to the Alaska DCCED, there are several possible ramifications, including:

• Getting sued or served and not knowing about it. You could lose to a default judgment in your absence if your LLC is sued and you don’t respond.
• Losing your status as an LLC in Alaska. A Registered Agent is evidence to the state that your business exists. Without it, you could lose your business entity protections and your LLC may be dissolved.
• Falling out of good standing with the Alaska DCCED. The state may revoke your right to do business if you don’t respond to certain correspondence (such as a request for your annual report).

• Someone must always be available during business hours at the Alaska address to sign for important documents.
• The Registered Agent’s name and address are part of the public record and available through the Alaska DCCED's website. You should use a Registered Agent service if you prefer that these personal details remain private.
• The Registered Agent must have a physical street address in Alaska. If you’re forming an LLC outside the state, you’ll need to use an in-state Registered Agent.
• If you change your business address or move out of state, you need to file additional documentation with the DCCED for the new address. This isn’t necessary if you use a Registered Agent service, making a move or address change much more straightforward.
