Indiana 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 Indiana 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 Indiana 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 Indiana.
• If the Registered Agent is a company, they must be authorized to conduct business in Indiana.
• The Registered Agent must be available in person to sign for any correspondence during normal business hours.

This includes:

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

• An intuitive digital dashboard where you can access, store, and retrieve any information we’ve received for your business
• An always-available Indiana 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
• Email notification whenever we receive documents for your business

If you don’t assign or provide details of a Registered Agent to the Secretary of State, 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.
• Falling out of good standing with the Indiana Secretary of State. The state may revoke your right to do business if you don’t respond to certain correspondence (such as a request for your biennial business entity report).
• Losing your status as an LLC in Indiana. 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.

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