FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT NEVADA REGISTERED AGENT
Who is a Registered Agent, and is it necessary to have a registered agent?
A registered agent is a responsible third-party who is located in the same state in which the business entity is being created. This agent is designated to get all the service of process notices from the Secretary of State and other government notifications for the company. The notices normally include the notice of lawsuits, tax forms and so on. These are all collected by the registered agent on behalf of the LLC or corporation.
If you do not have a physical location in the state in which your business is registered, it is very important for you to get a registered agent who will accept all the documents on your behalf. This means that it cannot be avoided. In short, the state will need a contact person to be available during the business hours. P.O. Boxes are not acceptable as registered agents.
A business that does not choose a registered agent will risk falling out of the “good standing” status with the state in which it has been registered. And the penalties can include revocation, fines, and the inability to enter into legal contracts and/or gain access to the state court system. Furthermore, the reinstatement proceedings include further filings and expenses. So, it is very important that you select a registered agent when forming your company in the USA. IncParadise can help you by being your registered agent. Contact us to know more!

Being an agent, you have to be available during the business hours through the week to accept or sign any notifications or legal documents sent by the state.
