How Do I Change My Nevada Registered Agent?

In Nevada, you may change your registered agent by submitting a Registered Agent Acceptance/Statement of Change form to the Nevada Secretary of State.

When transferring registered agent services, when an agent resigns or goes out of business, or if they choose to function as their own registered agent, a company owner may opt to change their registered agent.

Fill out the Registered Agent Acceptance/Statement of Change form.

The easiest approach to alter your registered agent is to file a Registered Agent Acceptance/Statement of Change with the Nevada Secretary of State.

This may be accomplished through letter, email, fax, or in person.

Fill out the form after downloading it from the Nevada Secretary of State’s website.

After your new agent has signed their permission, send the paperwork and payment using one of the methods listed below:

Commercial Recordings Division, Secretary of State, 202 North Carson St., Carson City, NV 89701-4201

Email:\[email protected]

Fax:\s(775) 684-5725

Fee: $60

This charge may be paid by cheque or credit card. Read the change form for complete instructions.

Please expedite your order.

If you need the Nevada Secretary of State to complete your form more quickly, you must mention such on the payment form attached to the Registered Agent Acceptance/Statement of Change.

Why Should You Change Registered Agents?

A firm may choose to change its registered agent for a variety of reasons, including:

Changing from an Individual Agent to a Registered Agent Service: While people (even a company’s own executives or employees) may operate as registered agents, they will be publicly listed in the state’s database. Some individuals may see this as an invasion of their privacy. Registered agents must also be accessible at their office between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, which might be inconvenient. These concerns are resolved by switching to a registered agent service.
Business Expansion into New States: LLCs, corporations, and other formal business formations must have a registered agent in each state where they do business. Not all registered agents are authorized to act as a registered agent in every state. Some companies would rather have the same registered agent in each state than multiple separate ones.
Customer Contentment: Some changes occur simply because a firm is dissatisfied with its present registered agent, whether the issue is one of pricing, customer service, or job quality.
