Pennsylvania Registered Agent

Pennsylvania Registered Office Requirements

In Pennsylvania, the people working at a registered office are in charge of accepting documents on behalf of a company. Pennsylvania is merely unique in the fact that, unlike other states, they don’t require businesses to submit the names of their agents. Perhaps in Pennsylvania more than other states, companies should consider third-party registered agent companies to serve as their registered office, as business owners can trust knowing these professionals will handle their business needs. Below are the registered office requirements in the state of Pennsylvania, as outlined by the Department of State.

1. The office must be maintained by a domestic filing association or registered foreign association
2. ost office boxes are not acceptable as a mailing address. Only actual street or rural route box numbers may be used

How To Change Your Pennsylvania Registered Office

If you are a business owner in the state of Pennsylvania who is not satisfied with the registered office currently representing your company, it’s possible that you can make a change.

• Hire a New Agent – Before changing the registered office on file with the Department of State, businesses should have a new registered office in place. Not only will this allow for a seamless transition, but it also helps ensure that a company remains in good standing with the state.
• File the Required Change of Agent Paperwork with the Pennsylvania Department of State – Once a business has determined where their new registered office will be located, they can begin to file a Change of Registered Office form. Not only must they provide the current address, but they must also give the new address. Unfortunately, Pennsylvania business owners are not able to make this change on their annual report.
• Pay the Filing Fee – Domestic organizations must pay $5 to file Change of Registered Office paperwork, while foreign organizations must pay $250. The fee is nonrefundable.
