Georgia Registered Agent

Georgia registered agents are required when registering to do business in Georgia.

What is a Georgia Registered Agent?

A Georgia registered agent is a business that is listed on your corporate paperwork with the state as responsible for accepting legal notices on your behalf. Georgia registered agents must have a real physical location in Georgia and be present at that address during normal business hours. Although most of the time a sheriff or process server will be delivering the notice to the Georgia registered agents address, mailing a letter to the person or business listed as the Georgia resident agent at the Georgia registered office address is legal proof that you have been notified, regardless of whether or not you received the notice.

The Georgia registered agents duty is to be open and present at the business address listed as the GA registered office address during normal business hours. Any mail from the state that has been returned to them will be sent to the Georgia resident agents address.

What types of businesses are required to have Georgia Registered Agents?

A Georgia LLC, out of state LLC, a Georgia corporation, an out of state corporation, a non-profit corporation or organization, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, or any other Georgia business entity is required to have a Georgia registered agent and Georgia registered office.
