Questions
What does a Missouri registered agent do?
Receives lawsuits, subpoenas and official mail from the state for your company, and passes them on right away. Its address is on public record.
Can I be my own registered agent in Missouri?
Yes, if you have a street address in Missouri and are there during business hours. That address goes on public record, which is why many owners use a service.
What happens if I don't keep one?
You can miss a lawsuit and lose by default, and Missouri can take the company out of good standing.
How do I change my registered agent in Missouri?
File a change of agent with the Missouri Secretary of State and pay $10. When you switch to us, we file it for you.
