Questions
What does a Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin?
Yes, if you have a street address in Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin can take the company out of good standing.
How do I change my registered agent in Wisconsin?
File Form 13 Statement of Change with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions and pay $10. When you switch to us, we file it for you.
