About us: DE Registered Agent.org

What DE Registered Agent.org does

Here is what the plan covers.

Pay one annual fee — $99 — for registered agent representation in Delaware. The address goes on your filings, legal mail gets scanned same-day, and we remind you before state deadlines.

• A registered agent of record in Delaware, listed on your state filing.
• We accept service of process and official state mail on your company's behalf.
• Service of process and Secretary of State mail are scanned to your online account, with an email to you.
• Up to 3 other official (legal) letters a year are scanned at no extra charge, for example letters from the IRS.
• Annual report due-date reminders by email.

Pricing

Registered agent service in Delaware: $99/year. It renews automatically each year at $99 unless you turn off auto-renewal or cancel in your online account.

State fees are shown separately from our fee. We collect them with your order and pay them to the state at cost when we file.

What the plan leaves out

• A virtual mailbox or mail forwarding. Everyday business mail is charged per piece to view, legal letters beyond the 3 a year are charged per piece, junk mail is discarded and packages are refused.
• Filing your annual report. That is a separate service with its own fee plus the state's fee.
• State filing fees of any kind.
• Forming the company, or any amendment or reinstatement filing.

On physical mail and privacy: every legal notice and Delaware state letter is received here on your behalf, and listing our address keeps your personal one off public filings. We are built for legal mail, not everyday post. There is no charge to scan service of process the day it lands, a flat $15 to scan any other document, and postage at cost if you want the original in hand.

From sign-up to service

Here's the process:

• We'll provide your registered agent information and Delaware address for your business records
• If you're switching from another registered agent, we'll guide you through filing the change form with the Delaware Secretary of State (the state charges a $50 filing fee)
• You'll receive login credentials for your online document portal
• We'll start receiving and scanning documents immediately

Switching to us from another agent

Change of registered agent to us: $0 our fee + $50 Delaware filing fee = $50. The registered agent service itself is $99/year.

For an LLC, the filing is the Certificate of Amendment Changing Only the Registered Office/Agent of Limited Liability Company, filed with the Delaware Department of State, Division of Corporations under 6 Del. C. §§ 18-202 and 18-1105(a)(11). Delaware does not assign numbers to its forms; the caption is what identifies it, and the caption matters more than you might think. A general certificate of amendment runs $180, while the amendment specifically captioned for a registered office or agent change is only $50. The official form name and fee are published on the Division's certificate of amendment page, and the fillable form itself is the state's PDF packet.

1. Choose a new registered agent who meets Delaware's requirements. An individual agent must be a Delaware resident; an entity agent must keep a business office in the state. Either way, the agent needs a physical Delaware address and general availability during business hours. Delaware even lets a company act as its own agent if it maintains that in-state presence.
2. Fill out the state's agent-change amendment. Download the official form PDF and enter your company name along with the new agent's name and registered office address.
3. Submit the form to the Division of Corporations and pay the $50 fee. The fee goes to the state, not to your new agent. Make sure the filing keeps the agent-only caption so you are charged $50 rather than the $180 general amendment rate.
4. Confirm the change in state records. Once the Division processes the filing, look up your company in the state's entity database and verify the new agent appears.

Delaware rules this covers

Every Delaware LLC, corporation, and limited partnership must keep a registered agent on file with the state. The agent is the official recipient for lawsuits, state notices, and government mail, and Delaware spells out exactly who qualifies in 6 Del. C. § 18-104, the registered office and registered agent statute for LLCs.

Delaware's LLC statute, 6 Del. C. § 18-104, lists four categories of eligible registered agents:

• The LLC itself
• An individual who resides in Delaware
• A domestic entity (a corporation, LLC other than the company itself, partnership, or statutory trust)
• A foreign entity authorized to transact business in Delaware

Our policies

Registered agent service renews automatically for another year on each renewal date, unless you turn off auto-renewal or cancel in your online account, or give written notice at least 30 days before the renewal date. Renewal reminders go out about 60 days ahead.

You can cancel at any time from your online account or by contacting support. Cancelling does not by itself remove us as registered agent on the state record; a change of registered agent or resignation filing does that.

Anything already filed with the government is not refundable. Registered agent fees are not refundable once we or our partner have been appointed with the state. State fees are not refundable once paid to the state.
