About CT Registered Agent.org

The service

The plan covers the following.

Dependable registered agent service throughout Connecticut — $99 annually. That fee covers the office address, scanning of legal correspondence, and reminders for state filings.

• A registered agent of record in Connecticut, 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.

Where mail and privacy are concerned, every legal notice and Connecticut 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.

Price and what the plan covers

Registered agent service in Connecticut: $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.

Outside the plan

• 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.

Connecticut registered agent rules

A registered agent is the person or company that accepts lawsuits, service of process, and official government mail on behalf of your Connecticut business. The requirement isn't a custom or a best practice; it's written into Conn. Gen. Stat. § 34-243n, and every Connecticut LLC and corporation has to satisfy it.

The statute is direct about the core rule: a registered agent "shall have a place of business in this state" (Conn. Gen. Stat. § 34-243n(e)). In practice, Connecticut asks for a street address for the registered office itself (a business or residence address, never a PO box) and separately collects a Connecticut mailing address, where a PO box is fine.

Getting started

• We'll provide your registered agent information and Connecticut address for your business records
• If you're switching from another registered agent, we'll walk you through the Change of Agent filing (Form BUS-09) with the Connecticut Secretary of the State (the state charges a $50 filing fee for LLCs and corporations)
• You'll get login credentials for your online document portal
• We'll start receiving and scanning documents immediately

Already have an agent?

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

Connecticut's change filing is the Change of Agent form, Form BUS-09 (the domestic version covers every entity type except limited partnerships). It's filed with the Secretary of the State's Business Services Division, either online through business.ct.gov or on the official paper form, which you can download as a fillable PDF.

1. Choose a new registered agent who qualifies under Connecticut law: an individual who lives in Connecticut, or a business entity registered with the state that has a Connecticut address.
2. Fill out Form BUS-09 (or the equivalent online filing at business.ct.gov) with your entity's name, the outgoing agent, and the new agent's Connecticut street address.
3. Have the new agent sign the acceptance section of the filing.
4. Submit it to the Secretary of the State and pay the $50 state fee ($20 if your entity is a nonprofit corporation).
5. Search for your business in the state's records afterward to confirm the new agent is listed.

Quick answers

Why does my Connecticut business need a registered agent?

Connecticut law generally expects all registered business entities—including LLCs, corporations, and limited partnerships—to maintain a registered agent. This ensures the state and courts have a reliable way to deliver important legal notices and documents to your business.

What's included in the $99 annual fee?

Everything: a registered office address in Connecticut, lawsuit imaging service for Connecticut, compliance reminders and alerts, online document portal access, and privacy protection. No hidden fees.

Is mail forwarding or a virtual mailbox included?

No. We are not a virtual mailbox or mail forwarding service. 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. Service of process and state mail are scanned to your online account at no extra charge.

Why do individual registered agents in Connecticut have to disclose their home address?

Connecticut law requires individual registered agents to disclose their residential address, which becomes part of the public record. This is one reason many business owners choose a professional registered agent service—it keeps their home address private.

How do I sign up?

Visit our checkout page to get started. We'll collect your business information, provide your registered agent address for state filings, and set up your online document portal. If you're switching from another agent, we'll guide you through the change process.

Billing, cancellation and refunds

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.
