Minnesota does not charge a fee for LLC annual renewals, though the filing is still required by December 31 each year. The state has one of the highest income tax rates but offsets this with no annual renewal fees for LLCs.

Physical Address Requirement

No P.O. Boxes allowed

Minnesota requires your registered agent to have a physical street address (not a P.O. Box) within the state. This ensures that legal documents from the Minnesota Secretary of State and Minnesota courts can be physically delivered and received.

Business Hours Availability

9 AM - 5 PM, Mon-Fri

Your Minnesota registered agent must be available during normal business hours (9 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday) to accept service of process and official correspondence from the Minnesota Secretary of State.

Ongoing Maintenance

Continuous requirement

Minnesota requires you to maintain a registered agent throughout your business's existence. If you change agents, you must file an update with the Minnesota Secretary of State (filing fee: $35) to stay in compliance.

Multi-State Considerations

One per state

If your Minnesota-based business operates in other states through foreign qualification, you'll need a registered agent in each state. CrowSmart provides registered agent services in all 50 states, simplifying multi-state compliance.
