MO REQUIREMENTS

Registered Agent Requirements in Missouri

Missouri law requires every LLC and corporation registered in the state to maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in Missouri. The Missouri Secretary of State is the state agency responsible for business filings and registered agent records.

Your registered agent must be available during normal business hours (9 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday) to accept service of process, tax notices, and official state correspondence. A P.O. Box is not acceptable as a registered agent address.

Missouri requires continuous registered agent coverage. If your registered agent becomes unavailable and you do not appoint a replacement, the Missouri Secretary of Statemay revoke your business's good standing or initiate administrative dissolution proceedings.

What Missouri Businesses Need to Know

Missouri does not require LLCs to file annual reports, which reduces your ongoing compliance obligations. However, you are still required to maintain a registered agent with a physical Missouri address at all times.

Even without annual report requirements, your registered agent still receives important documents including service of process, tax notices, and any official state correspondence from the Missouri Secretary of State.

Changing Your Registered Agent in MO

If you currently have a registered agent in Missouri and want to switch to CrowSmart, the process involves filing a change of agent form with the Missouri Secretary of State and paying a filing fee of $10. The change typically takes effect as soon as the state processes the filing.

When you sign up with CrowSmart, we prepare and file the change of agent form on your behalf at no additional cost. You do not need to notify your previous registered agent separately.

Key Takeaway

Missouri requires every LLC and corporation to maintain a registered agent with a physical in-state address. Using CrowSmart protects your personal privacy, ensures reliable document receipt, and keeps your business in good standing with the Missouri Secretary of State.
