Registered Agent Requirements in Vermont
Vermont law requires every LLC and corporation registered in the state to maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in Vermont. The Vermont 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.
What Vermont Businesses Need to Know
Vermont requires LLCs and corporations to file periodic reports with the Vermont Secretary of State. Your annual report is due Anniversary month (annually) with a filing fee of $35 (LLCs). Missing this deadline results in late fees and can lead to loss of good standing.
Your registered agent plays an important role in compliance because the Vermont Secretary of State sends annual report reminders and compliance notices to your registered agent address. If your registered agent is not reliably receiving and forwarding these notices, you may miss critical deadlines.
Changing Your Registered Agent in VT
If you currently have a registered agent in Vermont and want to switch to CrowSmart, the process involves filing a change of agent form with the Vermont Secretary of State and paying a filing fee of $25. 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.
