What Is a Colorado Registered Agent?
A registered agent in Colorado is the individual or entity formally designated by a filing entity to receive service of process, legal notices, and official government correspondence on the entity’s behalf within the state. The term is defined in § 7-90-102(55), C.R.S., as the person required to be maintained by each covered entity, with related definitions for registered agent address and registered agent name appearing at subsections (56) and (56.5) of the same section. The registered agent address is the physical street address in Colorado where the agent may be personally served; the registered agent name is the name under which the agent appears in the Secretary of State’s records.
The governing framework is Part 7 of Article 90 of Title 7 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, which constitutes the Colorado Corporations and Associations Act. That part establishes the registered agent obligation, sets eligibility and address requirements, governs changes and resignations, and provides the rules for service of process when no agent is available. Every domestic entity for which a constituent filed a document is on file with the Secretary of State, and every foreign entity authorized to transact business or conduct activities in Colorado must continuously maintain a registered agent in the state under § 7-90-701, C.R.S.
The registered agent serves as the entity’s official legal contact within Colorado—a designated person and location through which courts and government agencies can reliably reach the entity. The registered agent address must be a physical street address in Colorado; post office boxes and commercial mail-drop addresses do not satisfy this requirement.
What Does a Colorado Registered Agent Do?
A Colorado registered agent’s primary function is to receive and forward to the entity any documents delivered by courts, government agencies, or other authorized parties. As stated in § 7-90-704(1), C.R.S., the registered agent “is an agent of the entity authorized to receive service of any process, notice, or demand required or permitted by law to be served on the entity.” The same statute confirms that the registered agent is also the person to whom the Secretary of State may deliver any form, notice, or other document with respect to the entity.
The range of documents a registered agent handles extends beyond a summons initiating litigation. The agent receives all manner of time-sensitive legal and administrative material, as identified in the Registered Agent Business FAQs. The table below summarizes the principal document categories:
| Document Category | Examples |
| Service of process | Summons, complaint, subpoena |
| Active litigation documents | Motions, discovery requests, court orders |
| Creditor and garnishment proceedings | Notice of garnishment against an employee |
| Government correspondence | Periodic report due-date notices, tax notifications |
| Formal legal notices | Demand letters, statutory notices |
| Other compliance-related documents | Regulatory correspondence, government inquiries |
Each of these items contains time-sensitive information requiring prompt action by the entity. If a summons is served on the registered agent and the entity fails to respond within the court-prescribed deadline, the court may enter a default judgment against the entity even if the underlying claim was without merit. The registered agent must therefore be physically present and available at the registered agent’s address during normal business hours to personally accept documents on every business day.
Colorado Registered Agent Requirements
Colorado requires every registered domestic entity and every foreign entity authorized to transact business in the state to continuously maintain a registered agent, as established by § 7-90-701, C.R.S. Distinct eligibility conditions apply to individuals and entities, and separate physical requirements govern the registered agent address.
Registered Agent Address Requirements
The registered agent address must be a physical street address in Colorado that is customarily open during normal business hours. The location must be one at which the agent can personally accept documents for the entity. The following conditions apply:
- Must be a specific physical street address, including street number, street name, and suite or unit number if applicable.
- Must be located in Colorado.
- Must be open and staffed during normal business hours.
- A post office box or commercial mail-drop address does not satisfy the street address requirement.
- A separate Colorado mailing address may be provided if mail cannot be delivered to the physical street address.
Individual Eligibility
Effective July 1, 2025, pursuant to House Bill 24-1137, an individual serving as a registered agent must satisfy all of the following conditions:
- Be at least 18 years of age.
- Have either a primary residence in Colorado or a usual place of business in Colorado.
- Hold a current, valid Colorado driver’s license or state-issued identification card. When designating such an individual, the filer must enter the agent’s name and ID number exactly as they appear on the license or card.
An individual without a Colorado driver’s license or identification card may still qualify by completing the Secretary of State’s alternative residency verification process: requesting an agent passcode, submitting acceptable documentation (such as a utility bill, bank statement, mortgage statement, or government-issued correspondence dated within the last 90 days), and entering the approved passcode into the filing system to complete the transaction. Passcodes expire 45 calendar days after issuance.
Entity Eligibility
An entity serving as a registered agent must meet all of the following requirements:
- Be in good standing in the Secretary of State’s records, verifiable through the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database.
- Maintain a usual place of business in Colorado.
- If a foreign entity holds the current authority to transact business in Colorado.
The table below summarizes eligibility conditions by agent type:
| Agent Type | Age Requirement | Colorado Presence | Additional Condition |
| Individual | 18 or older | Primary residence or usual place of business | Valid Colorado driver’s license or ID card, or passcode verification |
| Domestic entity | — | Usual place of business | Good standing with the Secretary of State |
| Foreign entity | — | Usual place of business | Authority to transact business in Colorado |
Consent Requirement
Any filing document that appoints a registered agent must include a statement affirming that the designated agent has consented to the appointment. The Secretary of State cannot be appointed as a registered agent, and only one agent may be designated per entity at any given time.
Is a Registered Agent Required in Colorado?
Yes. Colorado law mandates that virtually all entities registered with the Secretary of State maintain a registered agent with a Colorado address at all times. The obligation applies from the date a constituent filed document is placed on record and continues for the life of the entity. Almost all entities on record with the Secretary of State must have a registered agent listed with a Colorado address, even if the business itself is physically located in another state, as confirmed in the Registered Agent Business FAQs.
Domestic entities that fall into delinquent status are not relieved of the registered agent obligation; official guidance specifies that domestic entities must retain a registered agent even while in delinquent status. Foreign entities withdrawing from Colorado may elect whether to continue maintaining a registered agent after withdrawal; if they elect not to, the Secretary of State directs correspondence to the principal office address on file.
Why Do I Need a Registered Agent in Colorado?
Colorado requires a registered agent because the state and its courts must have a legally effective and geographically certain method of delivering process, notices, and compliance correspondence to each registered entity. A designated in-state agent with a fixed physical address ensures that service reaches the entity through a known channel.
When no registered agent is available to receive service of process, § 7-90-704(2), C.R.S. permits the plaintiff to serve the entity by registered mail or certified mail addressed to the entity’s principal address. A mail-based service is less likely to produce a timely response, and the entity may not receive the notice in time to file an answer or appear. A court may then enter a default judgment against the entity even if the underlying claim was without merit, and by the time such a judgment is enforced against the entity’s assets, it may be too late to undo the damage, as the Registered Agent Business FAQs makes clear.
Beyond litigation risk, the absence of a registered agent or the failure to timely update agent information can result in the entity being declared delinquent under § 7-90-901, C.R.S., with consequences for its ability to operate, bring suit, or expand into other states. The registered agent’s name and address also appear in the public business database, forming part of the entity’s official record that third parties, lenders, and regulators may review.
Who Can Be a Registered Agent in Colorado?
- 7-90-701(1), C.R.S. identifies three categories of persons eligible to serve as a registered agent for a Colorado entity, each with distinct qualifying conditions:
- Individual — A natural person who is at least 18 years of age, maintains a primary residence or usual place of business in Colorado, and holds a current, valid Colorado driver’s license or identification card (or verifies Colorado residency through the Secretary of State’s alternative passcode process).
- Domestic entity — An entity organized under Colorado law that is in good standing with the Secretary of State and maintains a usual place of business in Colorado.
- Foreign entity — An entity formed under the laws of another jurisdiction that holds authority to transact business in Colorado and maintains a usual place of business in Colorado.
An entity that has a usual place of business in Colorado and is in good standing may also serve as its own registered agent under § 7-90-701(2), C.R.S. This self-appointment requires a two-step filing process: the entity must first designate an eligible individual or another qualifying entity as its initial registered agent at formation, and then file a separate change to designate itself. The Secretary of State cannot be appointed as a registered agent, and only one agent may be designated per entity at any time.
Can I Be My Own Registered Agent in Colorado?
Yes. An owner, officer, member, director, or other individual associated with a Colorado business may serve as the entity’s registered agent, provided that person satisfies all individual eligibility conditions under § 7-90-701(1)(a), C.R.S. The individual must be at least 18 years of age, must have a primary residence or usual place of business in Colorado, and must hold a valid Colorado driver’s license or identification card—or complete the alternative passcode verification process through the Secretary of State’s office.
Self-appointment as a registered agent carries administrative consequences that arise directly from the statutory requirements. Because the registered agent’s name and physical street address are published in the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database, an individual who uses a residential address as the registered agent address makes that address part of the entity’s publicly searchable record. The registered agent must also be physically present at the designated address during normal business hours on every business day to accept service of process in person; an individual who travels frequently, works remotely, or operates from multiple locations may not consistently meet this availability standard.
Any change in the individual’s Colorado address, driver’s license status, or residency must be reflected through a timely change filing with the Secretary of State, or the entity risks maintaining inaccurate registered agent information in the public record. Finally, if the designated individual leaves the business, relocates outside Colorado, or otherwise becomes unavailable, the entity must promptly file a replacement designation to avoid a lapse that could result in delinquent status under § 7-90-901, C.R.S.
Benefits of a Professional Colorado Registered Agent Service
A professional registered agent service is a commercial entity or individual that serves as a registered agent for multiple Colorado business entities on an ongoing basis. Such providers may be listed as commercial registered agents in the Secretary of State’s records pursuant to § 7-90-707, C.R.S., which permits a registered agent to become listed as a commercial registered agent by delivering a commercial registered agent listing statement to the Secretary of State for filing. That statement must include the registered agent’s name, registered agent address, and the email address to be used for notifications from the Secretary of State.
From an operational standpoint, a commercial registered agent maintains a qualifying physical street address in Colorado that is staffed during normal business hours on every business day, thereby satisfying the availability requirement of the usual-place-of-business standard without requiring the entity’s own personnel to be present. This arrangement separates the registered agent address from the entity’s principal office address or any residential address associated with the entity’s owners or officers. When the entity’s own address changes, when its personnel change, or when it conducts business from multiple locations across the state, the registered agent address on file with the Secretary of State remains stable and unaffected by those internal transitions.
A commercial registered agent may also be designated for multiple Colorado entities simultaneously, which may be relevant for businesses operating through several affiliated entities or for attorneys and organizers who manage registrations for multiple clients. The Secretary of State makes available, upon request, a listing of filings made during the previous month that contain the name of a commercial registered agent, as provided in § 7-90-710, C.R.S.
Hiring a Colorado Registered Agent Before or After Formation?
A registered agent must be designated when a domestic entity is formed or when a foreign entity seeks authority to transact business in Colorado. The initial registered agent designation is made directly within the formation or registration filing—it is not a separate, subsequent step. An entity cannot complete its Articles of Organization, Articles of Incorporation, or Statement of Foreign Entity Authority without designating a registered agent whose consent has been obtained. The formation filing is rejected if no registered agent is named.
Because the agent must be identified at the point of filing, the selection must be made before or at the time of submission. Once the entity is active in the Secretary of State’s records, a change of registered agent may be made at any time by filing a Statement of Change Changing the Registered Agent Information online through the Secretary of State’s filing portal, or by including the updated information in the entity’s annual Periodic Report. Each method requires the new agent’s consent and costs $10.00 per the Business Organizations Fee Schedule when filed as a standalone statement of change.
The registered agent designation made at formation remains in effect indefinitely unless the entity files a change, the agent resigns, or the agent’s information is corrected through a statement of correction. Entities that change addresses, restructure ownership, or transition from self-managed to professionally managed operations commonly update their registered agent at those points.
How to Appoint a Registered Agent in Colorado
The registered agent is designated as part of every initial formation or foreign-entity registration filing. The steps below describe the process for a domestic LLC or corporation filing online through the Secretary of State’s portal; the process for other entity types follows the same sequence with entity-specific form titles.
- Navigate to the Business Organizations page on the Secretary of State’s website and select the appropriate formation filing—Articles of Organization for an LLC or Articles of Incorporation for a corporation.
- Complete the formation form, which includes a designated field for the registered agent’s name (individual or entity name) and the registered agent’s physical street address in Colorado.
- Confirm that the agent has consented to the appointment by marking the consent affirmation checkbox on the form. This confirmation is required under § 7-90-701(3), C.R.S., and the filing will not be accepted without it.
- If designating an individual agent, enter the agent’s Colorado driver’s license or identification card number exactly as it appears on the document. If the individual lacks a Colorado ID, select the passcode verification option and follow the alternative process before completing the filing.
- Review all form entries and submit the filing online. Pay the applicable formation fee at the time of submission.
- Receive confirmation from the Secretary of State upon filing acceptance; the registered agent information will appear in the entity’s public record in the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database.
The following table identifies the primary formation and registration filings by entity type, together with the applicable online filing fee from the Business Organizations Fee Schedule:
| Entity Type | Formation / Registration Filing | Online Fee |
| Limited liability company | Articles of Organization | $50.00 |
| Profit corporation | Articles of Incorporation for a Profit Corporation | $50.00 |
| Nonprofit corporation | Articles of Incorporation for a Nonprofit Corporation | $50.00 |
| Foreign entity (all types) | Statement of Foreign Entity Authority | $100.00 |
| Certificate of Limited Partnership | Certificate of Limited Partnership | $50.00 |
Paper filings are not available for most entity formation documents in Colorado; the Secretary of State’s system processes domestic entity formations exclusively through the online portal. No expedited processing fee applies to online formation filings; expedited service is available only for paper filings at an additional fee of $150.00.
How to Choose a Colorado Registered Agent
Selecting a registered agent for a Colorado entity involves evaluating several legally grounded criteria that flow directly from the state’s eligibility and address requirements.
Eligibility — The agent must satisfy the conditions set out in § 7-90-701, C.R.S. An individual must be at least 18, hold a Colorado driver’s license or identification card or complete the passcode process, and have a primary residence or usual place of business in Colorado. An entity must be in good standing and maintain a usual place of business in the state. Designating a person who does not meet these requirements results in a filing that may be placed in a review queue or rejected.
Colorado physical address — The registered agent address must be a physical street address in Colorado that is staffed and accessible during normal business hours. An agent whose address does not satisfy the usual-place-of-business standard—open during normal business hours, capable of accepting personal delivery—does not fulfill the statutory requirement regardless of whether the address is technically located in Colorado.
Public record implications — The registered agent’s name and physical street address are published in the Secretary of State’s public business database. Entities whose owners or officers prefer that a residential or private address not appear in publicly searchable records may give weight to this factor when deciding whether to self-appoint or designate a separate agent.
Availability and continuity — The registered agent must be available to accept service of process in person during normal business hours throughout the year. Any gap in the agent’s availability—whether due to travel, relocation, change in employment, or other circumstances—creates a period during which the entity may not receive timely notice of legal proceedings. Entities that anticipate changes in personnel or address should consider whether the designated agent can maintain uninterrupted availability over the long term.
Multi-entity capability — An individual or entity may serve as a registered agent for multiple Colorado entities simultaneously. Organizations that operate through multiple affiliated entities may find it administratively consistent to designate a single agent across all registrations, provided that agent satisfies all eligibility requirements for each entity.
Consequences of No Registered Agent in Colorado
An entity that fails to maintain a registered agent in Colorado, or that allows its registered agent information to become inaccurate, faces a defined sequence of consequences rooted in § 7-90-901, C.R.S., and the delinquency framework described in the Secretary of State’s Business FAQs — Delinquency page.
Trigger — Under § 7-90-901(1)(c), C.R.S., a domestic reporting entity may be declared delinquent if it does not comply with Part 7 of Article 90, which governs registered agents. The same ground applies to foreign reporting entities under § 7-90-901(2)(c), C.R.S. Failure to appoint a new registered agent after the resignation of the current agent is a recognized basis for delinquency.
Noncompliant status — Before reaching full delinquency, an entity that fails to file its Periodic Report—which must confirm current registered agent information—first enters Noncompliant status. A noncompliant entity has a defined window to cure the deficiency before the status escalates.
Delinquent status — If the deficiency is not cured within the applicable window, the entity’s status changes to Delinquent. After 400 days in delinquent status, the entity’s name is amended in the Secretary of State’s records to include the word “delinquent” and the date of delinquency, and the original entity name becomes available for use by another entity.
Cure — An entity in delinquent status may return to good standing by filing a Statement Curing Delinquency online through the Secretary of State’s portal at a fee of $100.00. Entities that have been delinquent for five or more years face additional requirements under § 7-90-904(1)(c)(III), C.R.S., including submission of an affidavit and government-issued photo identification for review by the Secretary of State’s office before the filing is accepted.
Secondary consequences — A delinquent entity may lose the ability to bring a lawsuit in Colorado, may be unable to expand into other states, and may be ineligible for financing, as identified in the Registered Agent Business FAQs. An entity in delinquent status also remains exposed to the service-of-process risk described in § 7-90-704(2), C.R.S., which permits a plaintiff to serve the entity by registered or certified mail when no agent is available—a method that may not produce a timely response and may result in a default judgment.
Is Colorado Registered Agent Information Public Record?
Yes. The registered agent’s name and physical street address are part of the entity’s official record maintained by the Secretary of State and are accessible to the public through the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database. This database is freely searchable without creating an account or paying a fee. The registered agent address entered at formation or updated through a subsequent change filing appears on the entity’s summary page alongside the entity name, entity ID number, principal office address, and formation date.
Because the registered agent address is public, any physical street address designated as the registered agent address—including a residential address—becomes visible to anyone who searches the entity’s record. The registered agent name, whether an individual name or an entity name, is similarly displayed. This public visibility is a direct consequence of the statutory requirement that each entity maintain a registered agent address of record, and it persists for as long as the agent designation remains current.
How to Search for a Colorado Registered Agent
The Secretary of State provides public search access to all registered business entity records, including registered agent information, through the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database. The search system accepts multiple input types and returns entity summary pages that display the current registered agent name and address. Additional search tips are available on the Secretary of State’s website.
To locate a registered agent for a specific entity, follow these steps:
- Go to the Colorado Secretary of State Business Database.
- Enter the entity’s name, trade name, or 11-digit ID number in the search field and click Search.
- From the list of results, select the ID number of the entity whose registered agent information is sought.
- On the entity’s Summary page, locate the registered agent fields, which display the current registered agent name, registered agent street address, and registered agent mailing address if one is on file.
To search for all entities associated with a specific registered agent by name, the Secretary of State’s Advanced Search tool allows filtering by registered agent name. Commercial registered agents who have filed a commercial registered agent listing statement may also appear in the Commercial Registered Agent Report, which can be requested in CSV format by entering the agent’s business or individual name.
How to Become a Colorado Registered Agent
Any individual or entity that satisfies the eligibility requirements of § 7-90-701, C.R.S. may serve as a registered agent in Colorado without obtaining a separate license or prior approval from the state. There is no standalone registration requirement for non-commercial agents; the agent’s name and address simply appear in an entity’s filing when the entity designates that person.
A person or entity that intends to serve as a registered agent for multiple Colorado entities on a commercial basis may voluntarily become listed as a commercial registered agent by filing a commercial registered agent listing statement with the Secretary of State pursuant to § 7-90-707, C.R.S. That statement must include the registered agent’s name and Colorado street address, the email address to be used for Secretary of State notifications, and a list of the entities represented by the agent at the time of filing. The statement may not state a delayed effective date. Once listed, a commercial registered agent’s name appears in the Secretary of State’s commercial registered agent records, and the Secretary of State makes available a monthly list of new filings designating that agent’s name under § 7-90-710, C.R.S.
Whether acting commercially or otherwise, an individual agent must hold a current, valid Colorado driver’s license or identification card, or have completed the alternative passcode verification process, before being designated on any filing accepted on or after July 1, 2025. An entity agent must be in good standing in the Secretary of State’s records at all times it serves in that capacity.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can a limited liability company serve as its own registered agent in Colorado?
Yes. An LLC that is in good standing in the Secretary of State’s records and maintains a usual place of business in Colorado may serve as its own registered agent under § 7-90-701(2), C.R.S. This is a two-step process. During initial formation, the LLC must designate an eligible individual or another qualifying entity as the registered agent because the LLC does not yet exist as a registered entity at the time of the initial filing. After the Articles of Organization are accepted and the LLC appears in the Secretary of State’s records in good standing, the LLC may then file a Statement of Change Changing the Registered Agent Information to designate itself as its own registered agent. The $10.00 change fee applies to that subsequent filing.
Can the same individual or organization serve as registered agent for multiple Colorado entities?
Yes. Neither § 7-90-701, C.R.S., nor any other provision of Title 7 limits the number of entities for which a single individual or entity may serve as registered agent in Colorado. An individual who meets all eligibility requirements—age, Colorado residency or usual place of business, and a valid Colorado driver’s license or identification card—may be designated as the registered agent for an unlimited number of Colorado entities. The same applies to an entity agent that remains in good standing and maintains a usual place of business in Colorado. A person serving as an agent for multiple entities must continue to satisfy all eligibility conditions for each entity at all times the designation remains in effect.
What happens if my registered agent resigns in Colorado?
A registered agent who has resigned or otherwise ceased to serve in that capacity may deliver a Statement of Change Regarding Resignation or Other Termination of Registered Agent to the Secretary of State for filing. Under § 7-90-702(5), C.R.S., the resignation statement becomes effective on the thirty-first day after the date it is filed, or on a delayed effective date stated in the filing that falls no earlier than the thirty-first day and no later than the ninetieth day after filing—whichever occurs first. If the entity appoints a new registered agent before that effective date, the resignation is superseded by the new appointment. The resigning agent must include in the statement the registered agent’s name and address as shown in the Secretary of State’s records, the date of resignation or termination, and a confirmation that notice has been delivered to the entity. If the entity fails to designate a replacement agent before the resignation becomes effective, it risks entering delinquent status under § 7-90-901(1)(c), C.R.S. The online fee for filing a resignation statement is $10.00.
Can I use a virtual office or P.O. Box as my registered office address in Colorado?
No. The registered agent address in Colorado must be a physical street address at which the agent maintains a usual place of business—a location that is customarily open during normal business hours and at which the agent can personally accept documents. Commercial or P.O. Box addresses cannot be used as a registered agent’s physical street address. A separate Colorado mailing address may be provided in addition to the physical street address when mail cannot be delivered to the street address, and that mailing address may be a P.O. Box or commercial address—but it supplements, rather than replaces, the required physical street address.
What if my registered agent moves out of Colorado?
If a registered agent who is an individual relocates and no longer has a primary residence or usual place of business in Colorado, that individual no longer satisfies the eligibility requirements of § 7-90-701(1)(a), C.R.S. The entity must file a Statement of Change Changing the Registered Agent Information to designate a new qualifying agent as soon as practicable. An entity agent that withdraws its Colorado authority or loses good standing with the Secretary of State is similarly disqualified. Maintaining a registered agent whose address or eligibility is no longer current leaves inaccurate information in the public record and may expose the entity to service-of-process failures and delinquency risk. The change filing is submitted online through the Secretary of State’s filing portal at a fee of $10.00 per the Business Organizations Fee Schedule.
Is a registered agent liable for the debts or legal obligations of the business it represents in Colorado?
No. Serving as a registered agent does not create liability for the debts, obligations, contracts, or legal judgments of the entity the agent represents. The registered agent’s role under § 7-90-704, C.R.S. is limited to receiving and forwarding service of process and other official documents on behalf of the entity. The agent is not a guarantor, surety, or party to any agreement entered into by the entity, and designation as registered agent does not impose personal financial responsibility for the entity’s affairs. The agent’s legal duty is procedural: to be present at the registered agent’s address during normal business hours and to ensure that documents received are delivered to the entity.
How do I change my registered agent in Colorado?
An entity changes its registered agent by filing a Statement of Change Changing the Registered Agent Information online through the Secretary of State’s filing portal, or by updating the registered agent information within the entity’s annual Periodic Report filing. The standalone change statement is filed pursuant to § 7-90-305 and § 7-90-702, C.R.S. The new agent must consent to the appointment, and the filer must confirm that the new agent satisfies all eligibility requirements—including, for individuals, a valid Colorado driver’s license or identification card number or passcode verification. The change filing must also include the name and mailing address of at least one individual causing the document to be delivered for filing. The online fee is $10.00 per the Business Organizations Fee Schedule. A statement of correction is available to correct registered agent information that was entered incorrectly, rather than changed, and is also filed online at a fee of $10.00.
Does Colorado require annual renewal of registered agent designation?
No separate annual renewal filing exists solely for the registered agent designation. However, Colorado requires most reporting entities—including LLCs, corporations, nonprofit corporations, and foreign entities—to file a Periodic Report each year under § 7-90-501, C.R.S. As described in the Business FAQs — Periodic Reports, the Periodic Report is due annually during the entity’s designated reporting month and provides an opportunity to confirm or update the registered agent name and address on file. The online filing fee is $25.00, with a $50.00 late penalty if not filed within the applicable window. If the registered agent’s information has changed between Periodic Report filings, the entity must file a standalone Statement of Change Changing the Registered Agent Information rather than wait for the next report cycle.
