WHAT IS A REGISTERED AGENT AND WHY DO I NEED ONE?
Corporations are required to have and maintain a registered agent, along with a registered office address, in every State to ensure business compliance. Are you always available at your small business to accept process of service? If you work from home or if your business location isn’t client-facing, our services can help. We provide this essential business support for just $199 a year as a flat rate on an annual subscription.
At Tar Heel Registered Agents, LLC, we’re setting the standard for what a registered agent should provide with our premium service at an affordable price.

When you sign up for our service online, it creates your online account with us immediately, providing you with all the legal documents you need to file with the State. The articles of incorporation will already have our registered agent information included for your convenience.

DOES NORTH CAROLINA REQUIRE A REGISTERED AGENT?
Yes. Like many states, North Carolina has a registered agent requirement that LLCs, LLPs, corporations, nonprofits, and others must adhere to. Registered agents need to fulfill what North Carolina calls “the sole duty of the registered agent”: forwarding the entity, at its last known address, every “notice, process, or demand” it receives.
