Every business entity filed in the office of the Secretary of State pursuant to Title 7 of the Nevada Revised Statutes is required to appoint and maintain a registered agent who resides or is located in this state, upon whom all legal process and any demand or notice authorized by law may be served. See NRS 14.020. |
|
The registered agent has the primary responsibility for receiving notices of litigation (service of process) for the entity. The registered agent also receives annual report notifications and notices of default or revocation from the Secretary of State and may receive notices from other state agencies on behalf of the entity.
Any natural person or entity residing or located in the state of Nevada may register with the Secretary of State his willingness to serve as the registered agent of a Nevada entity or a foreign qualified entity. This registered agent list may be found on the Secretary of State's web site at http://www.nvsos.gov/business/comm_rec/ralist/. Nevada has an active registered agent industry that provides registered agent and associated services to entities desiring to organize under the laws of Nevada or qualify to do business here. The Nevada Resident Agents Association (NRAA) is an association that brings registered agents together to discuss and promote issues that are of common interest to the industry. For more information on the NRAA, please visit their web site at http://www.nraa.biz/ . |
