How to choose (or switch) a registered agent in Florida
- ✓Confirm the agent has a physical street address in the state (P.O. boxes are not allowed) and staffed business hours.
- ✓Check what's included — most charge $50–$300/yr; compare mail forwarding, document scanning, and compliance reminders.
- ✓Look for same-day scan-and-notify of service of process, so you never miss a legal deadline.
- ✓Verify they handle the state's annual report/filing reminders (Sunbiz in FL, LARA in MI, Delaware franchise-tax notices).
- ✓Read the renewal terms — watch for steep second-year price jumps and cancellation friction.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a registered agent in Florida?+
Yes. Every LLC and corporation registered in Florida is legally required to maintain a registered agent with a physical in-state address that is available during business hours to accept legal and state documents.
Can I be my own registered agent in Florida?+
You can, provided you have a physical street address in Florida (not a P.O. box) and are available during business hours. Many owners instead hire a commercial agent for privacy and to avoid missing a legal notice.
How much does a registered agent cost in Florida?+
Commercial registered-agent services in Florida typically charge $50–$300 per year. Prices vary with add-ons like compliance reminders, mail forwarding, and document scanning.
What happens if I don't have a registered agent?+
Your business can fall out of good standing, be administratively dissolved, or lose the ability to bring lawsuits, and you may miss a lawsuit served against you. Maintaining an active agent avoids default judgments and compliance lapses.
How do I change my registered agent in Florida?+
File a change-of-registered-agent form with the state (Sunbiz in FL, LARA in MI, the Division of Corporations in DE) — usually a short filing with a small fee. Your new agent can often handle the paperwork for you.
