Registered Office

A registered office is the statutory address of a registered business entity, such as a corporation or a limited liability company. It is also the location where the business entity's registered agent receives service of process and other official documents on behalf of the business entity.
Specific requirements vary from state to state, so it is important to review the statutes governing business entities in each state.
