A registered agent is an individual or business entity designated to receive legal documents, service of process, and official state correspondence on behalf of your LLC, corporation, or other business entity. Kentucky law generally expects every registered business to maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in the state.
For $99 per year, Kentucky Registered Agent provides a reliable Kentucky address, same-day document forwarding, and compliance support to keep your business in good standing.
Your registered agent serves as the official point of contact between your business and the Kentucky Secretary of State. They receive:
The agent accepts these documents during regular business hours and forwards them to you promptly. This ensures you don't miss important deadlines or legal notices.
The Kentucky Secretary of State requires that your registered agent have a physical street address in Kentucky—PO boxes don't satisfy the requirement. The agent can be an individual who is 18 or older and a Kentucky resident, or a business entity registered in Kentucky.
Your registered agent needs to be available during regular business hours, Monday through Friday. This ensures someone is available to receive time-sensitive documents.
Unlike some states, Kentucky does not allow businesses to serve as their own registered agent. You'll need to designate an individual or a separate registered entity to fulfill this role.
Most business entities registered with the Kentucky Secretary of State need a registered agent, including:
If you formed your business through the state or registered to do business in Kentucky, you generally need to maintain a registered agent.
No. Kentucky law does not permit businesses to serve as their own registered agent. You'll need to designate an individual who is 18 or older and a Kentucky resident, or use a business entity registered in the state.
Even if you appoint yourself as an individual, your home or office address will appear on public state records. Many business owners prefer a professional service to keep their personal address private and ensure reliable document handling.
Privacy When you use our address, your home or business location stays out of public records. This reduces unsolicited mail and protects your personal information from being easily accessible in state databases.
Reliability We're available Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm Eastern Time. If a legal document or compliance notice arrives, we receive it, scan it, and upload it to your portal the same day. You'll get an email notification immediately.
Compliance Support Kentucky requires annual reports due June 30, with a $15 filing fee—one of the lowest in the nation. The state also imposes a Limited Liability Entity Tax (LLET) of at least $175 annually. We track your filing deadlines and send reminders so you don't miss important dates.
Flexibility You can travel, move, or change office locations without updating your registered agent address with the state. As long as we're your agent, your state filings remain current.

No setup fees. No per-document charges. Just $99 annually.
