What is a Maryland resident agent? A Maryland resident agent can be an adult individual or an organization registered or authorized to do business in Maryland. A Maryland business must name a registered agent and the address of its registered office on their initial state paperwork.
The purpose of a registered agent is to provide a legal address (not a P.O. Box) within that jurisdiction where there are persons available during normal business hours to facilitate legal service of process being served in the event of a legal action or lawsuit.
Changing registered agents in Maryland is a straightforward process. All that is required is to file the Notice of Change of Resident Agent form with the Maryland Secretary of State. Make sure you have the appropriate form for your entity type (corporation, LLC, etc.) The form costs $25 to file.
To select a registered agent in the State of Maryland, the owner simply provides the registered agent's name and address on the Articles of Organization documents. These documents are filed with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation.
