A statutory agent is an individual or business entity authorized to receive legal documents, service of process, and official state correspondence on behalf of your Arizona business. Arizona uses the term "statutory agent" rather than "registered agent," though the function is identical. Maintaining a statutory agent is a continuous requirement for every LLC and corporation operating in the state.
Arizona Registered Agent provides this essential service for $99/year with transparent pricing and professional execution.
Your statutory agent acts as the official point of contact between your business and Arizona's legal and regulatory systems. The agent receives:
Legal Documents Service of process for lawsuits, subpoenas, and other legal notices requiring formal delivery to your business entity.
State Correspondence Official communications from the Arizona Corporation Commission, including filing confirmations, compliance notices, and administrative updates.
Regulatory Documents Notifications from state agencies regarding licensing matters, regulatory compliance, and governmental communications.
Document Forwarding A professional statutory agent scans and forwards all received documents to you immediately, typically the same day they arrive.
The Arizona Corporation Commission establishes specific criteria that every statutory agent must meet:
Physical Address in Arizona The agent must have a physical street address in the state. PO boxes are not acceptable as statutory agent addresses.
Availability During Business Hours The agent must be present at the registered address during all regular business hours to accept service of process and official documents.
Age and Residency Requirements Individual agents must be at least 18 years old and Arizona residents. Business entities serving as statutory agents must be authorized to operate in Arizona.
Prohibition on Self-Appointment Arizona law specifically prohibits entities from serving as their own statutory agent. You must designate an external individual or qualified business entity for this role.
Arizona LLCs Every limited liability company formed in Arizona must designate a statutory agent at formation and maintain one continuously.
Arizona Corporations All corporations organized under Arizona law need a statutory agent as an ongoing compliance requirement.
Foreign Entities Businesses formed in other states but registered to do business in Arizona must maintain an Arizona statutory agent.
Professional and Nonprofit Organizations Professional corporations and nonprofit entities operating in Arizona also need statutory agents meeting the same requirements.
No. Arizona law explicitly prohibits entities from serving as their own statutory agent. This differs from some other states where self-appointment may be permitted under certain conditions. Arizona requires all businesses to designate an external individual or qualified business entity to serve in this capacity.
Even if Arizona permitted self-appointment, serving as your own agent would create several practical challenges:
Privacy Concerns Your personal or business address appears on public records filed with the Arizona Corporation Commission, accessible to anyone searching the state's business database.
Availability Requirements You must be at the registered address during all business hours to accept documents. Travel, irregular schedules, or remote work arrangements create compliance issues.
Professionalism Considerations Receiving legal documents can be uncomfortable, particularly if served at your home or in front of employees and customers.
Risk of Missed Documents Unavailability when important documents arrive might cause you to miss critical deadlines for responding to legal matters or compliance requirements.
Privacy Protection Our Arizona address appears on your public filings instead of your personal location, keeping your home or business address out of public databases.
Consistent Availability We maintain presence at our registered address during all required business hours, ensuring reliable receipt of important documents.
Immediate Document Handling Same-day scanning and forwarding provides quick notification when documents arrive, maximizing your time to respond.
Compliance Monitoring We track Arizona filing requirements and deadlines, sending reminders to help you maintain good standing with the Arizona Corporation Commission.
