Arizona follows the rule every state and DC share: an LLC or corporation must continuously maintain a registered agent, and that agent must have a physical street address in Arizona (a registered office) where someone is available during normal business hours. The agent's job is to accept service of process, the papers that start a lawsuit, and official mail from the state, then get them to you fast.
Universal requirements stated in general terms. Arizona's exact wording, forms and fees are on the official portal to the right.
Allowed in general if you have an Arizona street address and are reliably there in business hours. Free, but your address becomes public record, a process server can arrive in front of customers, and every trip out of town is a gap in coverage.
Works until it doesn't: they move, change jobs, or sign for a summons and forget to mention it. The lawsuit does not pause because the agent was a favor. You also need their Arizona address on the public record.
An Arizona office, staffed, whose only job is to be there. Notices are scanned the day they arrive, your home address stays off the registry, and the Arizona calendar is tracked for you. Ours, through our partner Registered Agents Inc, is $74.25 a year.
Not legal advice. Eligibility details, for example whether an out-of-state entity may serve, are set by Arizona and are on the official portal above.
Service on the registered agent counts as service on the company. If the papers stop there, deadlines to respond run anyway, and the other side can ask the court to rule without hearing from you.
State notices about Arizona filings, fees and agent problems go to the same address. Unanswered, they turn into penalties, loss of good standing and eventually administrative dissolution.
Private mailers copy state seals to sell you things you do not owe. Run any notice through the free triage to see what needs action, what can wait, and what to bin.
No annual report or fee for LLCs.
So in Arizona the registered agent is not one obligation among several yearly filings; it is the standing one. Federal filings, local licenses and any other state you are registered in still run on their own calendars. What an Arizona LLC still owes each year.

Form my Arizona LLCYes. Arizona, like every state and DC, requires an LLC or corporation to continuously maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in Arizona who is available during normal business hours to accept service of process and official state mail. A P.O. box does not qualify.
Generally yes, if you have an Arizona street address and someone is reliably there during business hours. The trade-offs: your home address becomes public record, a process server can appear at your door in front of customers or family, and a missed delivery while you travel can mean a lawsuit proceeds without your knowledge. Confirm eligibility on the official state portal linked above.
You file a change-of-agent form with Arizona's business-filings agency. The current form, fee and processing time are published on the state's own site, which is why we link it instead of reprinting figures that change. If you switch to Registered Agents Inc through us, our change-of-agent order form collects what the filing needs and we handle the paperwork.
Yes. No annual report or fee for LLCs. The registered-agent requirement is separate and does not go away: it applies every day the LLC exists, regardless of whether the state asks for a yearly report.
