New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire (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. New Hampshire's exact wording, forms and fees are on the official portal to the right.
Allowed in general if you have a New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire address on the public record.
A New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire 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.
The registered agent is the address New Hampshire writes to about the New Hampshire annual report, due April 1 every year with a state fee of $100.
An agent who scans the reminder the day it lands is the difference between filing on time and finding out from a late notice. Our dashboard tracks the New Hampshire date from the day you sign up. Exact due date, official filing link and free reminders on the New Hampshire annual report page.

Form my New Hampshire LLCYes. New Hampshire, like every state and DC, requires an LLC or corporation to continuously maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in New Hampshire 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 a New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire'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.
Not automatically. The New Hampshire annual report is due April 1 every year, state fee $100. With registered agent service through our partner Registered Agents Inc, we track that date on your dashboard and remind you; filing it is a separate order. See the New Hampshire annual report page for the official filing link.
