Registered Agents in Oklahoma
Oklahoma corporations and LLCs are required to have a registered agent located in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma registered agent is responsible for receiving important legal and tax documents including service of process (litigation) documents, franchise tax forms, and annual report forms.
A Oklahoma registered agent is an individual or company located at a street address in Oklahoma. Post office boxes are not acceptable addresses for a registered agent in Oklahoma.
If a company, such as BizFilings, is acting as your registered agent they must be registered as a corporation in Oklahoma. There are a number of advantages to using a registered agent service provider in Oklahoma, but the advantages differ between large and small companies.
Large companies in Oklahoma benefit by having service of process and state documents send to their registered agent's office in Oklahoma. The registered agent follows delivery instructions to ensure that important documents reach the correct individual. Smaller companies in Oklahoma benefit by providing a consistent Oklahoma address.
Another advantage to using another company as your Oklahoma registered agent is that the information of your Oklahoma registered agent is public record.
