Introducing Michigan Registered Agent: Your Legal Guardians

Michigan Registered Agent

$10/month or $100/year  ·  per company, per state  ·  flat since 2007  ·  phone call the day you're served

Michigan law requires every LLC, corporation, and LP to keep a registered agent — the entity's official address for service of process and state mail — with a physical Michigan street address, for as long as the entity exists. Rapid Registered Agent is that agent for $10 a month or $100 a year, the same price in every state, with no packages, no setup fee, and no renewal surprises. We have done this since 2007.

What Michigan requires of your registered agent

• A physical street address in Michigan — not a PO box, not a mail-forwarding box.
• Someone there during normal business hours to accept service of process in person.
• A Michigan resident, or an entity authorized to do business in Michigan.
• Prompt forwarding of everything received. Michigan treats service on your agent as legal notice to you, whether or not the papers ever reach your desk.

The filing office for your registered agent and your entity is the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA). If your company is ever left without an agent on record, Michigan can strip its good standing — the status banks, lenders, and buyers check — until the default is cured.

Michigan compliance your agent should keep you ahead of

• Annual report. Every Michigan LLC files the Annual Statement with the LARA by February 15. The fee is $25, and you confirm your agent and addresses at the same time.
• Miss the deadline and Michigan marks the entity delinquent and, after a notice-and-cure window, administratively dissolves it. Reinstatement means back filings, penalties, and a reinstatement fee.
• Foreign entities: if you formed in Michigan but operate elsewhere, you keep a Michigan agent here and a registered agent in your home state too.

We keep track of what Michigan needs from you and send reminders in time. We do not file anything for you or charge you to "manage" it — we just make sure nothing lapses because a deadline slipped past you.

What our Michigan service includes

• A phone call the day you are served. Not just a scan in your inbox — an actual call, because a lawsuit has a response clock.
• Our Michigan address on the public record, not yours. Service of process and state mail come to us.
• Same-day handling. Documents are scanned and posted to your account the day they arrive, with email and optional text or fax alerts.
• Unlimited contacts per company, and separate contacts per state if you register in more than one.
• Your Michigan filing forms and instructions — formation, change of agent, and any state filing — in your dashboard the moment you order.
• The same price every year. $10 a month or $100 a year, per company, per state. No upsells, no fee to forward your documents.
