A registered agent is a designated person or business entity that receives official legal documents, state notices, and service of process on behalf of your Utah business. Your registered agent serves as your company's official point of contact for important government correspondence and legal matters.
Every LLC, corporation, and similar business entity operating in Utah is generally expected to maintain a registered agent with a physical presence in the state. At Utah Registered Agent, we provide this service for $99 per year—delivering professional document handling, privacy protection, and compliance support with the clarity and simplicity you expect from quality service.
Your registered agent handles several essential functions for your business:
Receives Service of Process If your business is named in a lawsuit, the legal documents will be delivered to your registered agent. This ensures you receive timely notice of legal actions and have the opportunity to respond appropriately within required timeframes.
Accepts Official State Documents The Utah Secretary of State sends important notices, compliance reminders, and administrative correspondence to your registered agent address. These might include annual renewal reminders, certificate updates, or other state notifications.
Maintains Availability During Business Hours Registered agents are expected to be available during normal business hours—9 AM to 5 PM in Utah—to accept documents when they arrive. This consistent availability ensures the state and courts can reach your business when necessary.
Provides a Stable Address for Public Records Your registered agent's address appears on your public filings with the Utah Secretary of State. This address remains consistent even if you move, work remotely, or change your business operations.
Utah has specific qualifications for registered agents:
Individual Agents If you appoint an individual person as your registered agent, they must be over 18 years old and have a physical Utah address. The address must be an actual street address or rural route—PO boxes are not permitted.
Business Entity Agents A business entity can serve as a registered agent if it is authorized to operate in Utah. Professional registered agent companies like Utah Registered Agent specialize in providing this service.
Commercial and Noncommercial Designation Utah distinguishes between commercial registered agents (companies that provide this service professionally) and noncommercial agents (such as officers or employees of your business). Both types fulfill the same function, and the designation appears in state records.
No Self-Appointment Utah does not permit traditional self-appointment as a registered agent. You will need to designate either an individual who meets the state's requirements or an authorized business entity to fill this role.
If you operate any of the following business types in Utah, you will generally need a registered agent:
Even if your business is formed in another state but operates in Utah, you will typically need a registered agent with a Utah address to maintain your foreign qualification.
While you cannot serve as your own registered agent in Utah, there are practical advantages to using a professional service even when you could use an officer or employee:
Privacy Protection Your registered agent's address appears on public state filings. Using our service means our Salt Lake City address appears on these records instead of your home address, protecting your personal information from commercial databases and unsolicited contact.
Professional Document Handling We receive your documents and scan them on the same day they arrive. You receive immediate notification and access through our secure online portal, ensuring you never miss time-sensitive information.
Consistent Availability Our registered office maintains availability during required business hours without interruption. You will not need to worry about vacation schedules, sick days, or staffing changes affecting document receipt.
Compliance Support Utah has very affordable annual renewal fees—just $18 per year as of July 1, 2025 (with a $10 late renewal fee if you miss the deadline). We send reminders about these deadlines and other state requirements to help you maintain good standing.
Simplified Management Our registered office address stays consistent year after year. You will not need to file change forms with the state when your personal circumstances change or when officers move or leave the company.
Utah stands out among states for its affordability. The LLC formation fee is just $59, and annual renewal fees are only $18 per year (effective July 1, 2025). These are among the lowest fees in the country.
When combined with professional registered agent service at $99 per year, your total annual compliance costs typically run about $117. This is less than what many states charge for annual reports alone, making Utah an attractive jurisdiction for business operations.
Utah Registered Agent provides everything your business needs for $99 per year:
The process is straightforward. When you sign up, we provide the information you need to update your registered agent with the Utah Secretary of State. The state charges a $13 filing fee to make the change. Once your update is processed, we begin receiving documents on your behalf immediately.
Other registered agent services charge between $125 and $436 per year for similar features. We provide professional service at a fair price because we believe quality registered agent service should be accessible without unnecessary complexity or inflated costs.

Sign up today for $99 per year and ensure your business has reliable registered agent service that supports your compliance needs without complication.
