Registered Agent in Mississippi: What It Is, How It Works, and Why You Need One
Mississippi runs a commercial and noncommercial registered agent system under the Mississippi Registered Agents Act, Miss. Code Ann. 79-35-3, effective 1 January 2013. A commercial agent registers with the Secretary of State and holds itself out for hire; a noncommercial agent is any individual, corporation or LLC with a physical Mississippi address. A commercial agent is deemed to consent to any company selecting it from the state list unless it files a Statement of Non-acceptance within 14 days, and its Termination Statement ends representation of every client on the thirty-first day.
