Here’s the low-down about registered agent service in Tennessee.

Define a registered agent?

A registered agent, otherwise known as a statutory agent, is an entity with a physical presence in the state of Tennessee who is responsible for receiving legal service of process on your behalf. Your registered agent must be present and available during standard business hours.

What are the functions of a normal Tennessee registered agent?

A statutory agent in Tennessee furnishes a lawful address where a person is available during regular business hours. The registered agent is accountable to accept delivery of service of process and legal documents on behalf of your company and then forward this paperwork on to you. Additionally, your Tennessee registered agent will prompt you about important filing cutoff dates like annual report filings and other things to keep your business compliant. Your agent can also check to make sure your company is in “good standing” with Tennessee state law.
