Registered Office Services
1st: What is a Registered Office? Do we use Registered Agents in PA?In Pennsylvania we utilize "Registered Offices" rather than "Registered Agents." The purpose of a Registered Office is to assure that a company is amenable to service. That is why you MUST use a street address and NOT a PO Box. We do not strictly use Registered Agents here and no Registered Agent name is required to be put on any form. If you do not have a street address in PA you must utilize the services of a Registered Office Provider which is a company that provides Registered Office services.
The sections that deal with Registered Offices and Registered Office Providers are Secitons 1103, 1507, 108, 109. Failure to maintain a registered office puts a company in violation of section 1507 which requires a company to "continuously maintain" a registered office.
Registered Office Provider services are offered by aaAgent Services, LLC ( go to: www.aaagentservices.com ).
