Texas Corporate Statutes require each Corporation that is formed
in Texas to continuously maintain a Registered Office and Registered
Agent within the State of Texas.
If you have a business
office in the state, an individual can accept the responsibilities
of Registered Agent. However, it is normally recommended that you
retain the services of a Registered Agent Service. Failure to maintain
a consistent Registered Agent is the most frequent reason for inadvertant
administrative dissolution and loss of corporate status. This often
results when your RA relocates or fails to take action upon receipt
of information regarding the corporation. For this reason it is recommended
that you retain a service that performs RA services as a regular part
of its business.

The Registered Agent may be an individual or a corporation; provided
that such individual or corporation must maintain a Registered Office
within the State of Texas. A corporation that is designated as Registered
Agent for another corporation must either be a Texas corporation or
a corporation that is registered o do business in the State of Texas.
The corporation being formed cannot act as its own Registered Agent.
The Registered Office cannot be a Post Office Box. It must be a physical
street address that is open during normal business hours. One exception
to this in Texas is that a PO Box is permitted if the Registered Office
is located in a town with a population of less than 5000.
At the time of Incorporation, the Registered Agent must execute an
acceptance of its appointment as a Registered Agent and that the Registered
Agent is familiar with and accepts responsibilities as Registered
Agent. Your DigiLaw Incorporation E-Book includes the form that Texas
requires for acceptance by your Registered Agent..
Under Texas Law, the Registered Agent agrees to accept service of
legal process on the Corporation.
