Arizona Corporate Statutes require each Corporation that is formed
in Arizona to continuously maintain a Registered Office and Registered
Agent within the State of Arizona.
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 Arizona. A corporation that is designated as Registered
Agent for another corporation must either be a Arizona corporation
or a corporation that is registered o do business in the State of
Arizona.
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 self generates the Registered
Agent acceptance as an attachment to the Articles of Incorporation.
The Registered Agent must sign this statement and it should be submitted
to the Secretary of State attached to the Articles of Incorporation.
Under Arizona Law, the Registered Agent agrees to accept service
of legal process on the Corporation.
You are also obligated to file with the State of Arizona in the event
that you wish to change your registered agent or in the event that
the address of the registered agent changes. This can be accomplished
on your annual report that you are required to file with the state.
There is a separate charge for filing a change of registered agent
when a change is made other than on the annual report statement.
