Some facts you should know about a registered agent in West Virginia:

"registered agent," "statutory agent" and "resident agent" are three names for the same thing: an agent authorized by a company to receive documents and notices. (Since the three terms (and the term agent for service of process) all refer to a Resident of the state acting as an AGENT, we have coined the term "ragent" to include them all).

Your West Virginia registered agent may be (1) a domestic company formed under West Virginia corporate law (2) a foreign corporation authorized to transact business in West Virginia or (3) an adult individual who resides in West Virginia.

It is important to note that a West Virginia registered agent must have a West Virginia street address rather than a post office box.

APPOINTING A NEW WEST VIRGINIA REGISTERED AGENT

We welcome newly formed companies, as well as companies previously formed who presently have an overpriced resident agent, or a registered agent whose quality and dependability may be open to question.

If you are forming a new company yourself (or qualifying your company to do business in a new state yourself) and are interested in our registered agent services, just check the first box when you order online. (If you want legal assistance in the formation or qualification process, you may want to contact 4inc.com, which is also affiliated with the Inc.Link® network of corporate professionals.)
