- Does New York require a registered agent?
- Yes. Every LLC and corporation formed or registered in New York must continuously maintain a registered agent with a physical street address in the state, available during business hours. The requirement is administered by the New York Department of State, Division of Corporations.
- Can I be my own registered agent in New York?
- New York allows it if you have a physical street address in the state and can be there during all business hours — but your address becomes public record, and missing a lawsuit delivery can produce a default judgment. Most owners use a service for privacy and reliability.
- What happens if my New York business has no registered agent?
- The New York Department of State, Division of Corporations can revoke your good standing and administratively dissolve the entity. Reinstatement costs more than years of agent service, and you can lose a lawsuit without ever knowing it was filed.
