Switching Your Nebraska Registered Agent

Changing your registered agent is a routine filing with the Nebraska Secretary of State. The state charges $15, the paperwork takes a few business days to process, and there is no gap in coverage during the transition.

When It Makes Sense to Switch

• Your current agent is slow to forward documents or difficult to reach
• Your personal address is currently listed as the registered office and you want it removed from public records
• You are paying more than necessary for the same basic service
• The person serving as your agent has moved out of Nebraska or is no longer available during business hours
• You want biennial report reminders and a document portal included in your service

The Process Step by Step

1. Choose your new agent. The new agent must meet Nebraska requirements: an individual who is a Nebraska resident aged 18 or older, or a business entity authorized to operate in the state. The agent's office must match the registered office address exactly.

2. File the change form. Submit the registered agent change form to the Nebraska Secretary of State. This updates your business record to reflect the new agent.

3. Pay the $15 state fee. This goes directly to the state for processing the change. It is separate from any service fee your new agent charges.

4. Confirm the update. Once processed, the new agent information appears in the state's business entity records. You can verify it online.

How We Handle It

When you sign up with us, we prepare the change form, file it with the state, and confirm when the update is complete. You do not need to track the filing or follow up with the Secretary of State's office — we manage that for you.

Your new service includes:

• Our physical Nebraska address on your state filings
• Same-day scanning of any documents we receive
• Biennial report reminders (due January through April in odd-numbered years, $13 online)
• Secure document portal
• Business-hours availability as required by law

What It Costs

• State filing fee: $15 (one-time, paid to Nebraska)
• Our service: $99/year (no setup fee, no per-document charges)

Timing

The state typically processes change-of-agent filings within a few business days. During the transition, documents sent to your previous agent should still reach you. Once the change is recorded, all future documents come to us and we forward them the same day.

You do not need to formally notify your previous agent, though it does not hurt to let them know.
