Switching registered agents is a routine filing with the Alabama Secretary of State. The process takes minutes to complete and typically a few business days to process.

Reasons People Switch

  • Current provider charges too much (many charge $200+/year for basic service)
  • Slow or unreliable document forwarding
  • Personal address currently listed on public filings and you want privacy
  • Previous agent moved, closed, or stopped responding
  • Business relocated and old agent no longer meets state requirements

The Process

Step 1: Select your new agent

Your replacement must meet Alabama requirements: physical street address in the state, available during business hours, individual residents 18+ or an authorized business entity.

Step 2: File a Statement of Change with the Secretary of State

Submit the registered agent change form to update your entity record. The form requires your entity name, filing number, and the new agent's name and address.

Step 3: Pay the $25 state fee

Alabama charges $25 to process a change of registered agent. This is a one-time fee paid directly to the state.

Step 4: Verify the update

After the Secretary of State processes your filing, check the online entity database to confirm your new agent information appears correctly.
