How to check a registered agent in Louisiana

Mainstay Filing is our pick in Louisiana at $149 a year. To check any agent here: ask the Louisiana Secretary of State how it records agents, confirm a Louisiana street address, then apply the five criteria.

The Louisiana rule

Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. A Louisiana citizen who lives in the state, a law partnership or professional law corporation, or a corporation or LLC formed in Louisiana or authorized there. A new agent signs a notarized acceptance. The address has to be a registered office in Louisiana, which the law treats as the company's domicile. P.O. boxes and virtual offices are not accepted. Changing agents costs $30. Source: La. R.S. 12:1308, checked October 20, 2026.
