How to check a registered agent in Maine
Mainstay Filing is our pick in Maine at $149 a year. To check any agent here: look it up in the Maine Secretary of State listing of commercial registered agents, confirm a Maine street address, then apply the five criteria.
The Maine rule
Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. A commercial registered agent listed with the Secretary of State, or a noncommercial agent: an individual or entity serving as agent in Maine, or the holder of a named position in the company. A noncommercial agent lists a physical street address in Maine, not a P.O. box. Commercial agents keep their address on file with the state. Changing agents costs $35.
