Every state requires you to have an appointed entity to accept legal notices if you own an llc or corporation. Not all states call this person or company a registered agent, most do, though. Some states call the registered agent a resident agent, others a statutory agent. Some even call the position an agent for service of process, essentially that is all the registered agent is.
