Appointing a Nebraska registered agent, procedure by procedure

  1. Procedure 1: Nebraska's rule

    Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

    Specimen: Specimen: nebraskalegislature.gov, logged October 2026

  2. Procedure 2: Establish who may serve

    A Nebraska resident, which can be a member of the company, or a business authorized to do business in Nebraska. See Neb. Rev. Stat. § 21-113.

  3. Procedure 3: Choose a compliant address

    The address has to be a Nebraska street address. A P.O. box can be added but not used alone.

    TipWith a service, the record shows its address instead of the owner's.

  4. Procedure 4: Self-service or a professional agent

    A qualified owner can act as agent. Otherwise the ranked agents charge $99 to $149 a year.

  5. Procedure 5: Record the agent with the state

    New companies list the agent on the Certificate of Organization; a later replacement means a new filing with the Nebraska Secretary of State.

    Specimen: Specimen: nebraskalegislature.gov, logged October 2026

  6. Procedure 6: Keep the agent record current

    Filing the biennial report on time ($25, April 1 of each odd-numbered year) keeps the agent record accurate.
