How to Change Your Registered Agent in Oregon

Here's some welcome news: Oregon charges nothing to change your registered agent. The filing that updates your agent, the Information Change form, is processed by the Secretary of State at no charge, and the form itself says "No Processing Fee" right at the top. Your only spend is whatever your new agent charges for service.

The Official Form: Information Change (Corporation/LLC)

Oregon uses one filing for agent updates: the Information Change (Corporation/Limited Liability Company) form, filed under ORS 63.114 with the Secretary of State, Corporation Division. Oregon doesn't assign numbers to these forms; they carry only a revision date. You can submit the paper form by mail or fax, or handle the whole thing online through the Oregon Business Registry's Information Change option.

The form asks for your business name and registry number, the new agent's name, and the new registered office address. Two details matter here: the address must be an Oregon street address identical to the agent's business office, and there's a checkbox confirming the new agent has consented to the appointment.

Oregon's Change of Registered Agent Fee: $0

The state's Business Registry fee schedule lists the change of registered agent at $0.00 for corporations and LLCs, and the form repeats it. Very few filings in Oregon are free, so enjoy this one.

Steps to Change Your Registered Agent in Oregon

1. Choose a new registered agent who qualifies under ORS 63.111. That means an individual who resides in Oregon or a business entity authorized here, with a business office identical to the registered office. The address must be a physical street address; Oregon specifically rules out commercial mail receiving agencies, mail forwarding businesses, and virtual offices.
2. Complete the Information Change form (or the equivalent online filing in the Oregon Business Registry).
3. Submit it to the Corporation Division. There's no fee to pay, so nothing slows the filing down.
4. Confirm the update by checking your entry in the state's business registry search a few business days later.

Common Reasons for Changing Registered Agents

Privacy protection. If you've been serving as your own agent, your address sits in the public record where anyone can find it. A professional service puts our address there instead.

Service quality. Slow scanning or a missed document is more than an annoyance; it can eat into a legal response deadline.

Price. Plenty of agent services charge two or three times as much as we do, then tack on fees for scanning or portal access.

Business changes. A move, an office closing, or a restructuring can make the current arrangement impractical.

Availability. Serving as your own agent means being at the listed address during business hours. Travel and irregular schedules make that hard to sustain.
