How to Find a Registered Agent in California

Need to serve legal documents on a California corporation, LLC, or other business entity but don't know who its registered agent is?

California business records may identify the company's agent for service of process, commonly called a registered agent. You can use the California Secretary of State Business Search to look up the business and find the registered-agent information available in its public record.

How to Look Up a California Registered Agent

Step 1: Search for the Business

Go to the California Secretary of State Business Search and search for the corporation, LLC, or other business entity you need to serve.

Step 2: Select the Correct Business

Review the search results carefully and select the correct business entity. Businesses can have similar names, so confirm that you have located the intended company.

Step 3: Find the Agent for Service of Process

Review the business information for the Agent for Service of Process. The record may identify an individual agent or a registered corporate agent.

Make note of the agent's name and address shown in the business record.

Step 4: Start Your Process Service Order
