How to Change Your Registered Agent in New Hampshire

One form, one small fee, done. New Hampshire calls it Form 10, charges $15 for it, and even waives that if you fold the change into your annual report. Here is how the switch works in 2026.

Why People Switch

• Documents crawl through the current agent instead of arriving the day they land
• A home address is sitting on the public record and needs to come off
• The bill outgrew the service
• The individual serving as agent moved away or stopped being reachable
• Nobody is reminding them about April 1 until April 2

Form 10, the Fee, and a Free Shortcut

The paperwork is Form 10, official name: Statement of Change of Registered Office or Registered Agent, or Both. It is filed with the New Hampshire Department of State, Corporation Division, and the fee is $15, or $17 when you pay online thanks to the state's $2 electronic handling charge. Grab the current form from the Secretary of State's LLC forms and fees page.

The shortcut: make the change on your annual report (window: January 1 to April 1) and the $15 evaporates. Same switch, zero state fee. If it is already report season, do both at once and keep the money.

The Steps

1. Line up the new agent. RSA 304-C:36 wants an individual who lives in New Hampshire at an address matching the registered office, or a qualifying NH-registered entity with its business office there.
2. Fill out Form 10: entity details, new agent, and the registered office street address (a real New Hampshire address, not a PO box).
3. Send it to the Corporation Division with $15 ($17 online). Or wait for annual report season and attach the change for free.
4. Watch for the state to update your record. Documents route to the new agent from that point.

What We Do When You Enroll

You sign up, we take it from there: Form 10 prepared, filed, and tracked until the state confirms. If your annual report window is open, we flag the free route before any fee gets paid. Your portal switches on immediately, so the dashboard is live even while the state is still processing.

What You Get After Switching

• Our physical New Hampshire address on your public filings
• Same-day scanning and email delivery of every document received
• A nudge ahead of April 1, every year, with the $50 late penalty spelled out
• A searchable document vault
• Weekday business-hours coverage, no gaps

The Numbers

No setup charge. No switching surcharge.

Transition Details

Coverage never lapses. Anything served on the old agent before the state records the change still reaches you through the old channel; once the update is live, everything routes to us and hits your portal the same day. Formally notifying the outgoing agent is optional in New Hampshire, though a heads-up rarely hurts.
