How to change your registered agent in Nebraska
-
Choose your new registered agent first.
Do not file the change form until you have a new agent lined up. The new agent has to consent to the appointment, and most states will not process the change without that consent in hand. If you let coverage lapse, the Nebraska SOS can administratively dissolve your LLC.
Two ways to go. Name yourself or someone you know. Nothing to pay beyond the state filing fee above, but your address goes in the public record and somebody has to be there during business hours to accept legal mail.
Or use a service at $125/year. That keeps your address private and prepares the change form for you. If you are here because your current agent resigned, missed a delivery, or raised its price, this is usually the reason. See what Northwest charges, or compare what the major agents cost first.
-
Get the Statement of Change of Designated Office, Registered Agent and/or Registered Agent's Address (LLC). Download the form ↗
You can file this online through the Nebraska Secretary of State portal. The form requires your LLC name, the new agent name and address, and a signature. The new agent must consent to the appointment.
-
Pay the $25 filing fee.
Pay by credit card during the online filing. A small processing surcharge usually applies. Mail filings accept check or money order; confirm the exact payee on the form before you send it, because it is not the Secretary of State in every state.
-
Notify your old agent.
Once the change is processed, your old agent's responsibility ends. If you are paying them an annual fee, cancel that subscription so it does not auto-renew. Most agents do not refund the unused portion, so time the cancellation against your renewal date.
-
Verify the change in state records.
Search your LLC name on the Nebraska SOS business search and confirm the new registered agent is listed. Processing typically takes 1-2 business days for online; 3-4 business days for mail, so check back after that window.
Important to know about Nebraska
- Nebraska is one of the states where online is cheaper than mail ($25 vs $30) - the $5 "digital discount" is statutory.
- eDelivery requires a signed PDF upload, not a fillable web form. You must download, complete, sign, and re-scan or PDF the form before uploading.
- No expedited processing option exists in Nebraska. If you need fast turnaround, the only option is filing online.
Have a service handle the change for you
Northwest will prepare and file the Statement of Change of Designated Office, Registered Agent and/or Registered Agent's Address (LLC) for you when you sign up. The state filing fee is yours to pay. The change is usually filed the same business day.
