Change Your Montana Registered Agent — No State Fee

Montana does not charge a filing fee to change your registered agent. Zero cost from the state. This makes switching agents in Montana one of the simplest and most affordable transitions in the country.

Three Steps, No Fee

1. Select your new agent. Must be an individual Montana resident (18+) or a business entity authorized and in good standing in Montana. Montana Registered Agent.co meets all Model Registered Agents Act requirements.

2. File the change form. Submit the registered agent change form to the Montana Secretary of State at sosmt.gov. The form requires your entity name, ID number, and your new agent's name and address.

3. Confirm the update. Once the Secretary of State processes your filing, your new agent appears on your public record. Done.

No fee. No penalty. No waiting period.

Why People Switch

• Current agent is slow forwarding documents or unreliable
• Paying too much — many services charge $200-$400+ per year
• Using a home address and want it off public records
• Current agent lacks digital features (scanning, portal, email alerts)
• Agent moved out of Montana or is no longer in good standing
• Need compliance reminders the current agent does not provide

What You Get With Montana Registered Agent.co

After switching, your $99/year service includes:

• Physical Montana address on your Secretary of State filings
• Same-day document scanning and forwarding via email
• Secure portal with 24/7 access to all documents
• Annual report reminders before the April 15 deadline ($20 fee, $15 late penalty)
• Privacy — our address on the public record instead of yours

The Transition Process

Your existing agent remains responsible until the Secretary of State officially processes the change. Once updated, all future documents route to us. No gap in coverage.

After enrollment, we provide you with the exact name and address information for your change form. File it with the Secretary of State (free) and the switch completes within a few business days.

Important: Retrieve Your Documents First

We cannot access files or historical records held by your previous agent. Before completing the switch, obtain any outstanding documents they may be holding for you.

Montana Makes It Easy

With no filing fee and a straightforward form, Montana removes every barrier to switching agents. If your current service is not meeting your standards — whether on price, speed, features, or reliability — there is no cost to make a change.
