New Jersey Registered Agent: the public record comes first

The official source for New Jersey Registered agent records

Every listing on this page is an official government register: coverage is evidenced by the register's own pages, never asserted. Ordering is a printed rule, not a rating: registers with a verified official fee first, then by verified-fact count, then by name.

What to know before you search

Verify before anything else. The official search linked in the table shows the current agent of record for any registered New Jersey entity; that lookup is the authoritative answer, and it is where you confirm a change actually landed after any filing.

New Jersey's register lives with the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services under the Treasury, not a Secretary of State, and it splits searching registered records from checking name availability into two distinct tools.

If you are choosing an agent for your own company rather than checking someone else's, the trade-off is the same in New Jersey as everywhere: serving as your own agent puts your street address on the public record and ties you to business hours, while a commercial service sells coverage and privacy. The referral below is disclosed where it appears, and the register facts on this page do not depend on it.

Whether you typed it as "nj registered agent" and "registered agent nj" or something close, the destination does not change: one official register, linked above.

Search the entity in the official register (New Jersey Division of Revenue (DORES)); the agent of record is part of the public listing. The link and the register's verified facts are in the table above.

Can I be my own registered agent in New Jersey?

Generally yes, with a street address in New Jersey and availability during business hours; your address becomes part of the public record. Our guide on whether an LLC needs a registered agent walks the decision.

How do I change a registered agent in New Jersey?

File the state's change-of-agent route with the new agent's consent, then confirm the new agent shows on the official record; the register, not a service dashboard, is the proof. Our change-of-agent guide covers the steps.
