Registered agent requirements in Kansas
Registered agent requirements in Kansas
Kansas is resident agent country - the statutes use that older term rather than “registered agent,” and the requirement sits in the Business Entity Standard Treatment (BEST) Act rather than in each entity’s own code. K.S.A. 17-7925 directs that “every covered entity shall have and maintain in this state a resident agent,” alongside the registered office mandate of K.S.A. 17-7924, sweeping corporations, LLCs, LPs, and LLPs under one uniform rule. The agent may be an individual resident, the entity itself acting through its Kansas principal office, or another domestic or authorized foreign entity. Kansas’s General Corporation Code, closely modeled on Delaware’s, and its Delaware-style Revised LLC Act both defer to these BEST Act provisions.
Filing costs dropped in 2026, when the Secretary of State pushed through fee reductions that aligned LLC formation with the corporation rate: Articles of Organization and Articles of Incorporation each now run $85 online or $90 on paper. Filings can be submitted through the Secretary of State’s online business services or mailed to the Memorial Hall offices in Topeka, with online submissions processing fastest.
Kansas also abandoned the annual report. In its place, every business files a biennial information report - due by April 15 for for-profits (June 15 for nonprofits), in years matching the parity of the formation year, so an entity formed in an even year reports each succeeding even year. The fee is $90 online or $110 by paper. The state builds in an unusually explicit safety net: a 3-month delinquency period follows the due date, after which the entity forfeits its authority and is locked out of making any filing until it submits the overdue reports and reinstates. Forfeiture notices go to the resident agent, which is precisely why a defunct or inattentive agent is the most dangerous compliance gap a Kansas company can have.
FreeRegisteredAgent.com covers Kansas through InCorp’s resident agent network: your first year of service is free, then $129 per year, with the every-other-April deadline tracked for you.
Kansas registered agent FAQ
- Can I be my own resident agent in Kansas?
- Yes. Kansas calls the role a resident agent, and K.S.A. 17-7925 requires every covered entity to maintain one at a Kansas registered office. The agent may be an individual Kansas resident, the entity's own principal office in the state, or another authorized entity.
- Does Kansas require an annual report?
- Not anymore. Kansas replaced annual reports with biennial information reports: for-profit entities file every two years by April 15, matching the parity of their formation year, at $90 online or $110 on paper. A 3-month delinquency window follows before forfeiture.
- What happens if my Kansas LLC misses its information report?
- After the April 15 due date and the 3-month delinquency period, the entity forfeits its status and cannot file anything else with the Secretary of State until it submits the past-due reports and completes reinstatement.
- How much does a registered agent cost in Kansas?
- Commercial resident agent services in Kansas typically cost $100 to $300 per year. FreeRegisteredAgent.com provides the first year of Kansas resident agent service free through InCorp, then $129 per year.
