URS gets you set up quickly with a Pennsylvania registered agent and responsive support from real people. Whether you are forming a new business or changing agents, we handle the process and keep you informed so nothing gets missed.
In Pennsylvania, a registered agent is also referred to as a Commercial Registered Office Provider (CROP). We provide a reliable in-state address for service of process and official notices, with fast forwarding and support when you need it.
If your business is already registered in Pennsylvania and you need to change your Commercial Registered Office Provider (registered agent), URS can handle the process for you. We will perform a free status check on your entity, take care of the filing with the Secretary of
State, and cover the Pennsylvania state filing fee when you switch your registered agent to our service.
