Every business entity needs a registered agent. Your registered agent accepts service of process (legal notice of a lawsuit). Choosing a qualified registered agent can be tricky. There are a lot of us out there, and not everybody is on the up and up. Mississippi has tried to make it easier by publishing a list of Commercial Registered Agents—agents that are registered with the SOS.

Why Do I Need a Mississippi Registered Agent?
Mississippi State statutes (MS Code § 79-35-5) require that a business entity appoint a registered agent within the state. Your registered agent is a point of contact between your business and the public. If someone wants to serve you with a legal process (notification of a lawsuit), they will serve it upon your registered agent, who must then inform you. Also, the Secretary of State’s office will send notifications for fees and taxes to your registered agent.
What is the Difference Between a Commercial and a Noncommercial Registered Agent?
Mississippi makes a distinction between Commercial Registered Agents and Noncommercial Registered Agents. A Commercial Registered Agent has registered and paid a fee with the Secretary of State in order to be listed on the SOS website.
Commercial Registered Agents and Noncommercial Registered Agents provide the same services and are responsible for the same duties.
We are a Commercial Registered Agent.
