New Mexico LLCs file no Secretary of State annual report — staying without a registered agent for 30 days is still how the state can revoke the company

A registered agent is the person or company who can be handed a lawsuit for the business. It is not a mailbox. A registered agent is also called a statutory agent, or an agent for service of process. Handing over those court papers is called service of process. New Mexico’s LLC statute uses the words registered agent and registered office. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5 says a limited liability company shall maintain both in New Mexico. The office that keeps the list is the Secretary of State. That is the official title. Older sentences in the same Act still say “commission.” The bracket in the official text says that word now means the Secretary of State. The first papers that name the office and the agent are the articles of organization and the agent’s statement accepting the job. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-8 requires the street of the initial registered office and the agent’s name. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-9 requires that acceptance statement with the articles. 12.3.4.11 NMAC lists the domestic LLC documents as those two papers. That is the complete list. There is no Secretary of State annual report for an LLC, and no biennial report for an LLC. Corporations file a biennial report under a different Act, the Corporate Reports Act. That paper is not an LLC duty. Because there is no recurring LLC report to miss, the revocation trigger is the agent. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-66.1 says the company may be revoked if it has failed for 30 days to appoint and maintain a registered agent, or failed for 30 days after a change of office or agent to file the statement of change. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-63 prices that LLC statement of change at $20. Reinstatement is NMSA 1978 § 53-19-66.2. Apply within two years. Reinstatement relates back. This page is the New Mexico rule and the dated prices. It does not reprint vendor cards from another state.

A registered agent is not a virtual mailbox. We do not score mailbox suites, virtual offices, or Google Business Profile eligibility here. New Mexico wants a registered office in this state and a registered agent who can take court papers. If you need scans of catalogs, that is a different product on a different site.

What New Mexico actually requires

In plain language. New Mexico wants a person or company who can be handed court papers at a New Mexico street. The statute calls that person the registered agent. You name the agent on the articles of organization, and the agent files a statement accepting the job. An LLC does not file a Secretary of State annual report. A corporation’s biennial report is a different law. If the LLC stays without a registered agent for 30 days, or waits 30 days to file a change, the Secretary of State may revoke the company. You can apply to put it back within two years. Check the live name on the Business Search before you file.

NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5 is how New Mexico names the agent today. A limited liability company shall maintain in New Mexico a registered office, which may be the same as the company’s principal place of business, and a registered agent for service of process. That agent is either an individual resident of New Mexico; a domestic corporation, limited liability company, or partnership that has a place of business in New Mexico that is the same as the registered office; or a foreign corporation, limited liability company, or partnership authorized to transact business in New Mexico that has a place of business the same as the registered office. That is the live list. We print it. We do not invent a shorter one. The section does not print Kansas’s sentence that the company itself may serve. A domestic limited liability company may be someone’s agent when its place of business is the registered office. That sentence is about who may hold the job. It is not a printed permission for the represented LLC to name itself. We do not invent that permission.

ZenBusiness’s New Mexico page, last updated September 18, 2026, cites NM Statute § 53-11-11 for who may serve. That section is a corporation statute. LegalZoom’s New Mexico article, updated April 30, 2026, also cites § 53-11-11 for corporations and says other entity types have similar statutes. The LLC section we opened is NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5. The three categories are close. We print the LLC section and the vendor cites to the corporation section. We do not treat § 53-11-11 as the LLC statute.

The same vendors say you can be your own registered agent. Northwest’s New Mexico page says you can act as your own registered agent. Bizee’s New Mexico page says you can serve if you are at least 18, have a New Mexico street, and can be present during business hours. LegalZoom’s article says you can serve if you are a New Mexico resident with a physical address. ZenBusiness’s page says it is legal to serve as your own registered agent. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5 lists an individual resident of New Mexico. It does not print an age of 18. It does not print Kansas’s “the company itself may serve” line. We print the statute’s individual-resident category and those vendor sentences. We do not invent an age, and we do not invent self-as-company.

NMSA 1978 § 53-19-8 is what the articles of organization must say. They set forth a name; the street address of the initial registered office and the name of the initial registered agent at that address; the street address of the current principal place of business if it is different; the period of duration if it is not perpetual; a statement if management is vested in a manager; a statement if the company may be a single-member company; and any other lawful provision. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-9 says the organizer files the signed articles and the statement of the person appointed registered agent, accepting the appointment. That acceptance sits with the first paper. It is not a Florida-style acceptance filed later as its own Sunbiz record. It is not Kentucky’s rule that the appointment waits unless the agent signs. We print the New Mexico acceptance statement. We do not import those other papers. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-63 prices the original articles and the certificate of organization at $50. Bizee’s New Mexico page names a $50 online filing fee. Those two $50 lines match. Northwest’s New Mexico LLC page says articles cost $52, a $50 base plus a $2 online transaction fee. We print the statute’s $50, Bizee’s $50, and Northwest’s $52 pair. We do not invent a fourth formation number. That first paper is a first paper. It is not the registered-agent job.

12.3.4.11 NMAC is the document list this page will not stretch. A domestic limited liability company shall comply with the Limited Liability Company Act, NMSA 1978 Sections 53-19-1 through 53-19-74. The documents required are articles of organization and a statement designating the registered agent and office. That is the complete list on the rule we opened. There is no annual-report line and no biennial-report line. Bizee’s New Mexico page says, “Annual report due: No annual report required.” Northwest’s New Mexico LLC page says New Mexico does not require an annual or biennial report for LLCs. Those vendor sentences match the rule. We print them. Missouri also has no LLC annual report. Virginia’s LLC pays a registration fee and files no annual report. New Mexico’s list stops at the articles and the agent statement. The revocation path is the 30-day agent clock below. We do not import Missouri’s mailbox-store ban or Virginia’s $50 fee.

Corporations are a different Act. Say this once so the papers do not get mixed. A profit corporation files an initial report and then a biennial report under the Corporate Reports Act, NMSA 1978 § 53-5-2, and the corporation rule 12.3.2.12 NMAC. That paper is not an LLC duty. 12.3.4.11 NMAC does not put it on the LLC list. An LLC owner who hears “New Mexico biennial report” is hearing the corporation rule. We print the split. We do not treat the corporation report as the LLC’s registered-agent job.

The street rule is the word “street” in the articles and in the change statement. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-8 asks for the street address of the initial registered office. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5 asks for the street address of the agent’s place of business when the company files a change, and it says that address is the same as the registered office. Northwest’s New Mexico page says a physical address in New Mexico, no P.O. Boxes or virtual offices. Bizee’s New Mexico page says a physical street and that a P.O. box alone does not satisfy the requirement. LegalZoom’s article says a physical address, not a P.O. box, and that private mailbox addresses and virtual addresses are not acceptable. ZenBusiness’s page says a real physical business address, and that a P.O. box or a virtual office address does not count. We print the statute’s street-address sentences and those vendor lines. We do not invent a shorter one. A P.O. Box alone is not that street. The live Business Services page we opened does not print its own “no P.O. Box” sentence. We do not invent one.

NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5(B) is how the company changes the line after organization. The company delivers a statement to the Secretary of State. If the agent changes, the statement names the successor, gives the street address of the successor’s place of business, says that address is the registered office, and includes the successor’s statement that the agent accepts the appointment. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-63(I) prices a statement of change of address of registered office or registered agent, or both, at $20. The same section prices an agent’s own address-change statement at $20 for each affected company. ZenBusiness’s New Mexico page prints $20 for an LLC, $25 for a profit corporation, and $10 for a nonprofit. The same page also says the form costs $10–$25 depending on business type. The LLC $20 matches the statute. The $25 and the $10 are ZenBusiness’s corporation and nonprofit numbers. They are not rows in NMSA 1978 § 53-19-63. LegalZoom’s New Mexico article prints one change fee of $25 and does not split LLC from corporation. Northwest’s New Mexico registered-agent page names a change of agent form and does not print a dollar. We print the statute’s $20 LLC row, ZenBusiness’s $20 / $25 / $10 triple and its $10–$25 range, LegalZoom’s single $25, and Northwest’s missing dollar. We do not invent a Northwest dollar the registered-agent page did not print. Putting a new name on that paper is still not the registered-agent job. The job is taking court papers at the New Mexico office.

The live Business Services page says all business filings have moved online. The office will no longer accept paper filings for any business application. ZenBusiness’s page says New Mexico no longer accepts paper forms, so online filing is the only option. Those two sentences match. LegalZoom’s article says you must file a paper application and may mail or deliver the statement to 325 Don Gaspar, Suite 300, Santa Fe. We print the live online-only sentence, ZenBusiness’s matching sentence, and LegalZoom’s paper sentence. We do not invent a winner.

NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5(E) is how an agent steps down. The agent delivers a written notice, executed in duplicate, to the Secretary of State. The office mails a copy to the company at the principal place of business on its records. The appointment terminates 30 days after the office receives the notice, or on the day a successor’s appointment takes effect, whichever is first. Northwest’s New Mexico page says you submit two copies of a written notice and a Document Delivery Instruction Form. ZenBusiness’s page says you stay on file for 30 days after the resignation unless the business appoints a replacement sooner, and that there is no filing fee. The 30-day sentence and the “sooner if a successor is named” sentence match the statute. The statute we opened does not print a resignation fee. We print ZenBusiness’s no-fee sentence. We do not invent a resignation dollar. Bizee’s New Mexico page says there is no grace period if the agent resigns or becomes unavailable. The statute’s resignation ends the old appointment on the 30th day, or sooner when a successor is appointed. The revocation ground below is also 30 days. We print Bizee’s “no grace period” sentence and the statute’s 30-day clocks. We do not invent a third clock that makes them agree.

NMSA 1978 § 53-19-66.1 is the clock that matters because there is no LLC report to miss. A limited liability company may be revoked if it has failed for a period of 30 days to appoint and maintain a registered agent, or has failed for a period of 30 days after a change of its registered office or registered agent to file the statement of change. 12.3.4.11 NMAC(F) points to that section and to reinstatement. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-66.2 says the company may apply within two years after the effective date of revocation. The application recites the name and the revocation date, states that the ground did not exist or has been eliminated, and states that the name still satisfies the name statute. If the information is correct, the Secretary of State cancels the certificate of revocation and issues a certificate of reinstatement. When reinstatement is effective, it relates back to the revocation date, and the company resumes business as if the revocation had never occurred. LegalZoom’s article says the Secretary of State may start administrative dissolution, and that you typically receive notice and a chance to cure. The statute we opened says “may be revoked” and “administrative revocation.” It does not print a cure window inside § 53-19-66.1. The two-year reinstatement is the path the next section prints. We print the statute’s revocation words and LegalZoom’s dissolution words. We do not invent a cure window the revocation section did not print.

Service of process is the job, not marketing mail. Rule 1-004 NMRA is the court rule for serving a company. The paths include an officer, a managing or general agent, the registered agent, or another agent authorized to receive service. NMSA 1978 § 38-1-5.1 is the alternate when the registered agent is dead, removed, or cannot be found. Service may then be made on the Secretary of State. We print those two paths. We do not invent Florida-style 10–noon / 2–4 windows.

Tax is not this job. New Mexico Taxation and Revenue registration and pass-through-entity returns are a different office and a different paper. We do not score tax products. Bizee’s New Mexico page mentions gross receipts tax. That sentence is a tax note. It is not the registered-agent job.

The public lookup sits at enterprise.sos.nm.gov. Confirm the live line on the New Mexico Business Search before you treat a marketing city as current. Headquarters is not the registered office. The Secretary of State’s Santa Fe contacts are not a vendor suite.

The live Business Services page prints 325 Don Gaspar, Suite 300, Santa Fe, NM 87501, and Business Services at 505-827-3600. The same page says walk-in hours for Business Services are Monday through Thursday. The office is closed to in-person walk-in Business Services customers on Fridays. Online and phone service are still available on Friday. The same page also prints hours of operation of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The online portal says in-person services are not available on Fridays, with the exception of Apostille, and that all business filings are online. ZenBusiness’s page prints the same Santa Fe address and hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Those lines are Secretary of State contacts. They are not ZenBusiness. We print the Friday walk-in closure and the Monday-through-Friday hours line from the same office page. We do not invent a winner. Those hours are the office’s hours. They are not a registered-office clock. New Mexico does not post Florida-style 10–noon / 2–4 windows. We do not treat a company 9-to-5 line as NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5.

Cited prices, retrieved September 22, 2026

We print what the company’s official registered-agent page said on the retrieval date. No company publishes a different New Mexico registered-agent price from the national card, except where we note a New Mexico-page sentence. We do not invent a renewal.

A change of registered agent is a separate Secretary of State filing. NMSA 1978 § 53-19-63 prices the LLC statement at $20. ZenBusiness prints that $20 and also prints $25 for a profit corporation and $10 for a nonprofit. LegalZoom prints one $25. Northwest’s registered-agent page does not print a dollar. The LLC has no annual report that could carry the change. The change paper can name a new agent. It is still not the registered-agent job.

Who publishes a New Mexico street

A city is not a registered office. We print only the streets the companies publish for registered-agent use. We do not invent the rest. Confirm the live name and street on the New Mexico Business Search before you file. Headquarters is not the registered office. The Secretary of State’s Santa Fe contacts are not vendor suites.

If you are your own registered agent, the street on the public record is often your home. The statute’s individual category is a New Mexico resident. It does not print a sentence that the represented LLC may name itself. If you hire a commercial registered agent, the agent line is that organization’s name. Northwest names Albuquerque on the product page and Albuquerque, NM 87110 Bernalillo County on the office list, and no street on either. LegalZoom claims Albuquerque and Los Alamos and publishes no street. Bizee publishes no New Mexico street. ZenBusiness publishes the Secretary of State’s Santa Fe address. We label every published city vendor-claimed. Use the Business Search.

In-state office, the $20 change, and the missing LLC report

New Mexico wants a registered office in this state and a registered agent. The articles of organization must name that office and that agent. The agent’s acceptance statement is filed with the articles. A P.O. Box alone is not that street on the vendor pages we opened. The statute lists an individual resident, a domestic entity whose place of business is the registered office, or an authorized foreign entity whose place of business is the registered office. It does not print Kansas’s sentence that the company itself may serve. Change the agent on a statement of change. The statute prices the LLC statement at $20. ZenBusiness also prints $25 for a profit corporation and $10 for a nonprofit. LegalZoom prints one $25. Northwest’s registered-agent page does not print a dollar. The live office says filings are online. LegalZoom’s article still describes a paper filing. Resignation ends 30 days after the office receives the notice, or sooner if a successor is appointed. There is no LLC annual report and no LLC biennial report. A corporation’s biennial report is the Corporate Reports Act. It is not this job. Stay without a registered agent for 30 days, or wait 30 days to file a change, and the Secretary of State may revoke the company. Reinstatement is within two years and relates back. New Mexico does not post a Florida-style 10–noon / 2–4 clock, and it does not run a Nevada-style ten-company commercial-agent register. Northwest claims Albuquerque, ZIP 87110, Bernalillo County. LegalZoom claims Albuquerque and Los Alamos and names no street. ZenBusiness publishes 325 Don Gaspar — a Secretary of State contact. Bizee names no New Mexico street. Process Score has not been to those offices. We do not treat a company 9-to-5 line as NMSA 1978 § 53-19-5.

Service of process, not marketing mail

We grade scan-and-forward of service of process and official notices:

Home-address privacy

A commercial registered agent is how most New Mexico owners keep a home off the agent line. The Secretary of State still publishes whatever other addresses you put on a formation filing. Privacy of the agent line is not privacy of every field. There is no LLC annual report that would list members the way Kansas’s Information Report does. A New Mexico limited liability company must keep a registered agent. It cannot leave that line blank. Confirm the live line on the Business Search.
