TITLE 14 CORPORATIONS, PARTNERSHIPS, AND ASSOCIATIONS

Section 3. Nonprofit Corporations, 14-3-101 through 14-3-1703.

ARTICLE 5 REGISTERED OFFICE AND REGISTERED AGENT

14-3-502. Change of registered office or registered agent.

  1. A corporation may change its registered office or registered agent by delivering to the Secretary of State for filing an amendment to its annual registrationthat sets forth:
    1. The name of the corporation;
    2. The street address of its current registered office;
    3. If the current registered office is to be changed, the street address of the new registered office;
    4. The name of its current registered agent;
    5. If the current registered agent is to be changed, the name of the new registered agent; and
    6. That after the change or changes are made, the street addresses of its registered office and the office of its registered agent will be identical.
  2. If the street address of a registered agent's office is changed, the registered agent may change the street address of the registered office of any corporation for which the registered agent is the registered agent by notifying the corporation in writing of the change and by signing (either manually or in facsimile) and delivering to the Secretary of State for filing a statement that complies with the requirements of subsection (a) of this Code section and recites that the corporation has been notified of the change.

(Code 1981, §14-3-502, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 465, § 1.)

COMMENT

This section contains a requirement that the registered agent must notify both the Secretary of State and the corporation of a change in address. Unlike the Business Code counterpart, subsection (b) requires that the registered agent's written statement to the Secretary of State concerning the change of address recite that the corporation has been notified of the change. While both this section and its Business Code counterpart require the registered agent to notify the corporation of the address change, section 14-2-502(b) does not require a statement verifying notice to the corporation to be included in the writing filed with the Secretary of State.
