Moving your office
Switch, in the only safe order
Changing a registered office is a $5 state filing. Doing it in the wrong order — releasing the old office before the new one is on record — leaves your business with no office on file, which is the one state this service exists to prevent.
Step 1
Designate first
On enrollment we file the statement of change (DSCB:15-108) naming the network office as your registered office. The $5 state fee is charged at cost.
Step 2
Read it back
We read the state record back. It must show the new office before anything else moves — the read-back, not the filing receipt, is the proof.
Step 3
Then release
Only now do you cancel the old provider. Mail already in transit to the old address is the old provider's to forward under your agreement with them; everything after the read-back lands with us.
If you are your own office today — your home address on the public record — the same protocol applies, minus step 3: the designation replaces your address on the record, which is also the day your home address stops being the state's answer to "where is this business."
