North Carolina Law Requires a Registered Agent

Every LLC formed in North Carolina must maintain a registered agent — a person or company with a physical street address in North Carolina that is available during business hours to receive legal documents. This is not optional.

As a non-US resident, you cannot serve as your own registered agent because you do not have a physical North Carolina address. A professional registered agent service like Corpify US is the standard solution.

Tax note: State income tax applies.
