Forming a business in Tennessee, whether it's an LLC, C-Corp, or S-Corp, requires appointing a registered agent. This individual or entity acts as the official point of contact for your business with the state of Tennessee and the federal government. They are responsible for receiving important legal documents, such as service of process (lawsuit notifications), official government correspondence, and tax notices.
