Principal Offices of Limited Liability Companies and Corporations
This bill revises Florida law to clarify the definition of a "principal office" for limited liability companies (LLCs) and corporations. It specifies that the principal office can be either the company's main executive location (anywhere) or the registered agent's address filed with the state. The changes update related statutes to consistently link the registered agent's address to the principal office definition and ensure filings like articles of organization include the required registered agent acceptance statement. The bill affects all LLCs and corporations registering or operating in Florida, requiring them to maintain accurate registered agent addresses for official state communications. It takes effect July 1, 2026.
