§ 3544. Change of address of the registered agent

(a) A registered agent may change the address of the registered office of the corporation or corporations for which he/she serves in such capacity to any other address within the Commonwealth through the filing with the Department of State of a document duly certified by the registered agent stating the present name and address of the registered office of the corporation or corporations for which he/she is registered agent and the new address where the registered office of the corporation or corporations is to be transferred. Once the certificate is filed and recorded with the offices of the Department of State, and until further change, the registered office shall be located at the new address, as it appears in the certificate executed by the registered agent.

(b) In the event of a change of name of a person or corporation acting as a registered agent in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, such registered agent shall file with the Secretary of State an executed and duly authenticated certificate setting forth:

(1) The new name of such registered agent;

(2) the name of the former registered agent;

(3) the names of all of the corporations represented by such registered agent, and

(4) the address where such registered agent maintains the registered office for each corporation for which he/she is registered agent.

The change of name of a person or juridical person acting as registered agent, as a result of a merger or consolidation with or in another person or juridical person, whereby such other person or corporation survives and becomes the successor of the registered agent by application of law, shall be deemed to be a change of name for the purposes of this subtitle.
