An attorney serving as house counsel in Alabama, who is licensed in a jurisdiction other than Alabama, must register to become authorized house counsel.

The purpose of the rule is to facilitate the relocation of individuals who are employed by and provide legal services exclusively for business organizations in Alabama without the necessity of taking and passing the Alabama bar exam.
