Registered Agent in Georgia: What It Is, How It Works, and Why You Need One

Georgia requires every LLC to maintain a registered agent under O.C.G.A. 14-11-209. Eligible agents are individual Georgia residents, a domestic corporation or another domestic LLC, and foreign corporations or LLCs with a certificate of authority. Because the statute says “another domestic limited liability company,” a Georgia LLC cannot serve as its own agent. The address must be a Georgia street address where the agent is located; a post office box or mail drop may not be used. Failing to maintain an agent is a ground for administrative dissolution under 14-11-603.

Registered Agent in Iowa: What It Is, How It Works, and Why You Need One

Iowa Code 489.115 requires every LLC to designate and maintain a registered agent who must have a place of business in Iowa. The statute enumerates no eligibility categories and sets no street-address, PO box or business-hours rule. Designating an agent affirms that the agent has consented to serve. Being without an agent, or having an agent with no Iowa place of business, for 60 days or more is a ground for administrative dissolution under 489.708, with 60 days after notice to cure. The 2023 recodification moved the former 489.115 to 489.117.

The address must include building and suite number, street name or rural route box number, city, state and zip.
