Using a Boston Address for a Massachusetts LLC
Massachusetts requires every LLC and corporation to keep a resident agent with a physical street address in Massachusetts (Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth). Your Boston mailbox and that agent serve two different roles:
| Role | Boston mailbox | Resident agent |
|---|---|---|
| Receives everyday business mail and packages | Yes | No |
| Scans mail to your dashboard | Yes | Legal documents only |
| Accepts service of process for your LLC | No | Yes |
| Required by Massachusetts law | No | Yes |
BusinessAnywhere offers registered agent service for $147 a year, so both sit in one account. Before you file, read how to start an LLC in Massachusetts and the full Massachusetts LLC cost breakdown.
