FAQs
Per the Ohio Secretary of State ohiosos.gov website.
-
All business entities are required to appoint and maintain a valid statutory agent. A statutory agent must have a valid physical address in Ohio and must be present and able to accept deliveries during all business hours. Your statutory agent will be served all legal documents regarding your business entity and is responsible for ensuring that these documents are securely received and correctly handled with the proper legal procedures that are in compliance with the law. As such, the agent should be chosen carefully.
-
The statutory agent must be one of the following: (1) A natural person who is a resident of this state; or (2) A domestic or foreign corporation, nonprofit corporation, limited liability company, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited partnership association, professional association, business trust, or unincorporated nonprofit association that has a business address in this state. If the agent is a business entity then the agent must meet the requirements of Title XVII of the Revised Code to transact business or exercise privileges in Ohio.
-
Ohio law requires most business entities to maintain a valid statutory agent on file with the Secretary of State in order to transact business within the State. Without a statutory agent in place, you will be unable to register these entities to do business, and failure to maintain a valid statutory agent after an entity has been created may result in a cancellation of the business entity’s articles or its license to conduct business in Ohio.
-
Banks, trust companies, insurance companies and any business entity defined under Ohio law as a public utility for taxation purposes are not required to appoint a statutory agent.
However, you are required to appoint and maintain a valid statutory agent if you are intending to form, or have already formed, any domestic or foreign corporations, any professional corporations, non-profit corporations, domestic or foreign limited liability company (LLC), professional limited liability company (PLLC), or limited liability partnership.
