Some facts you should know about a statutory agent in Ohio:

"Statutory agent", "registered agent" and "resident agent" are three names for the same thing: an agent authorized by a company to receive documents and notices. (Since the three terms all refer to a Resident of the state acting as an AGENT, we have coined the term "ragent" to include them all).

The statutory agent must be either (1) a domestic company formed under Ohio corporate law (2) a foreign corporation authorized to transact business in Ohio (3) an adult individual who resides in Ohio. Because neither an LLC (limited liability company) formed under Ohio law nor a foreign LLC is specifically mentioned as eligible to be a registered agent, an inquiry to the Ohio Secretary of State office is recommended if your agent is a limited liability company.

It is important to note that the statutory agent must have an Ohio street address rather than a post office box and that the statutory agent must sign a consent to be statutory agent and file it with the Ohio Secretary of State.
